Look For Device

Guillaume and Anthony form a duo from Bordeaux who have been sharing their passion for music since school, where they met in the 90s. Their initial great taste for rock or even noise music was shattered when they discovered and listened to some English mixtapes brought back by friends. Their move from rock to electronic music occured when they found out about artists such as The Chemical Brothers, Dj Panacea or the Digital Hardcore Recording label team founded by talented Alec Empire. Many nights and parties followed and allowed them to perfect this 'electro culture'. They were both involved in different rock and other mixed types of music projects and bands and thus experienced machines. They finally went into partnership in 2009 and Look For Device was born. Why does this name 'Look For Device' sounds like an obvious fact ? A direct reference to the Sheffield born duo and to their taste for playing with synthesizers' and drum machines' buttons. In the studio, they set up their friends Stylophone, TR606, TB303 and more oldfashioned Yamaha, Roland or Korg things in order to create an electronica sound in the broadest sense of the word. All this in the pure line of works of artists they love such as : Boards of Canada, Mike Paradinas, Luke Vibert, LFO, Amon Tobin and their fellows from Warp, Rephlex,Ninja Tunes or Planet Mu.
