In the 90’s, Opale discovers ethnik psybient downtempo and embraces the psychedelic culture, a revelation that changed both her life and its perception.

Invited around the globe to perform at a wide variety of events such as Burning Man in Nevada, surfing from the Trance to the Contempory Arts scene. 
For a few years she has been building up the tempo, collaborating live with various artists such as Adn at the Ozora Festival, the epic World People pirates, the Eclipse and Open Mind in Canada ; with Don Pedro Askata on electronic drums at the Boom, the Karma Kusala and Aya Atma, Lakay  with his trumpet at the Hadra Festival or with Tasha at the famous Chrysalid & Wildthings in the UK.

Opale weaves electro-world grooves with waves of beyond the border emotions delightfully, inviting us on a journey through the most celestial and tribal depths, arousing the intellect and the senses.

Her passion led her to become responsible for the music programmation of the Harmonic Festival which takes place every summer in the south of France. Launched in 2015, Harmonic is an alternative culture gathering open towards music, environment, spirituality and well-being.

Opale currently works on a compilation to be released on Ultimae featuring works by young artists she met on the road as well seasoned composers of the downtempo scene.


Dans les années 90 Opale découvre les sons psybient ethnik downtempo et embrasse la culture psychedelique, révélation qui a changé sa vie et la perception qu’elle en a.

Invitée aux quatre coins du monde à jouer pour des évènements aussi variés qu’hétéroclites tel que le Burning Man dans le Névada,  dans de nombreux festivals trance ou encore dans le monde de l’Art contemporain.
Depuis quelques années elle accélère le tempo en collaborant avec différents artistes en live, tel que Adn pour le festival Ozora, chez les épiques pirates des World People, ou pour l’Eclipse festival ou l’Open Mind au Canada. Avec Don Pedro Askata aux percus électroniques au Boom, Karma Kusala, & Aya Atma, Lakay à la trompette à l’Hadra, ou encore avec Tasha, aux fameux rendez-vous des Chrysalid & Wildthings en Angleterre.

Elle nous régale sur des ambiances electro-world, tissées de samples d’ailleurs, mariés à des nappes d’émotions et vous invite à la rejoindre dans l’ivresse des profondeurs… Des plus célestes aux plus tribales... Des plus sensibles aux plus mentales.

Cette passion l’amène à devenir responsable de la programmation musicale du Festival Harmonic qui a lieu en été dans le sud de la France. Lancé en 2015, Harmonic est un évènement prometteur, orienté sur la culture alternative, que ce soit dans le domaine musical, environnemental, spirituel ou du bien-être.
