Èlg is the project of a whimsical scholar, with a biting sense of humour and a remarkable culture. Starting in 2004 he has built improbable bridges between concrete music and the French musical tradition of the chanson. He has produced music that is both popular and experimental with great success. Combining electronic sounds with Dadaist lyrics, Èlg's sound- scapes are the playground for a work on language. It is immersive, as beautiful as it is strange, and makes our irrational core vibrate and recon- nects us with our primal emotions.
The artist was selected by the Shape platform, with the support of the European Union under its Creative Europe program.
