mad frenchman, also known as Pepe LePews (don't ask why it's obvious, as christened by DJ Sasha).
Been making music since moving to London in 1985. Started studio life at ZTT with Trevor Horn, then moved on working for a period with Jeff Wayne, and joined forced with Sasha when he debuted his remixing/production career in 1992. Made all of Sasha's tracks and remixes from '92 to '96 with Tom Frederikse engineering, and 3 albums with M-People, starting with their first hit One Night In Heaven.
Met my best friend and the most talented muthafucka in the world Andy 'Droid' Page in '97 with Sasha, and made timeless classics such as Baja and Rabbitweed.
Also started Farmatronics with Andy, remixing some fun trax and writing mad tunes unknown to most. Then did Pariah with Rowan Blades, and two years ago started the Weird Continental Types with Barry Jamieson, playing our first gig at Glastonbury festival 2004. In the last couple of years, rebuilt Jeff Wayne's War of the Worlds from its original 1976 tape recordings, and mixed it it stereo and surround sound with Gary Langan (of Art Of Noise fame); then put together the live UK tour of the same in 2006 and played keyboards and Persian Tar in the Black Smoke Band.
Moved over to the States a couple of years ago, and started teaching at Full Sail University in Orlando. Still in and out of touring the UK and the rest of the world, but the Florida sunshine is an enjoyable treasure after too many years of ol' blighty!.. make
