Biography

There are at least 2 artists with the name College



1 - College is the new cosmopolitan nu-disco outfit of David Grellier. His album features works with Minitel Rose, Electric Youth, and Anoraak and he is also founder of the record label Valerie. College, in Grellier’s words, was an attempt “to synthesize into my music the emotions of my childhood” and was greatly influenced by American 1980s pop-culture, “80’s soaps and an aesthetic which I particularly like: color, images, silvery films and the sun – images of Los Angeles, Chicago and all of the other cities that […] continue to fascinate me.”

In 2008, College released the album Secret Diary, alongside the EP Teenage Color.

In 2011, the collective released a second album Northern Council. The same year, College’s song “A Real Hero” was used in the soundtrack of the film Drive becoming a charting hit in France reaching #26.

In an interview to magazine Tsugi, David Grellier said he was influenced by “nostalgic music”, by the band Daft Punk, and artists like Alan Braxe, Fred Falke, Lifelike, Jacques Lu Cont (Stuart Price), Nicolas Makelberge, DJ Falcon, John Carpenter and others.



2 - College was an alternative/indie/punk band from Pindamonhangaba, São Paulo, Brazil (1999 - 2005).

    I agree with the man below me, it feels more like a soundtrack then an album, but considering the name of it maybe that was the point? It's more enjoyable when you listen to it in that context, especially the opener, cchhiilliinnggg shit!

    New album is alright, it reminds me of the last Emeralds record...drum machines with these pretty cool snyth bass build ups that don't eventually go anywhere and then just kind of end. I mean, it's not horrible but nothing I would want to revisit over and over again.

    @Wonrei great news. I was really disappointed with Northern Council and the weird 50s sci-fi vibe about it.
