The Architect

His first steps into music have been through Hip Hop culture by producing, mixing and organizing events under the name of "Dj Mongkut". But his first influences, such as soul, reggae and jazz, soon caught him up, giving birth to "The Architect".

Heir to the Djing's culture, reducing this turntable craftsman to a simple party warmer would be a mistake, because the man has always kept the love for the perfect sample, the percussive arrangements and for the crushing groove. He likes to confuse the issue and we can say that he builds and organizes his tunes like a true architect. Claiming his inheritance from experienced diggers, this turntablist, The Architect, made himself his own musical and scenic identity.

There's no musical artist like The Architect, relating everything around to his music: bootlegs, remixes, personal productions... The Architect aims at making the crowd move, and that's the way it goes! Swing, jazz, electro, Soul, funk and Hip Hop... Everything's good if it's about positive vibes or even kick-ass influences making people want to party.

Also working with Fisto since 2011 after the release of his latest album “Futur Vintage”, his several collaborations (Vjs, visual artists, beatboxers,…) make his work grow: by mixing disciplines, "The Architect" brings a complete live performance—festive, rythmic and creative at the same time.

The "L'Homme à la Caméra" soundtrack project showed that he's able to play on different areas. Indeed, he created many varied atmospheres for the film, sometimes poetic, extatic, serious or even funny.
