Revealed on Cod3 QR, the label of Laurent Garnier, the French producer aims to become a key figure in the renewal of French electronic music.
Voltaire doesn’t belong to the serail, the preferential circuits of the electro universe: he’s an artist who built his career through passion, after electronic music fell into his lap somewhat by chance. Coming from a region far from the preferred circuits of the electro world, he cultivated his predispositions in autarky. Very quickly, the musician took advantage of his training in the audiovisual industry (where he worked as a sound recordist and mixer for cinema, advertising and haute couture) to raise the artistic and technical quality of his productions to a very high level.
Voltaire uses his perfectionist approach to music to create a richly emotional eclecticism, inspired by reminiscences of the historical signatures of electronic music, from the pioneers of Detroit to the glorious electro decades of the 2000s and 2010s. Between nostalgia and the search for new forms of contemporary electro, which must reconcile efficiency and inspiration: ‘I love all facets of electronic music and I want to remain open to all influences. This approach also allows me to avoid formatting my music’.
Today Voltaire is a Cod3 QR regular: he has remixed Tales from the Real World from Laurent Garnier’s latest album, had several vinyl and digital releases and has been in the line-up of several events with the godfather of French techno, with whom a relationship of loyalty and trust has been firmly established. His forthcoming releases complete this first sequence and open up a new one: with his powerful reminiscences of techno, house and electro from 2000 and 2010, Voltaire has established himself as the newcomer to watch on a Frenchy techno in a full renewal.
