"Rest" is deeply reflective and partly autobiographical, a record of Charlotte Gainsbourg's extraordinary life. There are accounts of family history, of grief and loss, and songs on love, art, discovery, pleasure and new experiences. There's a range of fresh sounds to be found too; tracks draw on synth pop, hip hop, French electro, disco, cinema soundtracks and new wave. Collaborators featured on the record include SebastiAn, Paul McCartney, Owen Pallett, Connan Mockasin, and Guy-Manuel de Homem-Christo of Daft Punk.
