Il va varier selon le ton donné de la production, un vaste choix de banque de samples reprennent les sons des TR 808 et 909 de chez Roland ou encore du LinnDrum qui sont réputés pour leurs qualité et leur efficacité.

Si un sample ne vous satisfait pas suivez ces indications sinon passez directement à l’Etape 2 avec le sample choisi :

Prenez un Kick avec une attack longue et frappant dans les bas et prenez un deuxième avec une attack très courte avec un ton sec puis mettez les sur deux pistes audio.

Afin d’éviter de passer dans le rouge au niveau de la sommation une bonne équalisation fera l’affaire .

• Pour le pied bas :

Sonalksis SV-517 Mk2 Equaliser Plug-in

• Pour le pied sec :

Sonalksis SV-517 Mk2 Equaliser Plug-in

Envoyer les deux kick dans un même Bus.

Etape 2 : Mix & Compression

Réglez les niveaux des pistes en fonction de l’effet désiré, le principal étant de ne pas saturer, traitez la panoramique afin de ne pas créer un hors phase lors de la sommation à l’aide d’un plug par ex Direction Mixer de Logic.

Direction Mixer by Logic Studio

Mettez une compression sur le bus avec une attack très courte 0,08 ms par ex, plus la release sera courte et plus elle rallongera votre pied, un ratio de 4.1 sera suffisant afin de ne pas écraser trop le kick avec un seuil à -8 db.

EQ

Etape 3 : EQ

Afin de redonner du punch au kick rajouter après la compression un EQ en remontant les bas vers 120 hz.

However, what I’ll try to explain in three steps today is: how to get a killer over compressed sound like Justice, Revolte, etc…

Step 1: Choose The Right Drums

Everyone knows a good electro track is before all: good drums! So take time to create rich and punchy drums & beats.

• If your old-school midi-composing style (like me) try my all time favorite PlugSound Volume 3 Drum & Percs (VST/DirectX)
• If your more drum loops oriented then give a try to Mutekki Vengeance Electro Essentials.

Step 2: Choose The Right Overdrive

Most of dirty electro tracks today have, among over-compression, a crunchy and noisy effect on basslines, synths or guitars…

There are of course a lot of effects to put some overdrive on your tracks… But if I could only pick one plugin, it would definitely be the GuitarRig by Native Instruments. You need a huge configuration to make it work properly, but the result is here: awesome!

• Select the kind of distortion/overdrive you want to apply (eg: guitar, bass, etc…) in Bank Menu.
• Select the preset in Sound Menu.
• You can also setup everything manually from amp to reverb on the right…

Don’t hesitate to try it on your drums or synth!

Step 3: Choose The Right Compressor

Again, there are a lot of compressor in the market. So I will talk about what I know and use heavily. In fact most of the time, I use the natural compression of my sidechain effect.

But when I want to add a powerful crunchy and pumpy effect, I use the CompressorX by Timeworks. It simulates analog compression and really rock it, giving a warm and powerful feeling.

Compressor X is amazing. Where do we start? This is more compression control than you should need in this lifetime. [...] this unit has it all, I am able to emulate Urei’s 1176’s, DBX 165a’s, Manley variable MU’s, Digital comps, you name it. This thing is amazing. Try it, see for yourself what it can do. (source: www.sonictimeworks.com)

As long as we compress differently, I will give you a different setting that the one I recommand in the 3 Steps To Get A Killer Mastering, but this fits better for a Justice-like musical style, and that’s what it’s all about, right?

So, add the CompressorX to your master or a bus with the drums (at least the kick). This will replace the sidechain. You will compress the overall mix, and your track will react with noises and overdrive to your compression and distortion.

Then set the CompressorX as follow:

• Put the Out button a bit on the right (not too much this would crush your channel)
• Put the Threshold button a bit on the left in order to make the track pump.

Be careful with thos settings this can quickly make your mix more dirty than you really want it to be. Don’t hesitate to test it on several speakers (hifi, headphones, etc…) and compare with other tracks…[/lang_en]

Julie Dennis – MySpace

Julie Dennis AKA DJ Silvatung Julie’ was the featured vocalist on the huge club hit CHAIN OF FOOLS with the BFL project and more recently we have seen her writing and performing with A Guy Called Gerald (Voodoo Ray) for his long awaited album “To All Things What They Need”, writing and recording for the Sensei Records Label, writing and recording with DJ Asle along with recording a series of singles for Circulation. Julie has a recording deal with Yoshitoshi Records (Deep Dish) and her first single “Sugar” with Dyad 10,released early in 2007, has had a massive impact in the clubs of the USA and of Europe while Pete Tong who championed the record from the beginning by playing the Nika & Asle mix has continued to support it by numerous plays of the Tocadisco mix on his Friday Radio 1 Show…

Mastering and mixing are some of the most important skills a producer has to master… The question is how to get your averall track sounds:

• Clear
• Powerful
• Wide

Step 1: Do I Have The Right Speakers?

Ask yourself the question: do I have the right headphone or speaker?

I can assure you one thing, as long as I plugged my PC to a Hi Fi I’ve not been able to master anything. The bass boost was completely falsing the overall mix and when I sent some demos at this time I got feedback such as “Your music is cool, but, damn! Your sound sucks!“. Ask Joachim Garraud when I sent him some track in early 2004…

If you have to invest in something for your studio, it’s in the speakers. It’s like when you recover your sight when putting on your glasses…

For me, there’re two options:

1. You got people around you who don’t care about your beloved but noisy boom boom boom music and you need to work with a headphone: I use you this one: Sony MDR-V700DJ. Excellent and precise sound.
2. You don’t care about other people! You want to work with a speakers, then here are the monitors I use: Samson Rubicon R5A.

What you have to retain of this step is: Speakers are the most important part of the studio.

Step 2: Never Touch To The Master Channel

I never touch the master out. I used to and I never got any good result. I tried to compress, I tried to EQ but nothing clean and powerful came out.

What I advise you to do is to work on the sound of buses separatly. Work the equalization, the compression, or whatever of each buses instead of applying a compression to the general channel.

This needs more work but you will definitely make your mix more clearer, more powerful and easier to modify.

Step 3: Cherish The EQ

The basis of all good mix is a clever management of frequencies. You know that, right?

• A bassline, kicks, etc… by definition will deliver bass frequencies
• Cymbals will deliver high frequencies.
• Pads will mainly deliver medium/high frequencies.

The idea is to try to isolate each instrument in its range of frequencies. Results will be immediat.

If you cut a little bit of bass of your pad and add a little more high frequencies you’ll see your pad will be clearer and the overall mix cleaner.

Anyway, the secret of a good mastering is every instruments used can be precisely heard… Work on frequencies of each instrument until you hear everything clearly.

But be careful to go easy on adding or cutting dB for frenquencies. It’s a matter of precision.

I tried a lot of effects and settings before finding the final and accurate sidechain I would never leave for my productions and remixes. But before getting to that point I needed a little bit of theory:

Side-chaining uses the signal level of another input or an equalized version of the original input to control the compression level of the original signal. (source: Wikipedia)

That’s all you need to know! Basically, if you want to make your synth channel pump, you will need to apply a signal that will compress your channel on the beat.

For me, a good sidechain is making the overall mix pump without crushing the instruments and the stereo.

Step 1: Choose the right signal

Click

This is the signal I use to apply sidechain on the channels of my track. Just a metronome click.

1. I create an audio channel called “Click” to put my click loop.
2. I create a bus called “Sidechain” that will receive the sidechain signal… I will root the channels I want to sidechain to that bus.

Step 2: Choose the right compressor

As a compressor, I use the same effects for years.

This is a 39$ effect you will never leave: dB-D Dynamic Processor by Db Audioware.

1. I add this effect to my “Click” channel to send the signal. I put the Gain button to “Mute” and the Send button to “A”.
2. I add this effect to my “Sidechain” bus to receive the signal. I put Thresh to “-30.0″, Ratio to “LIMIT”, Attack to “0.5″, Decay to “100″, Knee to “1.5″ and RECV to “A”.

You can also play with the overall compression settings by normalizing the Click loop, this will increase the compression.

Step 3: Choose the right mastering

As far as I remember, I didn’t have to use more than two separate sidechain buses on my tracks.

For example, on my remix of Itajai Vibes I used two sidechain buses:

1. A bus for the bassline only to keep it warm, powerful and pumping without crushing other elements.
2. Another bus for the other elements.

In the case you want to create more than one sidechain bus you repeat exactly the same manipulation but the buttons Send and Recv are to be set to “B”, or “C”, etc…

Eurospace

Just a quick stop on my remix… Still the old progressive house vibe I can’t put my hand off… But after the success of Itajai Vibes with almost 3000 downloads on Beatport, I was a little bit stressed… I wish the whole Eurospace EP the same success!

So I tried to move to another direction with less pads and more lead synths like the amazing old-school voice sound from E-MU Proteus X in memory of my gone and regreted E-MU Proteus 2000. And the result is really melodic to my opinion, and close to what I’m really into right now: progressive and melodic sound.

A big thank you to my mate RED-EYE with whom I already work on the track Sunshine. And if you still got time, have a look at Jan Peters’ page on MySpace, his sound is just amazingly inspired. A bit of Alan Braxe, a bit of Lifelike! Just love it.

Enjoy the music!

Jan Peters – Eurospace (Wize Remix)

They simply made the Queen of Funky bassline…

Maybe you would be interested to know how to setup such a bass sound with VST instruments and effects? Well, that’s what I’ll try to explain you.

Step 1: Choose the right bass sound

I’d recommand an old-school fingered bass sound, to give this warm sound Fred Falke have…

Trilogy by Spectrasonic is amazing and features a large choice of Fingered/Picked basses that can definitely be a good basis for your sound.

Step 2: Choose the right EQ effect

OK. Now you got your nice fingered/picked bass… But how to give it this such warm and special sound?

Since 2002, I use the same effect to EQ my basslines and make them warmer. This is the Renaissance Bass module by Waves.

Use the preset Nose Job and have a listen… You’ll see what it’s all about.

(I advise you to adapt the Freq. (Hz) setting to fit your master mix.)

Step 3: Compose the right bassline

If you have a listen to Alan Braxe & Fred Falke’s track Running, you’ll hear that, as a lot of Funky tracks do, the note used are very short and follow or complete the rythm. Depending on your composing level, try to use eighteenth or sixteenth notes.

Don’t hesitate to give me your feedback about this short tutorial. I plan to write a lesson every 2 weeks or so if you guys like it!

Lewis Dene never sleeps! He dropped another wonderful review on Beatportal for my latest release on Sismic Music Bloody Rain!

The Heels ‘Bloody Rain’ on Sismic Music is a wonderful pastiche of 1980s electric synth pop, with a melody that reeks of familiarity and a feel not unlike Rockwell’s ‘Somebody’s Watching Me’.

But don’t let that reference fool you as this über cool Gallic instrumental will suck you in with its enveloping sound with each successive looped bar.

Created by the talented Basile Fanon (aka Wize), who delivers another offering that’s very much in the current big room electronica sound.

Phat, tech-etched and twisted that also works extremely well in Leeroy Daevis and Slow Motion’s respective new wave electrophonic funk mixes that keep you wanting more long after the run out (or whatever the digital equivalent maybe these days!)

Lewis, thank you very much for your support!

Just a few words to tell you the highly supported Itajai Vibes masterpiece, is reviewed on Beatportal by my old friend Lewis Dene! Check this out!

“SNM are Soultan, Ned Shepard and Maher Daniel, each no stranger to the dance arena, while the track also comes with a mixes package featuring 16 Bit Lolitas, Roman Rai, Claes Rosen and Artego, who each offer much to underscore why ‘Itajai Vibes’ is already racing up Beatport’s dance chart.

However, for me, it’s Wize’s ethereal dreamy journey that needs to be heard from beginning-to-end, with loved ones close at hand and preferably at sunset on a sun-kissed beach, to be fully appreciated. Sacredieu!”

Fat Phaze – MySpace

Olivier Huguenard, DJ for 15 years and Emmanuel Plégat, musician and composer, started their cooperation in 1998.They quickly developed a very specific sound in their productions, as a signature, synonym of power and efficiency on the dance floors.Many projects came out, included one in a major company (Fizz), but FAT PHAZE project actually started in 2001 to freely express electro 80’s influences from their teens influences made of enthralling melodies and atmospheres, and entrancing choruses. This parisian duo mixes with talent peppy rythms and harmonies, and mostly uses analogical sounds to transmit their musical universe.

The result of the growing complicity between Emmanuel, musician and Olivier, DJ, is now a matured project with own identity and recognizable style. For integrity they kept through their releases, major artists and producers such as Moonbootica, Sharam Jey, Mylene Farmer, Lottie, Da Fresh (and many more) took interest in their work. So started cooperations and frienship, giving you remixes from/for FAT PHAZE these 3 past years.

Their fame increasing, strong labels such as Polydor, Missdemeanours rec, King Kong rec, Underwater, Work it Baby (and others) invited FAT PHAZE to work with them. Thanks to the confidence various producers and labels grant, FAT PHAZE experiments with great pleasure and opens up on new horizons.

Next step ? one album and one live set?

My remix is charted #20 in Beatport Global Top 100!

Thanks again very much for your support!

Will it reach the 1st place? This is up to you guys!

Sultan - MySpace

From the desert heat of his country of origin to the winter rigours of Canada, Sultan has travelled a road quite out of the ordinary. In the past four years Sultan has established himself as one of the most innovative and respectable djs and producers in the electronic dance scene. Sultan has had releases on various labels including Deep Dish’s Yoshitoshi label and John Digweed’s Bedrock Breaks Label, as well as several compilations appearances including “Global Underground 25: Toronto” mixed by Deep Dish, Tiesto’s “In Search of Sunrise 4”, Dave Seaman’s “Renaissance Masters”, Deep Dish’s “George Is On” which features “Deep Dish vs Dire Straits – Flashing for Money”(Sultan Club/Radio Mix), hailed as being the worlds first ever legally cleared mash up/remix garnering praise from the electronic dance scene as well as rock legends Dire Straits. And most recently “Global Underground 29: Dubai” mixed By Sharam which features three tracks including Sultan & Ned Shepard’s latest releases “Connected” and “Together We Rise” on Shinichi Records.

In September of 2006 Sultan joined world class Dj agency, Bullitt Bookings. Having toured cities across the Americas, Europe, Asia and Africa over the past two years, Sultan has made his mark as one of the most exciting and technically sound performers in the DJ scene today.

In early 2007, Sultan began working closely with good friend Nadia Ali (Former singer of IIO). The two, alongside Ned Shepard, spent the month of January co-writing and co-producing songs for her forthcoming solo Album to be released later this year. Recently both Sultan and Ned Shepard have joined Nadia on tour with Sultan playing guitars and Ned playing keyboards for her Live Show.

Keep an eye out for Sultan’s monthly radio show “Connected Live” the last Monday of every month on DI.FM and Sultan’s forthcoming compilation on Yoshitoshi “Yoshitoshi: Montreal” due out September 2007 .

Lewis Dene, 5 out of 5 on DMC Update

Basile Fanon, the mastermind behind the act and label of the same name, is equally talented at making the sort of records you instantly feel at home with, crafting irritably catchy instrumentals that just reek of crossover potential. ‘Freedom’ is no different, and sticks to the tried-and-tested adage of less-is-more: the balance of delicate chords, shuffling percussive loops and floating melodies makes for an irresistible recipe. As if the opening bars of ‘Born Slippy’ and Robert Miles’ Children’ had met and had a bastard offspring the resultant would be this hauntingly beautiful number.

From the haunting opening bars of Cool Sunshine’s ‘My Love From Recife’, you know you’re in good hands as Bargrooves The Ibiza Summer Collection joins the dots between gentle balearia to mass dancefloor hysteria. On CD1 we’re led in gently through tunes like the electro-tinged Bondi by Seb Davidson and the funky house, horn-led vocal refrains of Anette Taylor’s Faith. Max Sedgely’s classic Happy also gets an energetic rerub, courtesy of a Go Home Productions remix and we can now feel the start of the evening kicking in as the pace gets lifted. By the time the awesome electronic soundscape that is Djuma Soundsystem ‘Les Djinns (check out the awesome Trentmoller remix) and the brilliant Wize’s Heaven hit the decks, you know we are now truly locked in the groove.
CD2 strips it back again with pared-down vocal house from the likes of Tim Fuller on Slightest Touch and Ian Pooley and Majik J’s driving piano-led Heke. Before long though, we’re back in the freak zone with the late-night deep house synth stylings of Kirk Degorgio’s massive Starwaves and bassbin-blowing build up of Oliver Lang’s Dancing Girls. Finally, Swedish house don Axwell signs us off with his fat remix of Bob Sinclar’s anthem Feel For You, giving this stone-cold classic a hard electronic edge that brings it bang up to date with the summer ’07 Ibiza sound.

Laurent Garnier

I like the original mix – will play it out.

Noir

Another hypnotic and driving track from Alternative Route. Another winner.

Number One Plastic Cool Cuts chart February 2007

IDJ Magazine

Alternative Route never seem to release a dud and continues on its rich vein of form with a fantastic, piece of instrumental prog house. The original mix marries a funky bassline with lush melodies and a rock guitar lick. Andy Slate’s remix keeps all the good things from the original but ups the tempo a touch and adds some keys in turning it into a trancier affair. A sure-fire success for the dancefloor.

Matt Fiztpatrick

Really loved this… wicked!

Jody Wisternoff

Pretty strong track.

Slok

Nice Prog tune with a classic funky disco electric bass line. All the arrangements are well done and all the sounds fit into the meaning of this production. The original mix is perfect for a warm up set. The Andy Slate remix is better for late nights. Just tested last night!

Luis Bonias

Nice track with a rock touch… the original one is for me.

Andre Solaris

Absolutely amazing. Will be getting strong rotation on my XM Radio show and in the clubs in Chicago. Perfect combo of funk and deep soulful atmospherics. Perfect springtime track.

Somekind Records/Topplers

Geyster is a duo formed by Gaël Benyamin and Pernilla Grönlund in 1999. Their first cooperation occured in 1998. At that time they both attended the M.I. (Musicians Institute) music school in Los Angeles. Together they founded their own band “The Kites”, where they explored different musical genres through Gaël’s compositions from pop-rock to funk and jazz and performed live in music clubs across Los Angeles. In 2002, the project seduced Joachim Garraud, successful producer/remixer (David Guetta, Jean-Michel Jarre…) who became with Gaël co-producer of the first album of Geyster. Signed with Virgin France, the band performed regularly promoting their first hit single “Bye Bye Superman” which was airplayed all over Europe the whole summer of 2003. Followed up 2 more singles (”It’s About You” & “John Clay”) and finally their first album “I Love 1984” released in spring 2004.
In 2005 Gael founded his own label : Somekind Records through which he will release “Under The Fuse Of Love” successful 12″ EP and the first single of the new album called “Everytime I See Your Face” due for January 2007.

The new Ledge Music is coming. This time Laidback Luke & Marchand got together to make this new vocal pearl. Including hot remixes from top notch artists such as Sébastien Léger, Wize and Marchand.

Download audio file (LM005-A2.mp3)

Holland’s beloved house music-loving homeboy, Laidback Luke is on an international mission to rock clubs, win hearts and top charts. A producer and DJ with immense talent, tonnes of spirit and a steely determination to succeed, he has been on a worldwide search for the ultimate in dancefloor energy since the mid-1990s. “Music is an amazing tool that can evoke powerful memories and emotions,” says Luke with a smile. “And I will not rest until I’ve given my best: I want to share as much music as possible with as many people as possible.” And in 2006, with an incredibly impressive discography of 100+ recordings and a DJ diary that takes him from his studio near Amsterdam to clubs all over the world, including Pacha and Space (Ibiza), Ministry of Sound (London), Industria (Antwerp) and Opium (Miami), it would seem that Luke is well on the way to achieving his goals.

In 2006 Luke has been bang into the hot sounds of the ‘Swedish house mafia’. Discovering that he shared many influences with Steve Angello, the two hit-makers first met on the www.laidbackluke.com forum in 2003, trading MP3s online before finally meeting face to face at the Miami WMC in 2004. They have remained buddies ever since and Luke’s remix of Sexy F**k for Steve’s label Size and his cool collaboration with Steve titled Otherwize Then (unleashed on Sebastian Ingrosso’s label Refune) have been hammered by top jocks around the world. Indeed, Luke is on fire right now and is preparing for further collaborations when he returns to Stockholm at the end of the year. So watch out for even bigger sparks in 2007 as the Flying Dutchman continues his international house music revolution!

Wize – Again (Symphonic Records) will be featured in the already famous compilation Balance 008 mixed by the DJ Star Desyn Masiello!

With its already impressive list of DJs such as Chris Fortier, Phil K & James Holden , the Balance series continues to evolve and surprise with each new release, and the latest instalment from UK rising star DESYN MASIELLO is no exception.Incorporating classic, deep, tech, funky and progressive house in his sets, Desyn’s unique musical taste and boundless enthusiasm is captured in all its groovy glory across two discs in what may be the most awe-inspiring volume of the acclaimed mix series so far: Balance 008. Features tracks and remixes from Orbital, Francois K, Moloko, Joey Negro,Soulsearcher, Killing Joke, Will Saul, Coburn, Ellen Allien, and more…

Desyn Masiello is one of the very few DJ’s in recent years that has stood out and caught the ear of some of the worlds largest DJs ( with Deep Dish, Sander K and Danny Howells nominating him as their ‘future DJ Hero’ in DJ Magazine’s Top 100 poll). With many established DJs and newcomer DJs leaning towards a particular style and musical range many are pigeon holed into a ‘genre’ of music. Desyn, however, has managed to establish his own sound that crosses boundaries and makes difficult to categorize.

‘ Interesting record that I’m still getting my head around.’

Like a glam rock fueled missile, comes ‘Exhibition’ from Parisien duo ‘Wize’. Giorgio Moroderesque emotion in bed with the cream of the French touch sound, underlayed by tight beats, mixed with that psychoacoustic mastery only associated with that other pariesien duo, Daft Punk. What can we say, except eargasm, eargasm, eargasm. (source: Dancefrontdoor.co.uk)

‘The DJ DLG mix is awesome! A real heavy and bass driven push-up-bra remix. It works better for me than the original mix and the Manuel Tur remix for the floor response. Very good record. Thanks!’

Paulette (Ministry of Sound Radio/Radio FG)
‘it’s a very fruity, dirty disco filtered thing that has gone straight into my box. The original edit has the edge with a 6/10 I am also impressed by the electro flavoured DLG remix too. Nice one.’

Sharp Boys
‘Loving DLG’s mix – fantastic tune!’

Dani Deahl (Urb Magazine USA)
French band Wize hit upon a niche when they fused the classic French house sound with more current hard disco elements, leading them to remix for some of the genre’s hottest names. “Exhibition” is a perfect illustration of this concoction with a strong chord-driven cornerstone that carries a short, but sweet vocal hook. Manuel Tur churns out a quirky counterpart with multilayered clipped keys while DLG sticks to his signature sound, providing a disco alternate.

Tim Irwin (DJ Magazine) – 3.5/4
Sandwiched between the rather formulatic French filter house of the original and the brash electro styling of Dj DLG’s remix, is a rather interesting interpretation from Germany’s Manuel Tur. Injecting a large dose of hip-swinging funk via a shuffling rhythm track and some great squelchy bass and lead lines, Tur’s mix is what you’d imagine would happen if P-funk keyboardist Bernie Worrell and bass playing cohort Boosty Collins were ever let loose on a house track. Top gear for underground house heads who like their shit a little bit freaky, in other words.

RLP (Radio FG)
“DLG remix will rock any dancefloor on the planet. This track works wonders everytime I play it. A SURE SHOT !!!!”

Jerry Bouthier (DMC Update Magazine) – 5/5
‘Despite Europe going mad for bleepy electro, the French touch is still going. As well as looping and filtering ecstatic disco samples, the Gallic party sound now digests eighties influences as Wize’s original mix showcases here. Even US producers are at it, the DJ DLG mix proposes an in your face re-interpretation that kicks ‘Exhibition’ into glorious anthem status.’

Lewis Dene (Update / DJ Magazine)
‘The original mix is a nice mixing tool (8/10), Manuel Tur’s mix is Ok but kinda misses the point (6/10), and DLG’s mix has got great energy levels – Shalamar never sounded so good! (8/10)

Paul Hughes (Energy FM)
’Being honest, all 3 mixes are well tasty and I’ve played them all in the club and on the radio show. My fave mix is the DJ DLG’s – it goes off big time! A1: 8/10 A2: 8/10 B1: 10/10

The very first of a long list of remixes for this great duo Geyster!

Geyster is a duo formed by Gaël Benyamin and Pernilla Grönlund in 1999. Their first cooperation occured in 1998. At that time they both attended the M.I. (Musicians Institute) music school in Los Angeles. Together they founded their own band “The Kites”, where they explored different musical genres through Gaël’s compositions from pop-rock to funk and jazz and performed live in music clubs across Los Angeles. In 2002, the project seduced Joachim Garraud, successful producer/remixer (David Guetta, Jean-Michel Jarre…) who became with Gaël co-producer of the first album of Geyster. Signed with Virgin France, the band performed regularly promoting their first hit single “Bye Bye Superman” which was airplayed all over Europe the whole summer of 2003. Followed up 2 more singles (”It’s About You” & “John Clay”) and finally their first album “I Love 1984” released in spring 2004.
In 2005 Gael founded his own label : Somekind Records through which he will release “Under The Fuse Of Love” successful 12″ EP and the first single of the new album called “Everytime I See Your Face” due for January 2007.

Topplers review

4 pumping mixes riding on the red hot indie electro house formula This ones definately got the Roule / Bangalter school with big compression on the loops that churn over repetitous vocal snips, soaked with mad filtering and groovin with an extremely funky edge The energy here is banging with a sometimes frantic feel on the persistent edits and turn arounds Each mix out-does the other! Will please fans of Roulé, Phoenix, Supermen Lovers, Dj Falcon…4 tracks that really fit the bill
