"This EP is the result of years of identity research.

After more than 10 years of electronic music, I succeeded in this second EP to gather all the musical currents which inspired me and made vibrate all my life. My artistic approach is to create a fusion between the different musical genres that influence me, and especially, to give each of my tracks, a real identity. Percussion with Tribal sounds, a heaviness that we recognize Bass Music, rhythms shifted and dancing, this is what qualifies Leese.

This mixture is tasty, between the emotional, and the technical, I want at all costs to build original structures, varied and innovative, while traveling through all these currents, in the desire to make the listener feel.

I like this round aspect of this EP. Everything ties together, and is carefully handled. I don't know exactly what I'm trying to bring together, but I feel when I'm going in the right direction or not, each time I produce. It's a heavy and sub urge that takes to the trips, with these percussions that recall our primal instincts and speak directly to our body. The human reconnection that allows the addition of oriental voices, accompanied by melodic layers (with partimony).

I hope to touch the originality, I hope to create the astonishment, the surprise. The moment of creation can sometimes be very introspective, I do not count any more the hours or I tore off the hair of my head, to try to find my personal touch and what will make me vibrate myself in this process. The end result is self recognition. I am very happy to be able to present you this EP, as well as to deliver you a part of me."

"8 months ago, I released my first EP with YUKU.

Nomäa was intended to be hard-hitting, and was experienced as a daily outlet, both live and digital. Däarm continues an inner journey with new tribal influences, deep and cathartic bass that will bring you back to your primal instincts.

I'm always carried by Afro/Arabic influenced percussion, it's my own style and it's going to follow me for a while. This kind of rhythm inspires me a lot, there's no doubt about it: it's like feeling each instrument through all the bodies, which are just moving.

A more ambient and low-key feel for Däarm came to me.
Nomäa was an opportunity to evolve and develop my drums. After that, it was natural for me to return to this more "melodic" side, more musical in a way. Some synths appear and I'm happy that this other part of me has emerged and merged with the percussive/groovy side of my tracks.
The bass is also more present. I wanted this time, that people make faces when listening to this new EP, the ones we make when it's too heavy inside and that it shows on the face (cfr "Vuil").

I had the idea to separate "Donker Dag" in two parts: the first one in Nomäa, and the second one here. During a live show I had transitioned Donker Dag with an old track "Az5". This transition seemed so obvious to me that I decided to make a second version, and I like the idea of two EP's finally being intertwined.

With Däarm we are still walking along this line, other new things just came on it."

DRIFT released on YUKU October 5, 2023

" I present to you: Drift.
This project has been a true artistic challenge, surpassing everything I've accomplished so far. I constantly questioned every detail, starting from scratch numerous times, leading to a delay in the release by several months. I delved into every aspect deeply, and although there are always possibilities for further creativity, I decided to stop at this point.

My aim was to return to the essence of Nomaa by blending more deconstructed productions with melodies and basslines, thus uniting the styles of my last two EPs with Yuku. The quirky and unexpected rhythms remain at the heart of my tracks, accompanied by new influences that sneak in here and there. Each track possesses a personal structure and tells a captivating story that never ceases to take you on a journey without stagnation.

This EP also provided me with a wonderful opportunity to collaborate with three artists I hold in high regard, both personally and artistically: Capiuz, Le Motel, and Ravl. Our values, tastes, and working methods perfectly harmonized, bringing to me lightness and balance to a project that was inherently introspective.

If there's one word that describes Drift perfectly, it's maturity. This EP represents my final breath of this year.
I've decided to take a break from solo production and focus on future duo projects. I've poured my heart and soul into this endeavor, and I hope you feel the emotions I've infused, just as I have."

"This album holds a very special, almost intimate, place in my heart.

Since I was 15, I’ve always composed alone, diving deep into solitude and exploring its most hidden corners. That solitary journey allowed me to build my own musical language, but for this new release on Yuku, I felt the need for something different: to open myself up, to meet other perspectives, to explore new forms of musical dialogue.

It seemed essential to experiment with something new, to break out of my creative habits, and even to put myself at risk. I wanted to step away from the artistic isolation I knew so well — which had begun to weigh on me — and invite otherness into my music, to see what it might bring.

So I set out to create a collaborative album, an ambitious project that pushed me to learn a lot: patience, listening, letting go, and that delicate search for balance that every artistic collaboration requires. Each exchange with the nine artists involved was unique, sometimes smooth, sometimes more complex, but always meaningful and creatively rich.

Throughout the process, I experimented with ways of working that were often far from my own. I had to rethink how I compose, how I structure things, how I communicate. And that’s what made the journey so valuable. Some collaborations felt natural, others required distance, doubt, adaptation, and all of them helped me grow.

I’m deeply grateful to these nine artists for jumping on board with me in this slightly crazy project that accompanied me throughout the past year. It’s a joy and an honor to bring them together here, and to introduce some of them for the first time into the Yuku universe.

This album is as much a collection of encounters as it is a reflection of my desire to evolve. It marks a turning point for me, a moment where I realize that music, no matter how personal it may be, becomes even more powerful when it’s shared."
