winter 2013

In February and March I will temporarily relocate in the heart of Burgundy, in the Morvan area. Anyone around can drop me a few words to get in touch. This temporary retreat means of course less activity but by no means absolute idleness !

01.03 - Ivry (F) @ KOBE (+ projet piscine + anton mobin + c.galareta)

April should be pretty busy too, with a TG Gondard show on the 6th in Menen (B) opening for Pomrad, a 9-day tour in the UK with Gaël Moissonnier, and the screening of my first fiction movie, "Voyage Au Centre Du Monde" ("Journey To The Center Of The World"). More infos about all this in early april !

The long-awaited tape "Bye-Bye Waterloo" by TG Gondard is now out and available on my own label Les Disques De L'Oubli (Website HERE). 5 euros + post.

And finally, on the most obscure sublabel from Brussels, Belgium (Les Disques Du Néant Absolu Et De La Mort), another live document straight out of the most obscure underground place in France, the good old island in Metz under the A31 motorway, where crazy sabbaths occur on secret nights. It's a 2009 live from TG Gondard, and it is entitled "Sous Le Pont De L'A31". 5 euros postpaid.

june: shows in Brussels + TG Gondard on tour with The Dreams

June will be a pretty active month on the concert front, as many things are happening around Belgium.
First a little starter will take place on the radio waves of Radio Panik (105.4 fm in Brussels), on Tuesday 12 june, at 22h00 for the show "cuisine allemande". Quentin Nicolaï aka Pacific Games, the author of a great tape newly released on Young Girls Records, will perform a live set and i will briefly try to interview him over his music & life, in french language. It will be also listenable on the Radio Panik website.

Then, two days later, on Thurday 14 june, i will host a new show in "les concerts du néant absolu et de la mort" series. This "Brussel Chaleur" evening will gather Manuel J. Grotesque and Ilill at the Micromarché, for the ridiculous price of 2 euros, so there is absolutely no reason to skip this rare performance by Monsieur Grotesque.

The following week I will perform a special one hour live set at the late night bar "Bonnefooi" in Brussels. It will be on Tuesday 19 at 22h00 and it is absolutely free. Please come and take a look at their super powerful air extracter in their new smokers' room where almost everything will be allowed..


Then I will join again my good friends from The Dreams for a few shows in northern europe. The Fine Fleur Festival in Den Haag will be a crazy meeting of french sonic weirdos and its schedule is amazing ! check it out on the web and come join us !

23.06 - Den Haag (NL) @ fine fleur festival
24.06 - Den Haag (NL) @ fine fleur festival

29.06 - Berlin (D) @ west germany
