Pascal Comelade

The man makes himself rare in France and is much more prolific in Catalonia, where he isconsidered to be an "essential" musician. In France, he is seldom mentioned in the media, and, in record shops, his music is often to be found in the "film score" section,with "experimental music" or even with "world music".

Since 1975, he has produced over 40 albums and many film scores. "Monofonicorama 2005-1992", hisrecent Best-Of album, put into perspective the importance of his works and demonstrated his many-sided musical vision, his multi-layered pocket symphonies, his bazaar of toy instruments and his playful ramblings, sometimes shared with big namesin the world of the bizarre: P.J. Harvey (Love Too Soon) and Robert Wyatt (September Song) among others. His work could be presented as a great influence of Yann Tiersen’s (“Amelie From Montmartre” soundtrack) sound as well as the punk turned composer of a Danny Elfman kind. His last album ‘Metode de Rocanrol’ was released in 2008.
