Rock journalist since 1979 : « GIG, MODERNE,
GLORIA, NEW WAVE, L ‘ EQUERRE, LE GAIPIED
, LE MATIN DE PARIS », radio producer and
animator since 1981 for RADIO FG « Fréquence
gay » doing shows hosting experimental music
and Indus Goth : « VOODOO, SPIRAL ».
He went on to manage independent bands in the
80’s. After travelling around the world
in the late 80’s he started a new concept
in the Alternative Dance Music world with shows
centred around techno music and the Electro Dance
scene : PSYCH-OUT and eventually, the RADIO FG
flagship radio shows : “HAPPY HOUR”
which, everyday and for 10 years, informed people
of all techno orientated events and especially
RAVE UP, the main show on a Saturday night, which
welcomed the best national and international artists
to a warm-up session before the party.
His shows, and especially RAVE UP, had a live
span of over ten years and enabled him to collaborate
with DJ’s and producers from all spheres
of influence such as : « APHEX TWIN, ROBERT
ARMANI, JOEY BELTRAM, UNDERGROUND RESISTANCE,
JEFF MILLS, LENNY DEE, LIZA NELIAZ, MOBY,+8 LABEL
» and especially all the biggest names in
trance « JUNO REACTOR, KOX BOX, PSYCHAOS,
X DREAM, TSUYOSHI, ANTARO,ROBERT LEINER , TIP,
DINO PSARAS, TIM SCHULDT, ETNICA, TOTAL ECLISPSE,
3D VISION etc. » as well a horde of new
talents who have now emerged « ATYSS, DIGITAL
TALK, DATAKULT, SQUID.
Pat has also been the organiser and co-organiser
and has been responsible for booking artists for
many raves and parties (Transept, Full Scale Trip,
In The Forest) and has also contributed to creating
the GAIA concept from its birth to the 5th edition,
and with this media coverage, techno and trance
music finally had a national resonance. Since
1996, he has been around the world, mixing in
tandem with a young Dj Greg, aka ATYSS, a musical
project is brewing…
