Jean-Marc Segondy was just seven years old when he started playing around with his first synthesiser, but by the time he was fifteen he was already composing songs in various styles of music. After trying many genres of electronic music including house and techno, he began to play trance at some parties in Paris as DJ Bio, soon becoming resident at the Gibus Club — an infamous club in the Parisian underground scene where the likes of Daft Punk and Bob Sinclar also cut their teeth — and where he met Barthélémy Bayona aka DJ Spawn. After playing together for a year, they decided to make a trance project together called XSI. The first XSI album (‘Warning Zone’, released on Mind Control Records) was very successful, leading to bookings at some of the biggest international trance events such as XXXperience in Brazil, Arcadia in Japan and Freedom Festival in Portugal. They’ve also played in a number of other countries including Mexico, Switzerland, Germany, India, Serbia and Russia. Currently very busy in the studio, Jean-Marc is working on several forthcoming albums. One is the much anticipated second XSI album; there’s a collaboration album between XSI and Talamasca, expected out at the beginning of 2009 on Mind Control Records; plus a collaboration album called ‘XSI and Friends’ due out on Phantasm Records, containing tracks from Sirius Isness, Nomad, Massive, Mad Maxx and many more. Jean Marc is also beginning a new project of his own called BIONIX. As a solo project, he can now totally express himself and explore new musical horizons — always dancefloor orientated, but in a tougher style suited to night time sets. His first track, ‘Fighting Shadows’, was released immediately on new French label Escape Records, and Jean-Marc is now working on his first BIONIX album, expected in October 2009, in between the XSI album and their various collaborations. It looks like 2009 is going to be a very productive year indeed for Jean-Marc… watch this space!
