Jopo Stereo is just one of Jean-Philippe Renoult's sonic
identities: writer, radio producer,
sound artist, and cut-up DJ. Jopo Stereo is a solo musical concept that blends
electronic
compositions with voices and noises from a variety of musical backgrounds (pop,
rock, disco,
classical…).
These tiny audio fragments are then tuned, detuned and mixed
together to
become part of an extended “sample dust” environment.
To create
these works, he never
uses MIDI, just a multi-track recorder, computer and a few effects.
As a cut-up
DJ, Jopo
Stereo mixes easy-dirty listening, beat hop, bleep house, groovy punk hillbilly,
political
discourse and spoken subtexts with romantic sonic sonatas.
Jopo Stereo performs
on the
airwaves, in galleries, clubs, and through sound installations.
