  • Musical background: "I was born in Cannes in 1981 in the south of France.
    When I was twelve, I decided to learn playing drums, so my parents inscribed me at the Cannes' Musical "conservatoire" in 1993, soon I played with musicians in rock bands, with some grunge and metal influences. My first live was in a little pub in 1994!
    At the same time, I went on practicing drums with two teachers, and learning musical theory in a collective lesson every week during 8 years.
    Later in 1996, I joined my first serious band named Leek Eyes with whom we recorded a demo in 1997 and made some live.
    In 1998, I met 2 guitarists so we created Disharmony in 2000.
    In 2001, I joined Imperial Sodomy after the band's first full lenght album. I began playing more lives, bigger gigs, like festivals and other dates in France and even in Netherlands and Belgium, so we went on our first tour for one week.
    During 8 years, I worked hard, improving my drums' skills.
    The year after, I entered the Musicology faculty of Nice and stayed there for 2 years.
    In 2003, we composed the second Imperial Sodomy's album, and in October 2004, "Demolished" was internationaly released on Diamond Productions; it was my 1st official recording.
    The same year, I joined Agressor a famous death metal band in Europe and in the world. I recorded the drums in July 2004 for their next album which will be on sale in 2005 on the famous metal label Season of Mist: it is my 2nd official recording.
    Then I joined Belef, the first full lenght album has been recorded in 2002 and is on sale since February 2005 on the famous english extreme metal label: Candlelight records. I'm not playing on this album but I will be on the next one!.
    Always on the same year, 2003, we finished composing (we decided to abandon our old tunes) the first album of Disharmony that we recorded in 2004. This album is an instrumental song of 45 minutes influenced by progressive bands as Dream Theater, Liquid Tension, Andromeda and also guitar heroes of the 80's like Cacophony and many others... this is my 3rd official recording.
    During 2004, I recorded the drum parts for the heavy thrash band Scavengours but I have just done the session work, that is my 4th official recording.
    At the beginning of the year 2005, I joined Krysalyd...
    At the end of the year 2005, I leave Imperial Sodomy and Belef. Then I joined Arsebreed."
