I’ve been doing these mixtapes for a little more than a year now, more or less once a week on Pigalle Paris Radio.
The concept of the show is mostly music to listen to on a Sunday morning when you head somewhat hurts from the day before and you’re a bit tired so you lie down on your sofa right after you woke up -just because- and put on a pair of cans on your head and zone out for an hour.
So as you may have guessed there’s a lot of ambient, (modular) synth and texture laden tunes, with a good dose of psychedelics for good mesure. It’s not limited to that, and you’ll find the occasional cheesy 80’s pop song or acid techno tune in there too. Mostly, it’s a reflection of what I listen to at the moment.
Just listened to half of the latest episode on mixcloud, was really enjoying it and then this shitty 80s power ballad came on and totally killed the vibe. What’s up with that?

For those of you in Paris I’ll be taking my radio show to the stage on the 1st of July during the UFO Tragic Festival. Expect lots of bass frequencies, drones, ambient textures, and cosmic bubbles.
There’s tons of cool stuff happening during these two days as well, including but not limited too : X-Files, recreation of the Roswell crash, DJ sets galore, Tattoos, UFO Center, Gaming Center, good food etc.
Thank you, glad you enjoyed listening to those. I haven’t uploaded the tracklist, mostly out of lazyness, will try to do so for the next ones. If you have any particular tracks you like just ask I’ll try to redirect you to the full albums/eps !
