He’s an Paris/Nancy-based solo musician with a background from Cambodia who is messing around with abstract electronics, noise and sequenced multi-layered rhythms.
Playing live is for him always an experiment within the situation of spontaneous thinking and decision-making through the energy of people & space.
Collaborations include the projects METRO:LIBIDO (with Imran Khan), MONOSOURCIL (with Pavel Viry, Boris Viry and Gaetan Belhenniche) and Marie-Pascale Hardy (LEYLI) .He is running the label Steak au zoo and organizer of a concert series for noise, experimental and free music, “GROLDEBOX”, in Nancy.
” D’ordinaire les compositeurs de musique de film attendent les images pour écrire la bande son qui va avec. Lafidki a grillé une étape et c’est tant mieux pour nous. Parfaite BO pour docu contemplatif et un peu foutraque, plus Abyss que Monde du silence, plus Starship Troopers que Microcosomos, on ne se lasse pas de réinventer les créatures inconnues et translucides qui pourraient illustrer les compositions de ce Chewbacca aux doigts de fée. Derrière son masque velu, Lafidki construit des pistes jouissives pleines de mystères et d’artifice, un peu comme si on apprenait que son costume n’en était pas un et que la plupart de ses sons se fabriquait au fond de sa gorge. En manque de sensations ? Rendez-vous au Nyctalope.”
