    Paul Régimbeau’s path starts like many others at the end of the 90s, when he still lives in Toulouse, is deeply moved by the first records from Vangelis and Aphex Twin, and consequently starts to experiment with music production software. He moves to Paris at 22 when his first remixes and releases meet the success of the exploding « electro » french scene. Whereas this wave tends to get the public’s attention away from the true relationship he nurtures with music, some remark this more insular aspect of his sound, like french magazine Les Inrockuptibles, describing early work « Galaxy of Nowhere » (2009) as being the work of « one of the most impressive disciples of Brian Eno in this century of dark lights ». To reclaim the deeper meaning and emotions in music, Régimbeau embraces extreme metal music, where he finds sensations and feelings closer to his own. His album « Hadès » (2014) offers a unique synthesis of the purer melodies of electronica and an adventurous electronic take on doom metal textures and riffs. The follow up under the moniker Extreme Precautions is a total contrast to anything he has done in the past : a true punk record, described by The Guardian as « angry, heavy, lunk-headed and anthemic ». Proof of his ability to transcend genres, he performs in the edgiest international festivals (All Tomorrow’s Parties, CTM opening for Electric Wizard), in postindustrial warehouses and most industrial underground club nights (Berghain - Berlin, Kaos - London, opening for Nurse With Wound with his Autrenoir project), as well as in places of worship (Eglise St Merri in Paris), museums (Beaux Arts museum of Brussels) and some of most prevalent classical music venues in France (Cité de la musique in Paris, Auditorium de Lyon). Each of these occasions are experienced as a chance to abandon himself and the crowd in the pure intensity of sound. He founded in 2011 together with his friend Guillaume Heuguet, In Paradisum Records, fostering releases of other idiosyncratic French artists such as Low Jack and December, who are now releasing on international record labels. While his music was at first an introspective affair, he soon found interest in collaborations, working with Charlemagne Palestine - another artist obsessed with the transcendental potential of sound -, guitarist Gregory Buffier from Saaad (as Autrenoir), with noise-rock band Oiseaux Tempêtes (Sub Rosa), among others. With no surprise considering the high cinematographic potential of his music, he signed two musical scores to full length movies: Papa Lumière by Ada Loueilh (2011), and Bridgend by Jeppe Rønde (2015).
