..ok, my (first) name is Jovan, but I called myself WalkingGuitar because since April 2014 I´m music-making Walks with my guitar and improvising singing while walking, and yes, of course, I document it with my camcorder (videos).

The genre is rock music, but unplugged. I call it Walknrrocknroll or Walknrocknrollmusic. And the thing about lyrics is also different because I only sing with language, which only arises at the moment of singing (and then disappears).

& the thing about understanding my singing language.. no, I don't understand it myself! ..& only has advantages for me because, for example, I never have to write lyrics and I don't have to think about what I'm singing! :)

Mathias Delplanque (born in Ouagadougou, Burkina Faso in 1973) is a composer, a performer, an improviser, a music critic, an author of sound installations, a teacher, a composer for theater and dance and the founding member of several musical ensembles. He lives and works in Nantes (France).

His work as a composer started in 1998 as he graduated from the Fine Arts School and decided to put an end to his sculpture activity to turn towards sound creation. He since released more than twenty records on various international labels. He collaborated with musicians from various points of the musical spectrum, and worked with numerous visual artists, writers, videasts, photographers, film directors, dancers… His installation works are frequently shown in galleries and art centers, and he regularly performs on stage, solo or accompanied by other musicians. 

Mathias's sound work takes on several main lines and develops through different identities. As Lena, he produces a kind of clubby electronic music strongly influenced by jamaïcan music and Berlin dubby techno. The works done under his own name (developed on records, performances or sound installations, and being either based on field recordings or containing instrumental parts) all directly deal with the question of the relation between space and music : music as architecture, spaces made out of sound etc…

Initially a pure sequenced studio production, Mathias’s music transformed with the years into a more improvised and flexible creation. Showing a real interest in live electronic music, he developped a very personal approach of electronic improvisation, based on the use of multiple controlers that engage the body in the production of electronic performances. His live creations generally combine electronic sounds and acoustic instruments treated and sampled in real time.

Biographie
PRAKTIKA (France, Blanc Manioc)

French music producer and DJ Jérôme Fouqueray (aka Praktika) has twelve years of experience in music and was looking for new sounds and influences when he turned his ears onto the other side of the Mediterranean sea.
In 2014, he took his music machines for the first time to the warm lands of West Africa - a musical playground so reach in possibilities that he settled there. Burkina Faso, Ivory Coast, Mali, Nigeria, Benin, Chad, Senegal... Praktika lives to- day between these various countries, hungry for new sonic palettes, new musical structures and workflow to spice up his own music productions.
It took him five years to develop a sound outside the beaten tracks, often through live improv sessions & jams with local instrumentists.
His dj-sets paint a road-movie where dark techno blends with South African Gqom, Chicago house and West African rhythms and sounds. Each set always co- mes with with a touch of surprising turns, brought about by Praktika’s fresh edits of old African tunes.
