About me
So, who is Press Play On Tape? I was immersed in music and image since my childhood, composing soundtracks for my Super 8 movies on a Casio VL-1. Evolving with my machines, I first composed on two audio tracks and a noise track on MSX computers. Then I continued with audiotrackers on an Atari ST, moving on to four generous tracks, then 8. A certain idea of infinity at the time. Later, freshly graduated from an audiovisual school, I moved to Paris and got my first job in advertising. Because of all the talented and interesting people I met there, I stayed 10 years in this agency. As a chief film editor first, then as a special effects artist. But the love for the music was eventually the strongest: I became a sound artistic director for this agency, and created my first recording and post- production studio there. In 2009 I decided to play solo and created my own company. Yes, « Press Play On Tape ». The loop is closed.
