About Me

Hi, I play the piano (ok, you can't hear it right now so much) and the analog synth. I studied jazz and classical music in Amsterdam's conservatory and before that in Perpignan, my hometown. I switched to electronics in gigs about 1 year ago for 3 main reasons:
-I liked it, it was a lot of fun
-I was fed up playing all the crappy pianos all around europe
-I kind of were at a point where I needed fresh ideas in music and to figure out what to do with the piano
So eventually I did figure out what to play on the piano and I more and more feel like playing it again... the only thing missing is the piano...
Even tough I live in Paris I mainly hang and play with my Amsterdam friends since they are great and since I still haven't try to reach anybody in Paris yet. I also play with Ayankoko, a weird chinamen from perpignan who trips on putting cds into a line6 pedal.
I work as a co-repetitor for classical singers in Paris since a couple of months. Damned I hate bios.
