Ceaselessly innovative in a career spanning more than 30 years, Richard Pinhas is recognized as one of France?s major experimental musicians. A composer, world-class guitarist and electronics innovator, he is a key figure in the international development of electronic rock music. His band Heldon fused electronics, "diabolical guitar work" and rock to create a pioneering, aggressive music that was a precursor to industrial music and techno. Throughout his career, Pinhas has created music that is both visceral and visionary: aggressive, emotional and seductively hypnotic, his music intertwines philosophical, literary and musical theories at its core. Pinhas? work over the past decade, featuring his "Metatronic" system of electronically treated solo guitar compositions, is as radically innovative as anything in his early career. Comparable to the work of Fripp, Eno and Godspeed You! Black Emperor, Pinhas? new guitar / electronics / spoken word works shine on his latest album, Metatron, a landmark work in his career, where music, meaning, word, sound and process find full unity.

The Richard Pinhas Trio are Richard Pinhas (HELDON), Antoine Paganotti (MAGMA), Jerome Schmidt
