About

Abîmes is the result of a long-running process of writing (electroacoustic and acoustic music) for a dream team band.

Abîmes is some of the deepest and kindest souls I've got to meet in Oslo.

Abîmes is a friendship melting on the tong, well-aged, like the best cheese we can get in France.

Abîmes is a trial to give a grasp of the deep and complex experience I went through during five years of travel and encounters far from "home".

Abîmes is a testimony of all the significant meetings that shaped me, an hommage to all the persons that count – may they be ghosts, lost shadows of friendships or long gone lovers – to the words that have been said and keep hangin' there, to the moments that have been lived and changed a life.

Abîmes would have never existed without all those fragments put together, special thanks and warm thought to Thierry, the sine qua non-condition to all of this.
