Les Joyaux De La Princesse

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Les Joyaux De La Princesse is a cult French one-man band operating in the industrial network. Some of his releases are in the heavy industrial-noise vein, while other contains melancholic and sad music for organ and piano mixed with historical French speeches. Each of Les Joyaux De La Princesse's records is a sort of small audio document presenting an historical fact, usually located in the France of 1930s and 1940s. Most of them are sold out and sought-after collector items due to the small number of copies pressed and the extremely luxurious packages.

He has worked with many other well known industrial/dark ambient artists, such as Regard Extrême, Death In June, Muslimgauze, and Blood Axis. His sound is truly unique, and does not conform to one single genre.

He has several releases under the alias La Voix Des Nôtres.
