- Orgasmic is a DJ’s DJ, a man of impeccable taste and ethics, a lover of extreme musical risk-taking, fascinated by cultural youth movements.In the early 90’s he discovers rap, new jack swing and the blossoming rave scene. After a couple of years of party experiments he invests in a pair of turntables and starts emulating the turntable wizardry of his scratch dj heroes. Already a long time friend of Teki Latex, he joins the newly-formed TTC as a part time DJ alongside DJ Fab in 1998. Soon after, he co-founds cult alt rap act Le Klub Des Loosers which he parts way from after two singles to focus on his involvement with TTC, with whom he tours extensively as a full time member. He provides cuts and production, notably the 2 singles for the band’s last album (“36 15 TTC”). In the mid 2000’s he develops a new sound for TTC rapper CUIZINIER, producing almost entirely his successful trilogy of street albums “Pour Les Filles” (2005, 2006 and 2008) based around intricate reworks of pop classics, often with an uptempo twist. These productions, based on 90s dance classics melted into new rap beats, foresee a lot of today’s popular chart topping beatmaking styles. Orgasmic also has two solo mixtapes under his belt: “Orgasmic Le Toxicologue Est Secrètement Amoureux De Vous” (2002) showcasing his turntablism background, electronica crushes and plunderphonics rap remixes of the time, pre-dating the blog craze by at least 3 years. In 2005 he wraps “The Rise And Rise of Orgasmic”, documenting the exciting boom of Atlanta rap and mixing it effortlessly with past, present and future dance music. These mixtapes enable him to embark on legendary Institubes tours, including the infamous Hooligan Disco tour across the North America alongside labelmates Drop The Lime, Surkin and Para One, as documented by Para One’s movie “One More Song”. Closely following local dance music scenes he directs two vinyl compilations with Jean Nipon : “Eurogirls” (a selection of 18 Baile Funk tracks) in 2006 and “Eurogirls Go To Baltimore” (a mini album of classic and brand new Baltimore club-inspired tracks, some produced by the pair) in 2008. Institubes rap label Stunts releases the first street album of a young rapper named JOKE. Orgasmic is the executive producer of the record and produces many tracks. One year later he becomes a co-founder and co-A&R of SOUND PELLEGRINO, a digital-only label originally part of the Institubes network, with long-time friend and TTC member Teki Latex, shortly after releasing the very successful single “The Sixpack Anthem” which will prefigure the Sound Pellegrino sound. Orgasmic and Teki Latex form dj and production duo SOUND PELLEGRINO THERMAL TEAM, a moniker under which they’ve toured almost every continent and major club in the world (Barcelona Razzmatazz/Loft, Smart Bar Chicago, Studio B & Hiro Ballroom in New York, Social Club Paris, Gent I LOVE TECHNO, Osaka onzieme, Brussels Fuse and Libertine, Bern Club Bonsoir, London Warehouse Project and Fabric, Volar Hong Kong, to name a few). Together they host and curate the SOUND PELLEGRINO PODCAST, their iTunes chart-topping weekly show during which they play mostly exclusives and upcoming stuff from the label and its huge extended family as well as a bimontly show on Rinse France. After releasing 40 one-offs and collaborative EPs, the label has started in 2013 a series of collective albums called «SND.PE» (short for “Sound Pellegrino”) curated by Teki & Orgasmic as a platform championing emerging sounds, the label’s core artists and as a springboard for new talent. These albums have garnered accolades from press such as Rolling Stone, Spin, Mixmag, FACT, Resident Advisor, Les Inrockuptibles, the cover of leading electronic publication Tsugi and are now distributed by Universal Music France’s biggest label Barclay, confirming their vision and efforts as a justified long-term gamble. Orgasmic has appeared with Teki, in collaboration with Feadz or with solo tracks on every SND.PE compilation since 2013. «Entrée, Plat, Dessert», the debut album from CUIZINIER (TTC) is released in 2013, mostly produced by him. In 2014 he reunites with rapper Fuzati (Le Klub des Loosers) for the very successful album «Grand Siècle» he entirely produced and tours all French festivals. He starts 2015 with the massive «Mauvais Garçon», a baroque instrumental hiphop number, one of the most beloved tracks of SND.PE VOL.04 and is currently working on several hiphop projects…̸Sound Pellegrino Thermal Team «Bassface / Pretty Pretty Good» (EP, 2011 – Sound Pellegrino) Sound Pellegrino Thermal Team «Bassface remixes» (EP, 2011 – Sound Pellegrino) Sound Pellegrino Thermal Team «Strange Touch / Ice Palace» (EP, 2012 – Sound Pellegrino) Sound Pellegrino Thermal Team «Activate / I Be» (EP, 2012 – Sound Pellegrino) Modeselektor & Sound Pellegrino Thermal Team «Negativity» (single, 2013 – 50 Weapons) Orgasmic «Diamond Falls» (single, 2013 — Sound Pellegrino) Orgasmic & Feadz «Throw It Up» (single, 2014 — Sound Pellegrino) Orgasmic & Fuzati «Grand Siècle» (album, 2014 — Les Disques du Manoir) Orgasmic «Mauvais Garçon» (single, 2015 — Sound Pellegrino)
