Three of CHILLY GONZALES' most beautiful albums now available from [PIAS] France. Chilly Gonzales is a multitalented genius, from the electro underground in Berlin, rapper-entertainer, and producer for renowned artists such as Jane Birkin and Feist. Propelled by a Grammy nomination and a Guinness World Record for the longest concert, Chilly Gonzales has become THE indispensable pianist, sought after by Drake and Daft Punk for Random Access Memories... Through his albums and tours, he fascinates with his versatility as a performer and his virtuosity as a pianist. Three of his most beautiful albums are now re-released on the [PIAS] France catalog: Über Alles - the first cornerstone laid in 2000, an album that has since become legendary and was reissued in 2010 with 1 bonus track. In 2004, he released the sublime Solo Piano, which sold over 130,000 copies. Reissued in a deluxe version, it includes a DVD featuring From Major To Minor, surreal music lessons given by the maestro to his acolytes Feist, Daft Punk, and Jamie Lidell, a piano battle with Jean-François Zygel, as well as music videos, concert excerpts, and other key moments of his career. Finally, Ivory Tower, produced in 2010 with the complicity of the brilliant electro producer Boys Noize, is an ambitious, fun, and intelligent album, proclaimed "best disco piano album of the last 10 years" by Rough Trade. A must (re)discover! "Brilliant entertainer and prodigious pianist" LES INROCKUPTIBLES "This subtle melodist carefully carves out moments of reverie where the piano gracefully wanders between Tin Pan Alley, Debussy, or Duke Ellington."
