He also writes a thesis, for the obtention of the Bachelor Degree in Audio Engineering, on the immersion and the emotion of a soundtrack in a video game, describing the interactive tools nowadays which revolutionize the audio and musical conception of a video game project, then the various technical and software cons to consider.

During his experience, he joins many Rock bands as drummer and composer. But the projects lack desire and ambition, he decides to spend more time on his personal composition : he finally decides to publish his composition project : INFRΛ.
Attracted by the ethnic instruments and the modern technical productions, his project devote mainly to the music and audio production for the video games, under the influence of modern composers like Olivier Derivière (Remeber Me), Daniel Licht (Dishonored) or Michael McCann (Deus Ex, XCOM).

"A lot of composer today fall into the linearity or they are limited to the sound produced by an instrument. My only obsession is to set this group apart by going further in the sound and music research, to ensure an incomparable immersion and spark the right emotion in each project."
