  • Bio

    Marboss is a major contributor to the French electro scene, he utilizes cutting-edge music technology in the creation of innovative compositions, via sound-design, Djing and VJing techniques, demonstrating that he is a veritable scientist of sound. BIOGRAPHY : Marboss discovered the electro-pop wave and new-wave at the beginning of 80's. In the middle of this decade, he produced his first electronic songs. He played private concerts in Paris. During the acid/house period, Marboss was playing at student parties and had live programmes on the radio. During his computing studies at Staffordshire University, Marboss met with different DJ's et musicians of techno tribe, and he discovered samples handling with the first PC music tools (trackers). It was in Paris in 1999, during an open-day about « techno culture » organised by the Nationale Library of France, which was playing his first LP 'Musica Electronica' (then on the web few weeks later). During this manifestation, Marboss met with H. Maurel (Radio FG) and also E. Morand (FCommunication). Marboss left Paris in 2001 to live at Juan les Pins (French Ibiza). In the pubs and clubs of côte d'azur his singles were popular dance floor favourites. This is when Marboss produced his second LP 'e-music' in collaboration with Remy Pelleschi from Millenium studio at Nice (France). Journalist interviewed Marboss and the LP had good reviews in popular French magazines (Trax, Coda...). He performed a live radio show called 'Elektrochoc' each Saturday evening from 8 to 10, on Fréquence K radio (France). He presented his music on radio and in concerts. Marboss produced in june 2003, a new demo of seven songs. He now lives in Moselle (France), and worked in Metz with 'Arts of Erebus' on their project 'Messaia'. In January 2007, he released a new single 'Train Grande Vitesse de l'Est' which is becoming the official music for the TGV-Est in Lorraine region (the fastest train in the world !). He met his VJ Jhon Black Fire. Marboss innovates in march 2008 with his tracks called "Autoroute". He synchronizes directly his GPS navigator with his musical machines. In June 2008, Marboss signes with Musea label for his third LP called ''electrotherapies'' which is distributed all around the world. He starts a serie of concerts called "Alpha Omega Tour" at La Laiterie in Strasbourg (France) with the american band Ratatat in november 2008. Become a reference in the use of all the lastest musical and visual technologies in France, Marboss closing Festival Norapolis 7 in may 2009 by a big electro/vjing gig, and presents a new electro concept based on sound designing and djing with Jhon Black Fire. In December 2009, Marboss played in Saint-Evre church at Toul. He presents a concept of collecting notes from the touch screen of his iPod. The notes collected in the audience are played in a loop and then accompanied by his sound design (see...). Marboss has won the first contest "Impul'sons" organized by Les Eurockéennes and the newspaper L'Est Républicain. He won the first prize of electronic music and is sponsored by Music Academy International in September 2010. On 3rd April 2011, Marboss presents an electronic sound-design entitled "Fukushima Daiichi" during a charity concert given at the Arsenal of Metz city (France) and organized by Metz-Lorraine-Japan. After this performance, he recorded his new album. The third Marboss album "Fukushima-Daiichi", recorded live during a benefit concert for Japan given at the Arsenal in Metz (France), is a musical summary of the nuclear disaster that occurred in Japan, March 11th 2011. One is certainly lost for words to describe such events, whereas Marboss prefers to give a sonic narrative of the reactors deterioration, through electronic sound sculpturing, immersing the listener into an "electro-radioactive" mood. It's hard not to relate to the victims, after this listening experience, which is a reminder to us all to face up our responsibilities, before this slow contamination, goes way beyond control... This sonic page of human history has established "documentary music" as a brand new musical genre, which would be of interest to an emotive and curious audience. Materials : Korg Triton, Korg Karma, Korg R3, Waldorf Blofeld, NI Komplete 7, Korg Legacy, Korg MS2000, Korg EM1, Korg Kaosspad, et Roland SH-101...
