Biography of Jon Georgsson |  |
In the early 90's, Jón mainly composed music for underground computer movements such as Dreamdealers, and has been part of a commercial diffusion under TRSI Records in 1996.
He then dedicates to Acousmatic music composing during 3 years within Denis Dufour's class at French National Music School. His creations, performances and installation works are credited by an institutional award in 1999. His sense of sound design and collaborations with artists coming from various Medias, lead him to perform in prestigious art galleries, theaters and clubs in France, USA and Japan.
Fortuitous meeting with international DJ Tom Pooks has drifted Jón Georgsson into decidedly more dancefloor productions than on his previous achievements. In 2004 he releases his new single “All The Way” under Fafa Monteco's label Hypnotic (with the exclusive remixes of Loudeast and Tom Pooks), followed up by the “DRD - Motoracer” track on HY:BR compilation House Invaderz which has been a hit. Each record is massively supported by big names such as Ralph Lawson, Chris Duckenfield, DJ Linus, Mazi, David Duriez, Jack De Marseille, Monika Kruse...
In 2006, he composed the original soundtrack for the Canadian short movie “A year minus a day” by Pierre Blaizeau and Murielle Freoa. His music of classical inspiration is acclaimed by critics from festivals in which the movie is submitted, and will lead him to write some more work for motion picture films current 2009.
He now lives in Japan and performs in Tokyo clubs (Womb, Air, Unit, Module...) with Minimal Techno DJ sets and Tech House live performances produced with the help of Neuromancie.
He signs in 2009 the original soundtrack of Shunsuke Teshima movie “Orbit”. |
