EARLY TIMES:

Born on the 3rd of April 1961 in Boulogne Billancourt, Haut de Seine (92).

Started piano lessons at 4 mainly for the chocolate bar or the chocolate bread roll and the orange soda drink bottle he had once a week at the end of nursery school where his mother collected him. Didn’t last long despite this reward!

Resumed piano lessons at the age of 8 for 2 years, and then again at 14 simply because he had a friend in secondary school who was a very good classical music piano player and he couldn’t patiently put up with his competition.

Discovered “Oxygene” by Jean Michel Jarre in London in 1976 and fell in love with the electronic sounds he heard there. Realized that some of the sounds or some of the instrumental music that he liked as TV music background or selected by TV sound illustrators he had been looking for were similar to those. Thereafter couldn’t go without looking for record sleeves where the word synthesizer was written. Started buying almost all the ones he could find on the market within his financial capabilities at that time.

Bought his very first synthesizer (a Teisco) with a friend at 16 they sold later, then a CS 40 M by Yamaha which he sold as well after a while, and his very first modular synthesizer (a Roland System 700 main console) in 1980 at 19.

    Hey, My french is very, very poor at this point. It's been a long while since I was in France and I live in a place of almost 100% English speaking people. How did you find me? I listened to Basse Discontinue and enjoyed how it moved me into another spiritual space. Thanks. Noonie77

    Una gran composición. Realmente me ha dejado satisfecho en su escucha. Los patrones repetitivos son hipnóticos.
