In
France, from 1992 to 1996, I have written reviews, articles and have took live concert
photos during the whole adventure
of the industrial fanzine
SYMPOSIUM. I have collaborated with some others french fanzines like OMEGA as well.
At the same time, I have also managed the micro tape label EXPREL.
In 1997, I begin to work as a free-lance sound engineer in the audiovisual field in Paris and stopped an active involvement
in the scene. I only come back in the industrial sphere in 2003, making the mastering of the last albums of my old comrade
47 ASHES, who also created the Gods &
Beasts logo.
In 2005, I co-produced the first
THERAPIE AUDITIVE
festival and I continued to be involved in the others, mostly in
filming and managing the video projections for the bands. I also did,
and still do, the same kind of work for other french live concerts
organizers :
CYNFEIRDD,
STEELWORK MASCHINE,
LES SONS PARANORMAUX,
AU DELA DU SILENCE and
L'ATELIER DE CREATION EXPERIMENTALE.
Still in 2005, I supervised the postproduction of the musical dvd
RVB-TRANSFERT. Co-produced with
INFRASTITION and
OPTICAL SOUND, this dvd is a huge
video-clip sampler of the french independant scene of the
eighties. It gathered for the first time lots of archives unseen or rare, between post-punk,
cold-wave, avant-garde pop,
industrial and experimental music.
I also wrote a dozen of biographies of industrial and experimental french bands for the book
CARNETS NOIRS and have written for the webzine
OBSKÜRE until 2007. In 2006, I have reloaded my own experimental musical project named
VINCI.
Since then, I am helping
Eric Duboys on
the issues of his industrial music saga, mostly with english
translations and photographies rights search. Since then, I'm more or less uploading archives through various online medium...
