I just compose anything I like. No hip-hop or pop. Experimental, sentimental, orchestral music are majors ones of which I know the categories. Keep genre expectations to the minimum. I have no problem in breaking them.

This is a channel for a studio project called Grand Prize (est. 2002), it's trip-hop with several other influences, rock, pop, indie/lo-fi, funk, psychedelia, boom-bap, folk, ect. Very much sample and beat driven as well...Anthoknee Battaglia (pictured) is the singer & Choice & Twan J. (not pictured) do production and engineering. We have around 500 songs finished over the past 5 yrs. with more forthcoming. Many of the older songs are rough demos and not mastered, please excuse it. Anywho, hope you dig...:)

Auteur-compositeur de chansons françaises qui n'attendent que de bons interprètes. 
Après des études au conservatoire et musicologie à la Sorbonne, j'ai enseigné l'éducation musicale à des élèves en école élémentaire de 1982 à 2021.

Dès 1989, alors que je découvrais la MAO, j'ai commencé à faire des centaines d'arrangements de chansons pour enfants ou adultes dans tous les styles pour les faire chanter. Cette solide expérience m'a amené dans un premier temps à composer des chansons pour mes élèves. Puis, je me suis lancé dans un répertoire pour adultes. 132 chansons à ce jour !

Mon répertoire va de la danse traditionnelle française (La bourrée du maumarié), à l’EDM (La tête dans les étoiles) en passant par la musique classique (Double concerto pour violon, violoncelle et orchestre à cordes) et la chanson française, le gros du panier, avec le plus souvent cette pointe d’humour qui fait tant défaut aujourd’hui dans beaucoup de chansons, (ce qui est étonnant quand on voit autant d’humoristes fleurir aux six points de l’Hexagone…)

Même si certains apprécient ma façon de chanter, mes chansons sont faites pour de vrais interprètes qui aiment monter sur scène.

Né en 1961 à Paris.

Author-composer and performer... by default of French songs. 
After studying at the Conservatoire and musicology at the Sorbonne, I taught music education to elementary school pupils from 1982 to 2021.

As early as 1989, when I was just discovering computer-assisted music, I started making hundreds of arrangements of songs for children and adults in all styles, to get them to sing along. This solid experience initially led me to compose songs for my students. Then I started working on a repertoire for adults. 132 songs to date!

My repertoire ranges from traditional French dance (La bourrée du maumarié), to EDM (La tête dans les étoiles), classical music (Double concerto for violin, cello and string orchestra) and French chanson, the mainstay of my repertoire, most often with that touch of humor so lacking in so many songs these days (which is astonishing when you see so many humorists flourishing at the six points of the Hexagon...).

Even if some people like the way I sing, my songs are made for real performers who like to get up on stage.

I'm an autistic person who loves making art, whether it's drawing, Photoshop,  or music!

All my songs (except some of my Royalty Free tracks) are made with BandLab.

I now have a second account that I will be uploading from!

ThrillMonkey’s love of excitement and danger has evolved into a unique blend of musical styles including hip hop, metal, rock, drum & bass, and rap. Their signature sound is instantly recognized by it’s originality and aggressive presentation.

Passionate singer/songwriter. Been an avid U2 and Bad Company fan for decades. Trying to get my music out there and who knows?? Would love the opportunity to get more airtime, radioplay and possibly a record deal. My influences are U2, Bad Company, Alter Bridge, Depeche Mode and Def Leppard, among so many others. Also enjoy Josh Groban, Bruce Springsteen, Queen and pretty much anyone who delivers quality music. More recently, I have been working on self-development of songwriting, mixing and mastering and music production and composition, all of which are intense, interesting and very exciting.
