Profession: Composer Nicolas Chaix was born in Paris in 1974. Musician and active producer on the electronic music scene of France for over fifteen years, he has always combined different productive elements and techniques  (« dance music » house and techno, « sound design », « field recording », sampling, sound synthesis). His career has explored various artistic domains and formats beyond the context of “club” music stricto sensu (concerts in the planetarium, musical accompaniment to silent films, radio mixes). Self-taught, he has been performing in the most important European and world-wide electronic music clubs and festivals since 1997. Within the framework of his Villa Medici project, Nicolas Chaix intends to approach new provinces in order to update his knowledge of new production and composition techniques in order to develop a music which owes as much to external sound as it does to computers. Geographic dimension and the close-up environment are essential for the realization of this project, which aims to exploit only the sources and material found in situ.
