about

Although I started rapping and beatmaking at the same time and they were always interlinked, I’ve always been a fan of instrumental hip hop (and trip hop) like for example DJ Cam, DJ Shadow, DJ Krush, I’d often considered releasing instrumental versions, and had been asked a few times especially about making a vinyl version, but it was too expensive so it never got done, but now in the digital age it’s so easy to release stuff. I’d already put a few instrumental tracks on each album “whisky boat” and “dolphin” on Reflectionz, then in 2020 I released the first collection of instrumental works, streaming links, there will be another album like this of instrumental versions in 2021, and I’m currently working on some music which is designed to be instrumental which should be out soon. I’ve always loved the relation between music ands images and especially more so now that I’m making videos myself. A few songs have been used in video projects over the years, notably the rock climbing company Petzl who used Accordion, Reflections and a few others in some to their videos. The Metropole of Grenoble used “Reflections” for a promotional video which was shown on France Air. Accordion has been used in quite a few skate and snowboard videos.
