Pierre
Yves-Macé
Born in 1980, Pierre began his career as an improvisational artist, playing in
jazz-rock progressive bands. Classically-trained, he has composed electronic
music for theater, dance and the martial arts. He has also been an accompanist
for dance classes. Faux-Jumeaux, his first CD release, on the Tzadik label, brings
the aesthetics of French romanticism into a head-on collision with sampling technology,
electroacoustic and minimalism. A lyrical, adventurous mix of styles and sounds,
this is an astounding debut recording by a strange and wonderful new musical
mind. Pierre-Yves was featured in the MIMI festival (Marseille, France) in July
2003 and in the “Octobre en Normandie” festival (France) in October
2003.
