With NextApe, Antoine Pierre draws us into a highly eclectic musical universe. He offers up a music that, though its roots are in jazz, blends smoothly with markedly electronic influences.
We are treated to his talent for melodies, his broken rhythms and his sophisticated arrangements. His imagination is impregnated with music, with pictorial, cinematographic and theatrical works... and is also imbued with the present.
