I’m using to be commissioned for the following sectors: short film, dance, theater and advertising.
Attracted by the different media and multi-arts collaborations, I adapt to the requirements and constraints of this type of project.
My assets are my autonomy: composition from instruments (guitar / bass), recording voices, programming mao, sound synthesis and mixing,
and my signature: musical originality for all audiences.
I use Peak, Logic Pro, Live, Reason and T-Racks on computer.
One of my albums "raw materials" has been nominated for the International Electronic Qwartz in 2006.

I have parallely developped the Syn-’s universe, a project which refers essentially to the nature facing the machine. I work in a permanent process of research dealing about the mixing of music with litterature, dance, theatre, visual arts or the video.
In this large artistic framework, I use the indispensable tools that are the acoustic and the electronic instruments: cymbal, bass guitar, electro-acoustic, electric and classical guitar + laptop and fx.
So as to make you an idea about Syn-’s works,
you can listen to some tracks from his 3 albums produced by Prasca.
My second release matières premières has been nominee Qwartz [Research] 2005 to the international competition
Qwartz Electronic Music Awards.
The compositions by Syn- sometimes break out violently in tribal and post-indus universe
(Manolo on Juliet (2008) and expect also a carefully and beautiful attention to this scripted, orchestrated, hypnotic and beautiful music, called ambient music from the listener ("matières premières" /raw materials).
Lively and organic, they start resonating sounds with natural origins (recording of voices, sounds..) and artificial origins (numerical sounds) and in their turn throw auditory images.
More than intellectual, his musical conception is sensual and intuitive.
I start working with Treponem Pal in june 2011
I occasionally work for companies and artists: DeAD SeXy BeTty (guitar & bass player / Mix: 2008-2011), Aube L (guitar and bass player 2008-2010), Julie Jegrand, Krzysztof Wodiczko, Ann Hamilton, Rhys Chatham, Von Magnet...
I am the co-fonder of the independent label Prasca, oriented towards music coming from the post-rock movement: international post-indus, ambient and experimental productions. The global project is gathering the different forms of arts.
