French electronic maestro Tristan Casara, known globally as The Avener, is set to heat up the autumn months with a vibrant new rework of Jeanette’s timeless classic, ‘Porque Te Vas’. Releasing on October 9, 2026, via Capitol and 96 Musique, the track sees the celebrated producer putting his signature spin on the legendary melody.
Masterfully turning the beloved original into an irresistible invitation to dance, The Avener blends the track’s instantly recognisable acoustic charm with driving electronic energy and sun-soaked grooves. The feel-good single serves as a thrilling preview of his highly anticipated forthcoming album, perfectly tailored for both global dancefloors and curated playlists alike.
This latest offering is a natural progression of The Avener’s sweeping 2026 artistic renewal, marking a return to his first love: pure club culture. Highly influenced by the golden era of French Touch pioneers like Daft Punk, Cassius, and Stardust, Casara is embracing a powerful ideal inherited from disco: creating music designed to make bodies connect and emotions flow. Much like his recent collaboration "Starlight" alongside house legend Ultra Naté, his fresh take on ‘Porque Te Vas’ explores a heavily dance-oriented territory while maintaining the ambitious harmonies and refined production that define his work. It is music created to be fully experienced, where sophistication and accessibility coexist naturally.
The elegance of The Avener’s sound is rooted deeply in his unique musical upbringing, which began with rigorous classical training at a conservatory in Nice. By age 14, he was splitting his time between disciplined daytime studies and nighttime immersions in the city's vibrant club scene, absorbing funk, disco, and house firsthand. This rare fusion of classical foundation and underground energy laid the groundwork for his historic 2015 breakthrough, with the global hit ‘Fade Out Lines’ which Francis Mercier remixed and celebrated together at Hi Ibiza earlier this year. That debut single skyrocketed him from local DJ booths to major international festival stages, cementing his status as a leading figure in the "French Touch 2.0" wave alongside artists like Kungs and Feder.
Since that meteoric rise, The Avener has amassed a staggering three billion streams, earned multi-platinum certifications in over 10 countries, and even secured a coveted spot on Barack and Michelle Obama’s highly influential playlist. Now, with ‘Porque Te Vas’ and his upcoming album project, he opens an exciting new chapter that honors the dancefloor culture that first inspired him.
