Low Jack (Philippe Hallais), perfectly personifies the new breed of electronic musician who has grown up between the analog/digital age, using intuitive software programs like Logic and Ableton to spontaneously express ideas and emotions. Always fascinated and interested in analogue drum machines and synthesizers for their warm and deep sound, he performs and produces exclusively with machines like the legendary Roland Tr-909, Tr-808, Tb-303, Elektron MD UW and MM.
