Hello !
I like to compose, produce and arrange short soundtracks destined for video games. I plan on uploading more of my work here, as I've previously used Bandcamp for my big releases.
I love the sound of the 80s & 90s !

  • How has your music evolved since your last major project in 2021?


Since I've increased my music consumption tenfold, due to the ever increasing hunger that my ears seem to go through, I've incorporated a lot of new elements, learned a lot of new techniques (thank you gear, synthesizer and instrument reviewer son youtube). I've improved my knowledge of music theory and keyboard/piano playing, though I still heavily rely on quantization. I've also been a lot more experimental with mixing lately, willing to push the envelope further, even if my brain isn't used to it.


  • What challenges have you faced recently in your music career, and how have you overcome them?


What music career ? x]

I don't think about this at all. I make music as an expression of myself, for myself and people willing to discover this new "language" so to say. I can still find work as an audio engineer but I prefer not to nowadays, I'm content with my current situation !


  • How has your approach to songwriting and production changed over the years?


Yes, a lot. Especially going from electronic to mainly pop and jazz song structures.


  • Can you share the story behind one of your like “Generation Rebellion”?


In fact, it's one of my favorite songs we've ever made, at the very least in my top 3.


It started as a joke with the stock DX7 picked bass preset (really thin and funky sounding) where I had a really robotic pattern. It was brainstorming really, until at one point it just clicked. I've thought about having acoustic drums, but the E-Kit we had came with a Korg M1 drum preset, which sound pretty much tailor-made for the DX7. I've then made the remark that it sounded like late 80s Japanese city-pop, which was pretty refined at the time and used contemporary gear instead of the usual LinnDrum or TR-707. It was a sonic revolution of the "Neighties" era, 1987-1992. So adding some key changes here and there, a saxophone break in the middle, with a marvelous guitar solo at the end (I only played the part in the duet with the saxophone) and it even had an Eddie Van Halen vibe.


As for the title, it's because I want people to rise up and fight for their rights.


  • Can you share any challenges you’ve faced in your musical journey over the last few years?


Writers block and/or lack of inspiration. A nightmare.

Sometimes a project just "clicks" in your head and you enter a flow state, sometimes it's like rolling a boulder uphill.
