about

"Hi, I am Bambounou (Jeremy Guindo). I live in Paris, China Town. This is also where I grew up. I am now 22 years old. "Orbiting" is my debut album.

I was listening to Radio Voltage when I was about 8 years old. This is when they were playing French touch and Chicago house. From then on I’ve always been into electronic music, but I really seriously started to get involved when I was 16. I downloaded some ghetto software, so my friends and I could do some Rap instrumentals for us, doing some really bad Clash. So basically from here I discovered there’s more to this, and I really took a liking to producing.

When I met French Fries (Valentino Canzani) I started to learn the basics of DJing from him. Once hooked I kept practicing on my own. At my first public DJ gig at the age of 19 I was already playing with two of my favorite producers and DJs: Bok Bok and Lvis-1990.

French Fries once played one of my early tracks "Dogon" at one of his gigs. Tekilatex and Orgasmic (former hip hop collective TTC, now Sound Pellegrino) were playing as well, and they went crazy for this track.

"Dogon" wasn’t my first official release though. My first release was on Youngunz (owned by Guillaume Le Donche) called "Animism EP". It came out in July 2010.

The main influences for my music are African rhythm grooves, Chicago and Detroit House artists like DJ Funk, DJ Slugo and of course the Dance Mania label. I am also really inspired by UK Dubstep ,UK Funky and Techno. I also need to mention Drexciya.

Music from video games or anything Nintendo in general has probably also left it's marks on my creative soul. Without wanting to sound like a teenager who hasn’t yet reached puberty, I am very much into video games, cat gifs, any weird animals on youtube, Curiosity on Mars, fantasy genre books, fiction novel and swimming. I swim at least 3 times a week.

As 50 Weapons is really mainly a club music label, I didn’t want to do a pop album with real songs. This is why I chose to have no singers or any ‘proper’ lyrics featured on it. I started with quite a minimalist approach. I essentially wanted to have some key techno tracks mixed with some serious dancefloor bangers.

Even though I feel the tracks are all quite different within there own right, they still come under the umbrella of 90s house and techno mixed with some kind of bass music.

I have a running theme throughout, which is Space (Orbiting)."

All the tracks are great but Stepper is the standout for me! pounding syncopated kicks, rolling handdrums and playful sample work, dancefloor destroyer. Jack G.

My whole body agrees with the pace of this short but solid track list. A generous helping of acoustic rhythm samples ignited by breakbeats add extra attention to full range movement on the dancefloor. Not a beat wasted. cherub420
