A rich, multi-layered confection of playful electronic textures, shimmering baroque pop arrangements and memorable guest vocals from the likes of David Sylvian, Yael Naïm & Feist
He scored Hedi Slimane's fashion shows for Dior Homme twice in a row (Beck has just scored the latest one). Coca Cola Light, Sky TV or Channel 4 have chosen his musics as soundtracks too. The hip-hop producer RJD2 (Def Jux) sampled his music...
David Sylvian, Underworld, Carl Craig and Royksöpp asked him for opening concerts.
He has remixed Ennio Morricone, Chet Baker, Serge Gainsbourg, David Sylvian, Henri Salvador...
