    paper Toghether In Peace (song)

    I was exploring some virtual instruments I’ve got, trying to understand how some of them works. Finally I decided to create a song probably to react a bit to the atmosphere of the world, quite intense I reckon. Because “to create is to resist” as said Gilles Deleuze, or “creation is a power to act” as I wrote in a song, here you’ve got the sound. A cut off of the speech of Martin Luther King for the ceremony of Nobel Price in 1964 goes with this 3 movements songs. A reply to Trump and his court! Enjoy!

    paper No Way Back Home - Margaret

    My project Margaret. A song from the second EP.
    « Binary Code », the new EP from the three piece French band Margaret, pursues its race, sharp curves to escape from the habits, to escape from any kind of control, from the loneliness, to go and come back, to get lost for sure into grainy sonic spaces. Still textured, this material has been made to travel through. The antechamber of a forthcoming LP, definitely. © 2018

    paper The Ancestral Curse (video game score)

    During a training course in a Video Game Studio in Rennes, France, Wild Wits Games, I was asked to compose a War Song for a fight with Demons from The Dark Ages. Here is the result.
    Wild Wits Games is the only owner of that song. Please do not use that song out of your pure enjoyment! Thanks.
