PLIMPLIM

Plimplim plays electronic industrial ambient film music music.

A sonic landscape for a dreamy picture. Pulsations mix with crackles, Emerging voices from nowhere.

Plimplim is the musical alias of Jérôme Marchand. He composes electronic music with filmic accents, where strange and delicate melodies gravitate, emerging from industrial void. His musical practice is defined by a constant and sharp sound research, whether it is purely synthetic or by the capture of real sounds, mainly with modular synths. He has a degree in video art and in 2014 obtained a DEM in electroacoustic composition at the Bordeaux Conservatory. He has regularly led sound discovery workshops in schools. He has played in (f,m,q,s)+a, an experimental improvisation band, has also worked and produced several bands (like the infamous trio Templier) or as an instrumentalist or producer and has also worked with poets, for theatre and dance. In 2010, he created Violence Conjugale band, with whom he released 2 albums on BornBad Records and Teenage Menopause. Plimplim also played in CUT, a duet with Stefane Cales where live video creation meets music made live on modular synths. He has also released several records under his own moniker, whatever the support. He produced and performed with Monsieur Crane (Tonn Recordings) during 2021-2025.

He also works on Mycophonia with Tiziana Bertonicini and Isabelle Jelen, and plays with the last-named in Ain't No Grave, an experimental duet.

Heimat, création Jérôme Brabant
