The first time we heard Speelburg‘s music, we know we were going to love him. The American/Belgian artist, who grew up in France and lives in Brighton, UK now (yeah, it’s a little confusing) has a couple of quality EPs under his belt, but now it’s time for album mode. On the first single from it, titled “Sauvage,” he gives us the funk and soul we know and love from him. With it, he shares a cool note about how his script for a You’ve Got Mail sequel nearly got green lit.
Getting a script picked up is a cool thing if you’re a scriptwriter, but not for an aspiring musician. Writing a script for a sequel to 1998’s instant classic ‘You’ve Got Mail’ set in the present day probably sounds as dumb as it actually is, but that’s exactly what I had done.
What started out as a fun fan-fiction ode with a nod to the Tinder generation eventually made it’s way into the right hands, got picked up, cast and nearly green-lit. It wasn’t until July of this year that the studio finally released me from my contract, which meant that I could go back to writing my album.
So here’s the first single. It’s called ‘Sauvage’.
