Laurent's passion for sound and music hasn’t faded throughout the years and he brings the same energy to his vision, whether he's working with a household name or an up-and-coming artist.
"My way of mixing is a quest to find the core of the music that will move the listener. The part of the music that the brain receives but doesn't have time to intellectualise because it goes straight to your body and soul."
I’m always delighted to discover and bring my experience and my style to new creations."
