Blackrain - "My baby shot me down"

Last year I met Dany Terbeche (Enfer Magazine) who asked me to make a re-arrangement of "My baby shot me down" of the band he manages, Blackrain.

It was a thrill to work with such talented artists!

Special thanks for Max2 chorus.

Air Europa - "Volare"

Last year I produced "Volare" for the Air Europa new campaign with Mandarina Films to achieve 3 different versions of the song. 
It was very interesting to work with them and getting to shape a song to what they had exactly in mind. A very good experience!

Papa Wemba - Orchestrations

Last year I worked for Etnic touch studio for the new Papa Wemba album.
Yves Ndjock asked me to write some orchestrations for him. Emmanuel Pezot mixed the album. No release date yet.
Of course I was thrilled to work for such an amazing vocalist.
Here is an extract of of "Union".

"Une nuit... la la la" - musical tale for children

It's finally out! Last year I worked with Jerôme Bardon on a musical tale written by Amanda Sthers. The voices are made by Marie-Amélie Seigner, Guy Maruani and Jerôme.

It's just been released by Trilogy Records International and is published by Jean Davoust Editeur and Star Sattelite Music.

This is a little extract from it:

Czech National Symphony Orchestra - Session

Last month I was in Prague with Yves Dessca for a session with the great CNSO. The wonderful Dusan Mihely was there playing the clarinet. Tomas Brauner was the conductor. We had the excellent Antoine Goubin at the Protools station. A special thanks to the celloist Milos Jahoda with his beautiful sound.
Here is a little track with some rough mix excerpts :

Diane Dassigny - "Les sacrées noces de Betty M."

Jérôme Bardon and I composed some songs for this play written by Julien Daillère. It was played in Paris last year featuring Diane Dassigny as the main character of Betty and Claude Rogen who played also the piano.
It was very interesting as this play is between a play and a musical. We were glad to participate to this project for such great comedians!

Zyx Records - "Paris Bar"

This compilation from Zyx Records featured 2 songs from artists we produced under the label Bobcat Interactive.
"Hotel du nord" by Gianni Lorenti which I composed with Jérôme Bardon and "Je t'aime loin" by Jérôme.
We produced everything with my fellow companions Manu Pezot and Chris Lebled. Tened'or helped us by shooting great photos of these artists, Jean Davoust was our trustfully publisher and Nicolas Lemay did really nice covers!

Mylène Farmer - "Innamoramento"

I met Visa when I was working on the "Recreation" project and he asked me to make a remix for Mylène Farmer. We worked on "Optimistique-moi". The remix was played on the radios and was on the single.Then we did 3 more: 2 for "Innamoramento" and 1 for "Dessine-moi un mouton".

Gem Duncan "C-Lamour"

Gem Duncan is a project we made with Stephane Lopez, Manu Pezot, Denis Bioteau and the horn section of Nicolas Guéret as Bobcat Interactive.
House music, sexy singer talking french love words with a plain hot voice! That's the deal.Gem is a very nice person. Even if he's a moutain of muscles, he is also a moutain of love and friendship!
A special thanks to Yann Philippe Blanc who signed us at Universal/Mercury. He was a crazy talented guy, we were lucky to meet him.

Florent Pagny - "Recreation"

Everything started in a studio where I was an intern producer. One day, I was working on a string arrangement for a song and the bass player was there. It was Patrick Dupont who was part of Florent's band. He asked me if I would like to make a demo with him for Florent's new album.
Long story short, after the first demo, we've been asked to make 6 more. We finally produced 5 and 4 of them were on the CD. One of them has been choosen to be the first single, "Jolie môme".

Halloween resurrection - "Never gonna leave you" by Jes

Back in 2002, I've worked with Vassos Vassiliades on some songs for Jes. We recorded 2 of them with her. Lovecat Music took the project in hand.
What we didn't expect at all at this time was the addition of the song "Never gonna leave you" to a movie soundtrack. It's allways nice!
So it's only a 19 seconds of the track, we barely hear it but Tyra Banks seems to like it, thanks to her!
Nice to be in the credits, even with a mistake in your name:

Ana "Amor latino"

Last year, I produced 4 titles for Ana. We had a great time with some talented people like Manolo (guitar) or Joël Netry (percussions).
Ana was so fast singing the lead and backing vocals with an amazing feeling! Later this year I mixed a recording of her show at the Bataclan in Paris for the dvd.
Here's an excerpt:

DJ Mr JimmyH "Done and redone"

I've worked for a long time with Jimmy. It was a very good experience as we really mixed our vision of music. What we've done is mainly lounge music, sometimes a little house, sometimes more experimental music. When we name a song "A bike on the beach", you sure don't get a pop song.

We've done 5 albums that can be found here and there: "Key west beach vol1", "Key west beach vol2", "In summer 2006", "Pearl Beach" and "Done and redone"
