Compo 🎶 La Lutte
New piano solo compo! Spirit of the piece Through a succession of dissonances and harmonies, all in eighth notes, sixteenth notes or triplets, sometimes classical, sometimes jazzy, this piece evokes struggle for me.

It's been a long time since we've done a compo! Because we're 31, a "threshold" age that prompts some reflection. Am I still capable of making solo music? I had to relearn to play guitar and bass, write and sing in English, play realistic drums on a piano, mix... I didn't count,

Short film post-production: Pépite
Pépite est un très court-métrage réalisé en fin 2013 par les soeurs Alexandra et Natacha Rougier, alias Scarlett Sisters. Comme souvent, le son original n’était pas exploitable, ce qui en a fait un exercice de bruitage très intéressant, puisque 100% du son de cette vidéo est post-produit.
