MATTHIEU
METZGER
saxophones, electronics
Multifaceted saxophonist Matthieu Metzger likes going beyond the traditional techniques associated with his instrument, notably thanks to his passion for electronic treatments – he's been designing real time transformation music software since he was a kid. This 31-year-old investigator of musical genres loves to venture into dangerous territory. As well as being a fine jazz player and improviser in groups large and small, he's dipped into contemporary music, rock, Metal and Mandingo. A self-taught sound engineer and mixmaster, he also produces and curates albums.
