Born in 1970, so 20 years old in 1990, Stéphane Kerecki grew up with a passion for jazz and electronic music; it is by wanting to bring these two interests together that he decided to devote himself to this project.

Starting from the desire to remain in an acoustic context and to play these themes as if they were jazz themes (no electronic instruments are used except for effects on the Fender Rhodes), all the recorded music was played live.

This record is therefore in keeping with a certain tradition of jazz, which has always drawn on the popular music of its time to reinvent itself.
