Electro vs Rock (J'aime le Rock) - Eliott

Eliott Pain is a former French guitarist, age 27, who became an independent producer of electronic music. His music is strongly marked by electric guitars and very rock-like acoustic drum rhythms, but always mixed with electronic beats and sounds, without falling into the jumpiness of electro-punk. Eliott Pain constantly tries to find a compromise between his rock influences (Queens Of The Stone Age, Nirvana, Soundgarden) and his electronic bent (Fischerspooner, Adult, Daft Punk, Soulwax...). This gave rise to his first release, "Electro vs Rock (I Love Rock)", in which two synthesized voices clash, each defending a musical style, in the text: "digital effects and synthesizers" versus "electric guitars and amplifiers". This is a work of musical research also graphically rendered by a sort of heroic quest for a dead-head robot character with a Flying V guitar strung across his shoulders...
