With such a stage name, JEAN DU VOYAGE's music could only be nomadic and therefore universal. Is it his connection to the port of La Rochelle, a city where the horizon stretches as far as the eye can see, that fuels and spices his insatiable thirst for elsewhere, his regular travels around the vast world that invite him to this diverse musical interpretation, or perhaps that "well-placed" curiosity that naturally leads him towards others and wide open spaces? A literate and titled DJ (DMC, IDA, TKO), beatmaker, producer and turntablist, musician and passionate and obsessive music lover, our adventurer has been lugging his decks and vinyls from stages to clubs since 1998. His first loves – soul, funk, reggae, hip-hop, and jazz – met the massive bass and powerful breaks of electronic music at the dawn of the 21st century; thus defining the young man's musical DNA. This insatiable sound explorer, with a capital S, makes his abstract hip-hop flirt with Sevillian flamenco, marries his breakbeat with Reunion maloya, arranges his dubstep with Indian ragga, and spices up his grime music with the breath of Moroccan gnawas. Attentive to the musical respiration of the world, Jean is equally so to that of his contemporaries. His journey is thus marked by multiple collaborations with singers and musicians, as well as visual artists and videographers. An open heart and mind!
