1984 saw Alex entering the world of machines. Aged 10 he received his first
machine from his mother and father, respectively pianist and drummer, a
Juno 106 Roland. At that time, student at the Conservatoire, he started
looking at LFOs and filters. His favourite instruments remain keyboards
and especially the piano, an instrument which he will get back to at 13
when entering the Jazz section at the Conservatoire of Chambéry (73). His
growing interest for machines and electronic music enticed him to listen
to artists such as Kraftwerk, Tangerine Dream, Pink Floyd, John Cage, Peter
Gabriel… Convinced that a fusion of styles is fundamental, Alex decided
at 16 to look into Pop-Electro fusion. He took part in several bands as
keyboard player and arranger, his main function being to mingle and mix
electronic sounds into Pop-Rock amospheres. |
