He got his first inspiration from his brothers record collection from listening to 70's bands such as Black Sabbath, Led Zeppelin, Frank Zappa, early Genesis then being inspired by the 80’s punk industrial metal and new wave scene. At the end of 80’s he played bass guitar in many different new wave and punk bands in France.
