The Blaze is a French music and video duo composed of cousins Guillaume and Jonathan Alric, both of whom have a background in film and photography. They first burst onto the music scene in 2016 with their single "Virile," which was released on Bromance Records. The single was accompanied by a music video that captured the essence of male camaraderie, setting a precedent for the duo's signature style that combines emotive filmmaking with atmospheric electronic music. Their artistry is rooted in a cinematic approach to music production and video presentation, showcasing their knack for storytelling and stirring emotional landscapes.

Rising to prominence with their subsequent releases, The Blaze has carved out a niche within the electronic music world. Celebrated for their emotionally charged tracks that go hand-in-hand with compelling and visually striking videos, the duo's works such as "TERRITORY," "HEAVEN," and "QUEENS" have garnered critical acclaim for their heartfelt narratives and expansive, lush production.
