My first electro project is called TINP (for This Is Not Punk), to explain my idea of a mix between electronic / bass music and punk rock... 14 tracks available everywhere.
This is when I started to work as a session musician, in studios and to go tour with other artists as a multi-instrumentist and backing vocalist: Jeanne Added, Camelia Jordana, Laura Cahen, Naive New Beaters & Izia, Vise Versa, La Nébuleuse d'Hima, Toby Screamer, Memories Of A Dead Man, Drama Of The Spheres...
2018 - 2019
Kind of a workaholic as a add musician, I never stopped composing my own songs, and there was born HENRY, an electro rock duo with only synths and drums, produced by Frédéric Vectol and mastered by Michael Rangeard, from the Parisian studio Question de Son (Fr).
In March 2012, I released a 15 songs album as Alternative Cult. I wrote, performed, recorded this concept album about all kinds of "Love". 2 shows were performed with guests: 2 drummers, 2 singers/dancers and 2 musicans.
In 2005, I moved to Paris with my former band NEHR... I was able to studied vocal technics, stage presence and
music production at the Studio des Variétés, Le Coach, the D.L.F and Rezonne associations.
1989 - 2005
Born in 1983, I began learning the piano at the age of 6, in Lorraine (north-eastern France).
In 1996, I founded with friends a rock band as the lead singer and bass player.
I studied musicology at Nancy University II and modern music at the International Music Academy.

My Studio in Paris (Fr)
As a multi-instrumentist, I always had to have a certain amount of music gear... At some point I decided to organise all that in one room, that's exactly when I also decided to expermiment some new kinds of productions as techno, or new sound desgin textures etc... So cool to have a place to easily practice and produce!
