A good craftsman spends his time honing his craft. He refines his technique, year after year. An artist, on the other hand, has to get emotionally involved - and that can sometimes be dizzying. It takes a lot of courage to show your inner thoughts and your flaws. Especially when you’ve experienced the exhilaration of a fast rise to musical fame without even having released a first album, and tours all over the world in front of thousands of people.
Except that Fakear needed to find Theo, in order to make it work. To make it last.
It took a world pandemic and general confinement for Théo Le Vigoureux, a sensitive thirty-year-old guy from Caen, in Normandy, France, to sort out his mind and his music. To the point, even, of wanting to break with his musical persona, which sometimes became suffocating. But a story that started ten years ago cannot be erased just like that. Theo needed to reinvent Fakear: to return to the essence of the project, with spontaneity and above all, honesty. This come-back is nothing other than the first step towards the new Fakear.
Two years after the release of his last album, Fakear returns to his first love in music, without looking to the past with nostalgia or disgust; but rather by contemplating his past self with kindness, and a tap on the shoulder. "I found myself", he admits.
And when you find yourself, it's because you've stopped looking.

Author of electronic music that can be danced to in the darkness of a club or listened to on a sunny beach, Birrd unveils a first EP of cosmic harmonies, where recordings of everyday sounds are triturated, decomposed and reassembled around large, powerful synthesizers to give birth to a very personal version of machine music: deeply melodic.
Birrd is a paradoxical producer, well-traveled yet rooted in his home town of Rouen, the author of electronic music that can be heard at home just as much as in a big hall, flirting with techno while steering clear of its possible darkness, more hands in the machines than in the air behind the turntables.
Alone, in his studio, embracing a culture that had hitherto seemed far removed, he codes his MIDI controller himself, avoiding presets as much as possible, preferring to invent his own sounds, when he's not recording the sounds of the sea, bicycles or pebbles, then manipulating the samples until they're almost unrecognizable, combining them with cosmic synthesizers, machines at the heart of his creative process.
Always learning, always discovering. The great thing about curiosity is that it can be passed on. And from loops to harmonies, from heartfelt techno feet to eloquent melodies, Birrd manages to pass on his.
