The Director

After years of research and collecting vintage studio gear, he cemented a unique sound, directly inspired by 90s House Mix/French Touch. Strongly influenced by rock and disco, Mathis focuses with great detail into giving his music a feeling of authenticity that he finds missing in today’s charts, embracing happy mistakes and the spontaneous aspect of recording his music live.

As a cinema lover, he later introduced a character « The Director » a wannabe superstar/total loser film director from the 80s, as a way to quietly mock today’s music scene, more focused on likes and numbers than the art of music making in his opinion. Linking cinematography concepts with music production, he also promotes his music through videos he produces, directs, and acts in.

With a dedication to crafting a project that breaks the mold, The Director’s unique way of doing things allowed him to get plays and share the stage with industry leaders like Barry Can’t Swim, Claptone, Dan Shake, Dombresky, Duke Dumont, Ian Pooley, Mr. Oizo, ... ; and festivals/medias such as BBC One Radio, Pacha Ibiza, Radio FG, Tomorrowland...
