RONE (otherwise known as Erwan Castex) has been acclaimed one of the most exciting young French musicians on the electronic scene.
After obtaining his MA, he started working on film shoots in various roles (including assistant director, production coordinator and set decorator) while continuing to make music in his spare time. And then one day – InFiné – spotted some of his tracks on the web (“Bora” in particular, which was featured on Agoria’s “At The Controls” mix) and got in touch with him. From then on, things went very fast: he released his debut EP (2008), performed his first live show at the Rex Club and released his first critically-acclaimed album, “Spanish Breakfast”, in 2009.
Three years have passed since and now is the time for you to experience the new one, “Tohu-Bohu”. Following their first single release “Matthew and Toby” on Kieran Headmen’s Text label in 2010, London-based brothers Ben (keyboards) and Tom Page (drums) aka ROCKETNUMBERNINE released their follow up EP “The Lone Raver” on Soul Jazz Records in November 2011.
Having toured and performed alongside Kieran Hebden (Four Tet) throughout 2010, Gilles Peterson gave the band wider recognition with a live session on his Radio One show, as well as a performance at Gilles’ Worldwide Awards.
More recently, after jaw-dropping performances in Fabric’s Room One, the duo took their intense electronic music to New York’s Roseland Ballroom to support the most recent fans of the group Radiohead in September 2011.
A much-anticipated album is due in 2013.
