Not A Diving Podcast with Scuba
Music:Music Interviews
Paris is rarely cited (somewhat unfairly) as one of the key cities of electronic music, but the influence of French musicians is absolutely huge. You know the names, and you definitely know the tracks. But there's a lot more to it than Daft Punk and Justice.
Chloé Thévenin has been a key figure in Paris for the last two decades, as resident at the hugely important night Le Pulp, and at Rex Club, while also developing a reputation as a highly technical producer operating in different styles and in collaboration with a range of musicians.
We discuss all of the above, plus delving into her journey as a musician from beginnings in the Paris club scene in the early 90s, recent developments in AI and spacial audio, and the cultural importance of clubs in the development of electronic music and culture.
This is a good one, and you're going to enjoy it!
