“Pyromane” - BENJAMIN QUARTZ

Feature

8 Oct

Parisian artist Benjamin Quartz returns with “Pyromane,” a track that’s as hypnotic as it is heartfelt — a slow, burning fusion of samba rhythm, poetic emotion, and cinematic storytelling.

Released on September 26, 2025, the single sees Quartz diving deep into the sensual, mysterious side of love — the kind that scorches gently rather than explodes, where passion simmers in the silence between notes.

At its core, “Pyromane” feels like a contradiction that works perfectly. The title suggests fire, destruction, and chaos — yet what unfolds is delicate and tender. From the very first pluck of strings, you’re pulled into a soundscape that feels intimate and tactile. The guitar and violin weave a fragile melody, joined by the heartbeat of a double bass and soft, Brazilian-inspired percussion.

What truly makes “Pyromane” special is its emotional subtlety. There’s no forced drama here — just a beautiful tension between love’s sweetness and its danger. As the track builds, you can almost see the story: a gypsy figure swirling around a fire she’s just lit, half in shadow, half in flame. The closing sounds of hand claps and castanets make that vision vivid, as if the listener has stumbled upon a private ritual where art and passion collide.

Quartz’s craftsmanship shines through not only in the arrangement but in the emotion behind every choice. He channels samba’s rhythmic heartbeat while keeping the tone reflective, even wistful. This blend — of tenderness and power, of control and abandon — gives “Pyromane” its soul.

In a world full of overproduced, overcomplicated music, Benjamin Quartz offers something refreshingly human. “Pyromane” isn’t just a song you listen to; it’s a mood, a slow flame that lingers long after it fades.

Elegant, evocative, and quietly intense — this is the sound of an artist completely at ease with contradiction, turning passion into poetry and fire into music.

“Pyromane” is available now on all major streaming platforms
