RedLight
Idea of Mine
French rock band RedLight are gearing up to release Idea of Mine, a raw, guitar-driven single that marks the beginning of a new chapter for the Marseille-based outfit. Released on January 3rd, 2025, the track leads into a new album shaped entirely by the band’s very own creative ideas.
Formed in 2007, RedLight have always done things their own way. Recorded, produced, and mixed in their hometown garage in Le Rove, Idea of Mine is the sound of four musicians leaning fully into their instincts. There’s no studio polish here, just a home-built setup, real emotion, and the kind of urgency that can’t be faked.

The song taps into the spirit of Pearl Jam and The Strokes, while also drawing from the melodic shadows of The Cure and the unpredictable energy of Pixies. You can also feel a classic edge, a nod to The Beatles in the way melody and feeling take centre stage.
It’s a track born from years of careful writing. Since 2021, the band has been piecing together a collection of songs with one goal: to create an album that flows as a single, unified story. Idea of Mine is the first piece of that puzzle, a reflection of change, persistence, and a band that still believes in doing it themselves.
RedLight are ready to make noise on their own terms, just like they always have.
