This is the story of a meeting. That of Yannick and Jean-Baptiste, two French guys impassionated with electronic music.
Jean-Baptiste has been bathing in this music for almost fifteen years, Yannick for about two decades.
Both of them have a love for bewitching melodies, worship ultra-synthetic loops, groovy beats and adore melancholic as well as dark atmospheres.
Since 2001, they've been virtually hanging out together (they met on a music-dedicated forum on the Internet), they finally met in the real life in 2003. At that time, they both were bothering their computers to design music, and finally decided to associate in order to materialize their musical desires. Their strength ? Complementarity. When one of them generally prefers working on the rhythmic part and on the structuration of a track, the other one focuses more on melodies and basslines. Track after track, they learn how to forge their style, starting with downtempo pieces, then had an electro-tech period, to now reach the banks of a more minimalist but melodic genre. Which doesn't prevent them from making incursions to styles such as breakbeat or techno-pop. Their works result from their wide range of tastes, which of course include the whole electronic spectrum but also other musical families such as jazz, hip-hop, or movie soundtracks.
Now their duet, SQware, has step into a new phase since an mp3 -EP is was released on a German label, Broque.de, on February 1st, 2008. Read more on Last.fm. User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.
