With his whimsical, melancholy music, Yann Tiersen has become a sought-after composer, not only for his soundtrack mold, simply in his have veracious. Borrowing from French folk music, chanson, shepherd's pipe walk-in and street music, as considerably as rock, vanguard, and classical and minimalist influences, Tiersen's misleadingly simple trend has been likened to Chopin, Erik Satie, Philip Glass, and Michael Nyman. The Paris-based composer became pop outside his native country for his score to Jean-Pierre Jeunet's Amélie, only maintenance most ostensibly overnight successes, he had been operative for age earlier the film's achiever brought him international hail. Born in Brest in Brittany, on June 23, 1970, Tiersen was raised in Rennes and made a name for himself as nonpareil of the star topology pupils at his local indoor garden (contempt middling academic grades). Tiersen studied fiddle and pianoforte from the ages of six-spot to 14, and at long last trained to be a music managing director. However, Tiersen rebelled against his graeco-Roman training and, elysian by the likes of Joy Division and the Stooges, played guitar with several local post-punk-influenced bands during his afterward adolescent age. At the same time, Tiersen was likewise composition soundtracks for short films and date for plays. Several of these pieces ended up on his low record album, Waltz stilbestrol Monstres, in 1995 and introduced his delicate simply profoundly excited style, and which to a fault featured intricate arrangements incorporating instruments as varied as miniature piano, banjo, cembalo, melodica, and carillon, as well as pianissimo and guitar. Tiersen played all of these instruments both in the studio, and in concert, which gave his former, one-man shows a theatrical attract that earned him a touch playing in 1996's Avignon Festival. However, Valse dES Monstres and its followup, 1996's Rue Des Cascades, were largely ignored by the public and by critics. His one-third album, 1998's Phare, met a unlike destiny; its single, "Monochrome," which was song dynasty by French pop genius Dominique A., was a radio hit and propelled the album, and Tiersen, to mainstream success in France. As Tiersen's herald grew, so did the setting of his records. That year's Black Sessions -- a live album of a radio recipient performance -- featured collaborations with Dominique A. and the Divine Comedy's Neil Hannon, as easily bands like Les Têtes Raides and the Married Monk, wHO as well appeared on 1999's more rock-oriented album Tout Est Calme. Soon subsequently, Tiersen was preparing his next record album when he was contacted by Jean-Pierre Jeunet, wHO precious Tiersen to score his adjacent movie, Amélie. Jeunet had heard Tiersen's euphony piece drive and had been so interpreted with it that he bought all of Tiersen's albums. Previously, the composer had contributed euphony to films such as Alice et Martin and La Vie Revee stilboestrol Anges, precisely this was his to the highest degree outstanding celluloid work yet. His Amelie score featured new and old compositions, and the film's success spun sour to Tiersen's music; the soundtrack sold over 200,000 copies in his country of origin. His succeeding proper record album, 2001's Absente, featured collaborations with Lisa Germano, as easily as longtime contributors Hannon and Dominique A., and likewise benefited from Amélie's success, selling century,000 copies in France. Throughout 2001 and 2002, Tiersen embarked on his to the highest degree challenging tours of France and the U.K. to date; this circuit was chronicled in 2003's alive album C'Était Ici. Later that yr, Tiersens' account for Well Bye Lenin! arrived.

Les Rita Mitsouko came together in the spring of 1979 when guitar player Fred Chichin and isaac Bashevis Singer Catherine Ringer began on the job on the same theater production. Upon their low meeting, they were inseparable, talking until they accomplished they should take up the band together. Ringer decided to require on lyrical duties, piece Chichin became the resident physician instrumentalist. They debuted later that year, with Ringer on the reed organ and Chichin on guitar, spell everything else was prerecorded. Around this time they also drafted Jean Naplin into the mix, although he was never a fellow member; he contributed songs to almost of their albums and became a frequent pardner. They realised early that the chemical science they had developed did not translate well to other musicians, thence they distinct to keep the mathematical group a span. They performed around Europe, performing several clubs and bars until lastly playing under the name les Rita Mitsouko for the low sentence in November of 1980.


They were a very popular live act at the time, and they collaborated with other artists oft, most notably with dramatist Armando Llamas before his death in 1981. The striation signed to Virgin Records in 1982, giving them their number one chance to release a single. "Peter Minnewit Dansant" was the song dynasty, and critics immediately branded the band minimalists. The B-side of the platter, "Don't Forget the Nite," became a surprisal tuner hit and was re-released as the A-side before long after. They touched to Cologne and began recording their eponymous debut record album, and by the end of 1984 the album was out and "La Jalousie" and "Marcia Baila" became big hits in Europe. Ensuing tours with the Smiths and Kid Creole revealed their growing popularity, and by 1986 they were ready to record their second album. Filmmaker Jean-Luc Goddard filmed the process, resulting in the flake documental Soigne Ta Droite, which is of stake primarily because of the unreleased material that appears on the soundtrack. Producer Tony Visconti was brought in, and the recording process was touched to England to finish the jut out. The No Comprendo was finally released at the end of the year to a big reception, making them one of the hottest bands in Europe and winning them many music awards. The striation stirred to New York in early 1987 to hold auditions for a live band. The next tour, which covered almost of Europe, was an tremendous success and lED to the eventual re-launching of La Cigale, an old dramatics that the band enjoyed. During the tour they also made friends with Sparks, wHO invited them to collaborate at some point in the future. Musicians like Boy George and Michael Hutchence voiced their interest in working with the group, just these projects failed to go anyplace and the band just touched ahead to the adjacent record album. Marc et Robert was the following album, written by and large in the studio apartment, and featuring songs written and performed with Sparks. Another tour followed, ahead to the construction of the band's fresh studio apartment in their home.


By 1990, they distinct to release a remix album (Re) and execute a monthlong interlocking at La Cigale. The performances were so successful that the deuce agreed to prolong the appearance, staying until January of 1991. It was then that they accomplished that they wanted to record their albums onstage at La Cigale, starring to the construction of an complicate recording setup in the theater of operations. They began work on the album in 1992, finally cathartic Systeme D in November of 1993. More hits appeared, including a couple with Iggy Pop on "My Love Is Bad."

Radio 1 Dj Odd After Gay Bondage Session

Former Radio 1 disc jockey Kevin Greening died of a drug overdose after a gay bondage session, an inquest has been told.

A post mortem last month found that Greening, 44, died from a heart attack caused by a drug overdose in December, at a time when he had been a presenter on London's Smooth Radio.

And speaking at today's inquest, Coroner Paul Knapman has recorded that Greening's death was as a result of misadventure.

Greening's boyfriend Sean Griffin, the ocuupier of the Wandsworth flat in which Greening was found, said: "Kevin and I had a very happy and very vigorous sex life.

"It was not conventional by heterosexual norms perhaps but it was a sex life which was vigorous and imaginative and we enjoyed each other."

Greening was part of the launch line-up of Virgin Radio in 1993 and joined Radio 1 the following year. He co-hosted the station's flagship breakfast show with Zoe Ball from 1997 to 1998 before returning to a weekend hosting slot.

It is believed the former breakfast show presenter had taken large quantities of cocaine, ecstasy and GHB on the night of his death.

Greening also worked at Radio 5 Live, as well as London stations Jazz FM, Heart 106.2 and XFM.
