Be he alone or with his faithful henchmen, 9th cloud has been wandering with ease for more than a decade the skies of electronic musics.
Self-taught and quite unconventional musician – but a genuine audiovisual engineer – he compiles, twists, digests and appropriates many influences coming as well from jazz as from hip-hop, without ever moving away from electronica.
After having experienced his formula for success in his first press-acclaimed album A Monkey in a Yellow Hat in 2004, he made his work more intimate and gives birth to the Delicate Sounds in 2007.
In 2012, with 43 sunsets, 9th cloud takes in the hip hop mentors and puts beatmakers into orbit for a bleeped ballade on a moving and robotic tomorrow.
From arid landscapes to subtle sound structures, 9th cloud turns light into music to light up the electronic scene with a new wave.
The track Scalettamento, featured in our compilation, is also part of the live project Prism, A/V collaboration between 9th Cloud and the visual artist Cyril Meroni
