The starting point. 

 

At the end of 2020, I heard Dua Lipa’s "Physical" on the radio and was immediately hooked!

This song has something special, 80's rock feel and a powerful melody... AS IF it was a POP version of a song from DOKKEN, LOUDNESS, WHITESNAKE, Y&T, STRYPER…released during the great Hair Metal / Hard Rock era. From then on, it was obvious to me that I had to work on a version of "Physical" as if it had been released in 1987.

 

One call to my old friend, Chris Matthey who’s a brillant guitarist, arranger, engineer and… IGNITION! Arrangements, production, video clip, photos, bio everything was thought and worked as a single concept: "Back to the L.A. rock scene in 1987 ». All driven by my passion for this music that I love so much and that has accompanied all the phases of my life. I wish you as much pleasure to discover my universe as I had to work on the project with so many talented artist. Cédric
