Bio
A&R, Musician, Producer on his label NO FRIDGE, the razor-sharp programming of one of Frances most adventurous DJs carry on with exploring world music.
After setting the band UHT° in 2000, experimenting a new style in electronic music, he met the Moroccan Gnawa Njoum from Essaouira, then explored Eastern Europe borders with Rona Hartner (Gadjo Dilo) and issued two albums from the Boum Ba Clash collection.
He then produced, selected, mixed, and realised Labesse, meaning youre alright ? Desired to cross cultures, this album builds a new bridge between electronic and oriental music. It is dedicated to the dignity of women, to outline a message of hope for peace in the Middle East, to end the fanaticisms, and to bring people together of different origins and cultures thanks to music.
Just finished is UHT° second album «Ghost Forest» made on recycle paper, where wood, the wind of instruments, and the fire of turntables collide and combust with each other. In this latest realisation, ClicK directed its message safeguarding the environment and against deforestation much of it illegal on our continents.
To be released next another brilliant collaboration with Leontina Vaduva, the French soprano of Romanian origin, and a gypsy string group for a new spirit of Folklorotronic !
In Dj set or lives, he interconnects different kind of world music (Oriental, Flamenco, Gyspy or Indian) with electronic sounds. His very visual world mix (Theremin, planisphere, beat box, vinyls covers...), including belly dancer and musicians, is conceived as a passport to adventure. No visa sessions which make the audience jump off the floor !
