Parisian artist, producer, and director Sandór Waïss discusses the diverse aspects of human life with Wonderland

Contemplating the meeting of beauty and cruelty across his debut album

02 May 2023

“Our world is made up of so much beauty and horrors at the same time… It explores this inner conflict, and the ray of hopes that soothes it” says Waïss. Through his expert music making skills, the creative is able to explore these grand questions, which he says listeners hope take away “Empathy and kindness for others”.

Sandor Waïss’ hotly anticipated album, Broken Blue, takes you on an intensive journey that merges cinema, pop and electronic music and asks you to imagine the regular human conflict between the beautiful and the cruel. Waïss’ directorial skills and cinematographic eye are made clear throughout Broken Blue, with the initial three music videos for singles “The Eyes”, “Kill You”, and “Broken Blue” all being directed by the artist himself. The beautifully animated video for his single “Memories” in a stunning exercise in Waïss honed collaborative skills as he works with director Juan Pablo Machado.

Wonderland talk to Waïss about his humble roots, and his journey towards emerging from the shadows as an established artist, and confronting the grand visions of the complicated human state.
