“LOVELY TO CALL YOU”: RENZO RIVOLTA AND THE PARADOX OF HEALING
Renzo Rivolta, the Montreal pairing of Max-Antoine Gendron (Geoffroy, DJ Snake, Marie-Mai) and Jay Lavigne (SAENS, Marie-Mai, Tom Eliot), continues to unveil its universe with the bilingual “Lovely To Call You”.
“Lovely To Call You” blends catchy groove and introspective reflection. Through this track, Renzo Rivolta explores emotional withdrawal after a break-up, oscillating between vulnerability and self-mockery. The artist describes the confusion and emptiness left by the relationship.
Musically, the song is influenced by neo-disco and electro-funk, styles championed by artists such as Jungle and L'Impératrice. Syncopated rhythms, fluid bass lines and elegant production lighten the dark themes.
This contrast between introspective lyrics and danceable groove reflects the paradox of healing: even when going through difficult times, music becomes a space of liberation. “Lovely To Call You" thus transforms a break-up into a journey towards self-acceptance, inviting us to dance in order to move forward.
