Serial is a new podcast from the creators of This American Life, hosted by Sarah Koenig. Serial will follow one story - a true story - over the course of a whole season. We'll follow the plot and characters wherever they take us and we won’t know what happens at the end of the story until we get there, not long before you get there with us. Each week we'll bring you the latest chapter, so it's important to listen in order, starting with Episode 1.

/****** FR ******\
Mindpleasure, Auteur-Compositeur, Arrangeur et DJ, a commencé par jouer de la harpe a l'âge de huit ans, puis se mit rapidement au piano. 
Il réalisa sa première composition electro à l'âge de treize ans, à l'aide d'un synthétiseur (Roland E14). Les encouragements du public qu'il reçut lorsqu'il la joua en live, furent pour lui un déclic. Il savait dorénavant que la musique serait une de ses principales sources d'émotions.

C'est pourquoi par la suite il se mit facilement à la MAO (Musique Assistée par Ordinateur) et ne s'en détacha plus. Peu de temps après il posa ses mains sur des platines car l'envie de faire découvrir ses coups de cœur musicaux au public le démangeait.

Avec le temps il évolua dans des styles hétéroclites, aussi différents les uns que les autres (House, Minimal, Electro Jazz Swing, Trip-Hop, Lounge).

Pour lui la musique a un pouvoir particulier sur l'être humain et il aime en jouer. Ses sets DJ sont un voyage à travers le temps et les continents, et son seul objectif est d'entrer en osmose avec son public.

Que ce soit dans ses compositions ou dans ses sets, il vous sera impossible de le classer dans un style particulier tant il aime à se diversifier. Mindpleasure voit la musique comme une expérience chimique ou les ingrédients sont les émotions. « Le meilleur moyen d'apprécier la musique n'est pas seulement de l'écouter avec les oreilles mais avec le corps tout entier »

/***** ENG ******\
Mindpleasure; song-writer, composer, arranger and DJ, started to play harp at the age of eight, and then quickly moved on to piano.
He created his first electro composition at the age of thirteen with a synthesizer (Roland E14). The support of the audience when he performed it live was a trigger for him. He knew that music would be one of his main emotional sources in the future.

That is why he further on easily fell to "computer-generated music". Several times later, he put his hands on a turntable because the desire to make people discover his musical preferences was too strong.

Over time, he evolved to heterogeneous styles, each one different than the other (House, Minimal, Electro Jazz Swing, Trip-Hop, Lounge).

According to him, music has a special power on human beings and he likes to use this power. His DJ sets are a travel through Times and Continents; and his only goal is to be in perfect harmony with the people who are listening to him.

In any way, compositions or sets, you cannot classify him in a defined style because he enjoys to be diversified. Mindpleasure sees music as a chemical experience where the ingredients are emotions. "The best way to appreciate music is not to listen to it with ears only, but with the whole body".
