- Sylvain Quément
Gangpol Und Mit is Sylvain Quément (Gangpol/sound) and Guilaume Gastagné (Guillaumit/visual), a group paving the road of combined sound and visuals.
This French duet is building a universe at the same time cheap and complex, ludic and meaningful, shifting and always unpredictable.
A contrasted electronic music, passing from the calmest melody to the wildest noise, from the most strict composition to the strongest cut-up, full of references: electro waltz, slaughtered swing, lyrical chiptune, broken folk, coconut cartoon, FM hits… Their music can be best described as post-Pop, avant-garde, and even IDM.
Hybrid visuals (graphic animations and numerical video), crossover between deviating cartoon and contemporary graphics, somewhere between rigorous composition and recycling of the most strange sources: weirdo animals, landscapes with shaken topography, venetian masks built from agglomerated popstars, and so on.
Together they've worked since 2002 with several achievements such as live events (including live for children), albums on various labels, print, t-shirts, dolls and even a DVD soon! They already collaborated with such artists as Juicy Panic (Mami Chan & Norman Bambi, Jp/Fr), Satanicpornocultshop (Jp), Deuce & Marcin (Mikmusik,Pl), Khima France (Fr), Groupgris (Fr), etc.
They played live events in such places as Fondation Cartier (Paris) Torpedo festival (Liège), AVmotional (Bucarest), Kultiplex (Budapest), Feedback festival (La Villette), Pudel Club (Hamburg), Nova Cinema (Bruxelles), Les Siestes électroniques (Toulouse), Electroni festival (Rennes), Placard#6 festival (Paris),.. where they shared the line-up with such artists as Felix Kubin, Bodenständig 2000, Candie Hank, Kap Bambino & Khima France, Transformer di Roboter, Blectum from Blechdom.
