about

Dangereux is a four tracks record developped during a troubled period for his genitor, forcing him to leave his former creative workflow behind in an attempt to reach a new approach, more spontaneous. This new method allowed him to combine two features he has a fondness for which are generally considered as deeply contradictory, that is hardstyle patterns and cinematic structures. The record is fully permeated by this intense duality, attesting that only doubts could be at the origins of its inception.

While the melodies crafted here are delicate and tend to reveal a certain sensibility, in return the record is all around marked by the roughness of its elastic drums. Disposed in a very dramatic way that could bring to mind horror film scores, these percussions somehow represent the brutal counterpart that inevitably comes with all the bliss ever experienced in life.

Indeed, those compositions symbolize the confrontation between two parts of himself. On one hand, the soft childhood, listening to classical at home, resulting in a real penchant for delicacy and tactfullness, that can be found in the harmonic richness of his tracks. But on the other hand, he has been confronted to the outside world in full force, which generated a need to express this part of violence that eventually became a part of him, and so of his sound. In the end, those pieces of music are the mirror image of his experience as a youngster, the warm and gentle surroundings of the home clattered on the rough and dangerous world of the outside.

« Each song takes place in a fictional space, a gigantic, hazy and scary vision of urban areas, coming from a reccuring dream that occured for many years », according to him. This vision of immensity and emptiness can be found in both his music and the cover illustrating it.
