BATARD TRONIQUE – Parasite
BATARD TRONIQUE
“Parasite”
For more than two decades, Batard Tronique has been building a body of work that is as prolific as it is elusive. Originally from the Saint-Malo area in western France, this self-taught musician has continuously explored the outer edges of breakcore, experimental hip-hop, drum & bass and adventurous electronic music. Behind his many aliases – including Batard Tronique, Slawowycz, Psykoxxx and Khadim – lies a single driving force: a relentless desire to push sonic boundaries and allow each project to develop its own identity.
Working entirely outside conventional music industry pathways, Batard Tronique writes, records and releases his music independently. Choosing the solitude of the studio over live performances, he has spent years crafting a deeply personal universe fueled by constant experimentation. His extensive discography, spread across multiple projects and complemented by his own Paris Zombie Netlabel, reflects an inexhaustible creative drive and a lasting commitment to underground culture and the free circulation of music.
With Parasite, he continues his pursuit of uncompromising, unpredictable electronic music. Fractured rhythms collide with abrasive textures, hip-hop influences intertwine with breakcore explosions, while atmospheric passages emerge unexpectedly from the chaos. Each track behaves like a living organism, constantly shifting between tension, collapse and reconstruction, refusing to settle into familiar forms.
More than simply an album, Parasite is an immersion into a constantly mutating sonic world. It resists categorization, challenges listening habits, and transforms unpredictability into a creative force.
A new chapter in Batard Tronique’s ongoing collaboration with Camembert Électrique, Parasite once again demonstrates his commitment to fearless experimentation, artistic independence and uncompromising underground music.
