My latest job


Kahn Morbee (The singer of The Parlotones) has always wanted to someday make his own wine.
The result of this dream is called "Giant mistake" and, contrary to the name, it is a great success.
For it's release of this wine in South Africa, a 7 mn film was made by my friend Xaver Walser, an excelent director. And of course, if I am telling you all this, it's because I made the music of this film. Su just check it out: http://theparlotoneswine.com/

I've entered a contest on Groundzero Project. The idea is that each candidate enters a one on one battle, and people vote for the best track. After each battle you win, you face another oponent. And so on untill the final one on one battle.

THERE CAN BE ONLY ONE !


My first battle started today, help me win it : BATTLE 1


The begining of fame ???


Jamendo is a really cool music webiste (thanks to Alan for showing it to me).

Video for Native Instruments

YO !

One of my latest jobs. And the most short notice job I have ever made ! I had to come up with a House track (which isn't really an intuitive style for me) in 2 hours !
I use alot of Native Instruments softwares to make music, so I'm really happy to work for them. Here are the videos with the music of the different musicians (mine is the third one):

A special thanks to my friend Tobias Voigt and R.N.A (RANDOM NOISE ALLIANCE) who made me work on this project with him. You can also here some of his great work in the video.
