French DJ and producer Folamour today announces his latest album Manifesto, set for release on Friday, May 26 via Sony Music.
A project two years in the making, recently announced during his return to Amsterdam’s iconic DGTL Festival, the 14-track album sees the Marseille-based artist reveal his most personal project to date, exploring his own vision of “love and freedom”, and welcoming a deep dive into productions stretching the breadth of the house spectrum and beyond, loaded with the signature touches listeners have come to expect from his rich sound palette.
To celebrate the announcement, Folamour today shares “Voyage”, his latest single from the highly anticipated long-play. The single features Grammy-nominated Malian duo Amadou & Mariam, and is yet another example of his ever-evolving and maturing sound. “Voyage”, is packed with fun-filled, sun-soaked house production, guided by crisp percussion, rich lead melodies and warming vocals throughout.

Building on his critically acclaimed 2021 LP The Journey – which has since gone on to rack up close to 10 million plays via Spotify alone – and the launch of his new label House Of Love earlier this year, Manifesto sees the globally renowned producer and selector return with a wealth of solo material alongside a selection of vocalists, songwriters, and fellow producers including Baccus, Amadou & Mariam, Jungle By Night, Khazali, Emmanuel Jal, and Tim Ayre.
Speaking of this new album, Folamour says, “This is a manifesto of my love for a free humanity, of my affection for these sparks that are born from our frictions. When we are open to the other, we can highlight friendship and sharing, which only forges us even more. Exempt of expectations and constraints, we unveil ourselves in a new light. It warms up the hearts and minds of those for whom freedom it’s still a mirage in an infinitely lonely desert, where there is only room for deception.
Born in an era where there was no hope whatsoever for a better future. Unravelled by a feeling of freedom which is essential to create but also to accomplish. Deprived of this wonderful energy that is triggered by the feeling of achieving everything that our imagination can create through beauty and strength. We try to forge ahead; we flourish through the concrete and dance on the pyre of our dreams.”
Exploring the luxurious house and disco realms he’s become synonymous with around the globe on tracks including opener “Freedom”, “Poundland Anthem”, and title track “Manifesto” feat. Jungle By Night, through to more indie and funk-leaning productions such as “Friends” alongside Tim Ayre and “Heartbroken” with Khazali, plus a few curveballs along the way, the project brings together a wide-reaching collection of deeply personal records from one of France’s leading electronic disciplinaries – with listeners encouraged to sit back, relax, and enjoy the project in full to truly follow its journey through genres, sounds and styles.

AMNPLIFY – DB
My nickname is “The Amnplifier”. Why? Because around here my focus is on being a conduit for providing greater outcomes that people come here for. My day to day “work” is living in the moment, and I love helping others concentrate on finding their connection to themselves through their experiences.
Why start a music environment? The truth is I love music, I love writing, and I love life. I work with musicians every day, and I feel certain that I will be until they put me in the ground. I have been managing people in businesses of some sort for over thirty five years so along the way I have developed some “wisdom” from my regular and constant “observations”.
Amnplify your experience. That is what we want you to do here, and if you want to let me know why you do, or don’t, shoot me a message on Facebook.
Hope you enjoy yourself here and find something that hits you somewhere.
