Joachim Garraud

About

Parisian Joachim Garraud carefully sculpts music designed to get everyone on the dance floor, bumping in 4/4 time to house music. He has experimented with the production and distribution of his music, including a project in which each fan chooses their own artwork for his record. His attention to production aesthetics are exacting, and reflect many hours and days spent listening to the archives of German and French electronica. He uses all the tools of the trade to build suspense and tension in his songs, which don't necessarily resolve in the flurry of huge beats that is generally expected.
