Félix Dupuis began writing Toward Happiness in 2023. The album marks a new milestone in his creative process: not only did he step into a proper recording studio for the first time (Amaury Sauvé’s Apiary Studio in Laval), but this time he also brought his band along.
Initially envisioned as a narrative of healing, the record quickly morphed into a raw document of a chaotic, spiraling daily life. Drawing heavily from post-punk and the Windmill scene, the tracks veer between paranoid, noise-driven peaks and cold, ethereal depths. Built on sharp contrasts, Toward Happiness chronicles a descent into hell, grasping for faint glimmers of hope amid the self-destruction.
With the luminous and vulnerable epilogue "One & The Same”, Feldup unveils the centerpiece of his new project, closing out an album designed as an immersive journey through memory and personal recovery.
