Totally feed by guitar legends as Bukka White, John Fahey, Charlie Tweddle , Loren Connors and Harry Partch he created his own guitar language, mix of fast lightning scratching style and multicolored melodic moods. His love for Pop music as Van Dyke Parks, The Beatles, The Fugs, Joe Meek and Kahimi Karie pushed him to record and produce through crazy architectural forms his own music and many belgium bands.

A new fresh melted pop album should be released on a label around november.
Formed in Paris back in 1988 by Jean-Marcel Busson, Frédéric Rebotier, Ravi Sharda Samon Takahashi, the GOL quartet embody a tense, all but lost, post dada rural tradition, balancing between instinct and invention, flabby psycho disco psychedelics and terse tropical experimentalism. Handmade, handheld and hand in glove, expect tapes, turntables, flute, guitar, horns and a heavenly host of marvelously home manufactured mid summer mambo to speed the party home.
PORTRADIUM explore new territories in electronic seduction and intrigue: oscillating between off-kilter Ennio Morricone-style motifs, pop-inflected melodies, digital experimentation and tongue-in-cheek psychedelics.
"Daring ideas abound in the world of electronica, but there's frequently a gulf of disappointment between high-flown concept and drab sonic reality. Thankfully, that's not the case with Transatlantyk, a strikingly recondite project which has given rise to some gratifyingly edgy music. (...) At times - during the keening, bristling wail of "East Side Effect", for example - this modernistic and intriguing score is genuinely gripping." (The Wire)
