Etrangers (French for ‘Outsiders’) is the brainchild of
Steven Jones, a European electro-producer based in
London, Paris and New York. Steven’s background in film, fashion and creative arts feeds into the electronic landscapes of the music he creates with Etrangers.
Etrangers is the sound of 21st Century electro-romance.
A melange of cool beats and haunting, disembodied vocals, the music of Etrangers grew out of the cult Photographic installation, Bureau Des Etrangers, a collection of works combining photography and electronica. Drawing inspiration from the ambience of backstreet electro-clubs all over Europe, the music evolved into a collection of accessible club tracks with a distinctive avant-gard vibe.
Influences include Depeche Mode, Goldfrapp, Sartre, De Beavoir, midnight catfights, the deep sound of longing. Agnetha Faltskog meets Yello meets Kraftwerk on the Trans-European Express. Murakami. Goldfrapp. The howling wind. Francoise Hardy. Trixie-Annie. Berlin's Electric Dance-bar. The seething rhythms of the blue hour. Scandinavian melancholy infused with a South American eroticism. You need an infusion.
