Mosimann
The French Musician Transforms a Beloved French Classic Into a Modern Emotional Journey About Healing, Memory and Self-Discovery
French multi-hyphenate artist Mosimann continues to redefine the relationship between electronic music, songwriting and emotional storytelling with the release of his latest single ‘Soon’, featuring legendary French singer-songwriter Gaëtan Roussel. Released via Sony Music France, the track marks another major milestone in Mosimann’s evolution from acclaimed DJ and producer to one of Europe’s most distinctive crossover performers.
Built around Roussel’s platinum-certified 2010 anthem ‘Help Myself’, originally released during his era as frontman of iconic French rock band Louise Attaque, ‘Soon’ is more than a rework of a beloved classic. Instead, Mosimann transforms the track into an intimate reflection on resilience, self-care and the freedom to choose yourself.
The result is a deeply personal Dream Track — a song that blends electronic atmosphere with timeless French songwriting, proving that the most powerful dance music is often the music that stays with listeners beyond the immediate moment.
Known as an artist who constantly pushes beyond traditional genre boundaries, Mosimann has built his career around combining the energy of electronic music with the emotional impact of live performance. The Swiss-born, France-based artist is recognised for explosive sets where he simultaneously DJs, sings, plays drums and performs keys, creating an experience that blurs the lines between DJ, instrumentalist and frontman. With ‘Soon’, he brings that same philosophy into the studio, finding new meaning inside a song that already carries decades of emotional history, and rather than simply recreating ‘Help Myself’, he highlights the vulnerability hidden beneath the original track. With Roussel’s unmistakable voice at the centre, the song becomes a gentle reminder that growth takes time, healing is not always immediate, and nobody needs to have every answer figured out.
‘Soon’ is the latest official release to emerge from Mosimann’s hugely successful Dream Track universe — a concept that has turned into one of the most talked-about music formats online.
Since launching in 2024, Mosimann has invited artists and celebrities to answer one simple question: “What would your dream track sound like?” He then creates the track from scratch on camera, transforming ideas, memories and inspirations into fully produced songs.
The series has featured some of the world’s biggest names, including Rita Ora, MIKA, Hugh Jackman, Kate Hudson, Craig David, Ariana Grande, Cynthia Erivo and Bob Sinclar.
The concept has generated more than 300 million organic views worldwide, showing the growing demand for music that combines authenticity, creativity and personal connection.
Following the first official Dream Track release ‘Halo’, created with Polish artist Tribbs, Mosimann continues to expand the series beyond social media and into a new era of official music releases.
For Mosimann, ‘Soon’ carries a meaning that extends far beyond the studio. Speaking about the track, he has reflected on hearing Louise Attaque’s music during childhood family road trips and how certain songs become emotional landmarks before we even fully understand why they matter, with those memories forming the foundation of the collaboration and serving as a reminder that music can follow us through different stages of life and sometimes return at exactly the moment we need it. The emotional core of ‘Soon’ comes from that idea—looking back at who we were, understanding what shaped us, and finding compassion for our younger selves.
Gaëtan Roussel’s involvement gives ‘Soon’ a unique connection between French music history and the future of electronic production.
As the frontman of Louise Attaque, Roussel helped define a generation of French rock, with the band’s debut album becoming one of the country’s most successful rock records.
By bringing his voice into Mosimann’s electronic world, ‘Soon’ creates a meeting point between two eras: the raw emotion of French alternative songwriting and the cinematic, modern soundscapes of contemporary electronic music.
Beyond Dream Track, Mosimann has built a reputation as one of the most versatile performers in the European electronic scene, with his ability to combine DJing, musicianship and live vocals setting him apart in a crowded landscape and earning him recognition for creating immersive performances rather than traditional DJ sets. His achievements include multiple certified records, a strong international fanbase and years of recognition among leading DJs worldwide. The release of ‘Soon’ arrives during another important chapter in his career, as he brings his Voulez-Vous concept to Ibiza for his debut island residency, representing the next step in his mission to create experiences that go beyond the dancefloor by combining energy, emotion and storytelling into a complete artistic vision.
At its heart, ‘Soon’ is a song about allowing yourself time.
It captures the feeling of moving forward while still acknowledging where you came from — a message that feels increasingly powerful in a world that often demands instant answers.
Through his collaboration with Gaëtan Roussel, Mosimann has created a track that transforms nostalgia into hope, proving once again that the strongest songs are often the ones that help us understand ourselves.
