Me and Music
I was 10 yo when I began music. I took
6 years of classes of piano. I composed my first music at 12 yo.. When
I was 5 yo I used to listen to the Rolling stones, the Beatles, the pink floyd,
John Travolta and Olivia Newton john (lol.. hum!) etc... I loved bee gees, chic,
change, cerrone, disco and funk.. and In the early 80's the electro hip hop
break dance music.. in 1981 depeche mode, soft cell, simple minds, talk talk
and new wave came in my life... And I spent the 80's listening their albums...and
composing new wave.. In 1989 I find out the newbeat and acid music.. (It was
just before the techno explosion) I composed my first house and techno music..I
was inspired by cold cut, Amnesia, 101 electric dream, etc... I think it was
in 1990 when I fall in love with deep house music.. (just after the "garage")...
The deep house mixes everything I like in music... Big sound, deep bass, jazz,
great voices. (M.A.W., Incognito, Deep Dish). In 1992 I bought my first big sample when
I listen to the KLF.. 3A.M eternal.. etc.. I like it so much ! In 1998 I spent
3 months in Brussels and there I find out the speed garage at the who's who's
land! I like this sound so much .. but speed garage disapeared too soon! When
I came back in France I took some classes of song and I composed my first R'n'B
album.. I found some common sound between "speed garage" and "2step" music,
and between "R'n'B and deep house". And my first love came back later in 2000
when I composed a pop rock album..
Since 2000 I composed 2 Pop rock albums - 2 R'n'B albums - 4 deep house albums
- 1 hard house album.... and a lot of singles... I think I composed an average of 2 musics per week since 1983.
