Le K reps the holy trinity of today’s club landscape: instrumentalist/producer/DJ. Learning to play the guitar seemed to be a good way to fight the atrocities of puberty and listening to the recordings of zany Zappa, arsonist Hendrix, and the LSD-inspired cadence of Pink Floyd and George Clinton helped a bit, too. His first major electroshock came when he acquired a MS20 synthesizer by Korg and began to write short Electrotechnofolk (a genre of his own) with a friend under the intimidating name of Caribousex. Finally, the dawn of 2004 brought a home studio and a commitment to weird, tormented, bleepy twisted House and Techno productions on, Circus Company, Floppy Funk, FORCE INC, Feinwerk or Mineral Musica. Since 2005, le K plays live, moment when the audience can attest of both his tremendous musical potential and his professional use of the stage. Its livesets are totally crazy, beetwen minimal house and crispy techno, a kind of Quirkfunky minimal rock+Glitch hop+Freaky silly techno+phatt groov'music+twistedfunkhouse or maybe madbreakelectrofunk - quirk funk maximicrofunkteck, using truncated vocal samples, smooth funky and heavy basslines, cut up drum sequences and space groove synthlines. His music has a very unique sound - it's slightly maximal but minimal at the same time. Maximal in term of arrangement and structure, minimal in term of sounds (even if sounds really weird) . Sponge le K,always eating music and spitting it out!
