Sav and his Basic Tape partner Ben met on a sound engineering course in Paris five years ago. At the time, Ben was more interested in the intricate structures of progressive rock and he still utilises that background now by contributing live guitar to many of their productions, while local native Sav was enamoured by the club-meets-pop side of the dance music scene.
Their music evolved at a rapid pace as it transitioned to the electronic pop that we hear today. Like many young French people, Basic Tape’s lives have been soundtracked by the creativity of Daft Punk, but they also cite Swedish House Mafia as an influence alongside the multi-genre mainstream mastermind Max Martin.
