about

As you know, XXXIII is an intensely "romantic" composer. Artist with electronic sounds, sometimes experimental, his works flirt between pop and IDM and transport us in a poetic journey where long sound fields meet an uneven "sample".

His new EP "Velléité" is the quintessence of it. An ode to the anti-perfection, which speaks about all these plans that never happen: a road trip to the United States, being a rockstar, becoming a superhero, learning the guitar...
The first track "la rosée" expresses the magic of the beginning, "tu es comme des vacances" the joy of the first steps, "du bout des doigts" or how to slowly give up by procrastination, "COOL!" makes a reason of it then we find excuses in "the vicissitudes", to finally cherish these impossible ideal moments with the single "de la même matière que les rêves" and its stop-motion azimuth clip on Google Earth.

For this record, XXXIII remains influenced by the great composers of the 70s and 80s like François de Roubaix, Ryuichi Sakamato, Terry Riley or Maurice Lecoeur. Today seduced and influenced by contemporary artists such as Vegyn or Oneohtrix Point Never, he composes thanks to new techniques such as granular synthesis, the altered FM or the "micro-sampling", a more modern sound with complex and maximalist harmonies.
