Coming from the rock scene at first, he later came to electronic music, starting Anoraak beside his drummer position.

His music is related to the retro-synth and 80's inspired scenes recently highlighted by the movie Drive's soundtrack. His sound is described as "dreamy synth-filled tracks that fall somewhere on the spectrum between disco and new wave", "contemporary but retro-tinged" or "easy, breezy [...] chugging along on airy synthesizers like a weekend train to the beachside town of Nantes". Now his music is considered as "70s inspired disco [...]. Borrowing influences from pop, disco, house, and indie".

Anoraak has collaborated with artists such as the former Swedish Italo Disco outfit Sally Shapiro, American singer Slow Shiver, French producer College, Danish singer Lydmor, and has also remixed numerous artists such as Neon Indian, Mika, Junkie XL, Wild Belle, Julian Perretta, among others.

Anoraak Lyrics

Un soir, dans l'après-minuit
J'avais envie de danser
Danser sans ennui
Sans regard pesant
Danser comme une enfant (gang)
Et ça m'fait du bien (oh, gang, gang)
J'vous jure que ça m'fait du bien (gang)
J'oublie mes chagrins (oh, gang, gang)
Je profite de la chaleur (gang)
(Oh, gang, gang)

Une impression de déjà-vu (gang)
(Oh, gang, gang)

(Gang) juste une femme adossée
Dans un complet blanc (oh, gang, gang)
Et des boots argentées (gang)
Un pas devant l'autre (oh, gang, gang)
(Oh, gang) vous dansez? (Oh, gang)
(Oh, gang, gang, oh, gang)
Une énergie étrange m'emporte (oh, gang, gang)
Je flotte, je flotte, je flotte

(Gang) un soir, dans l'après-minuit (oh, gang, gang)
J'avais envie de danser (gang)
Danser sans ennui (oh, gang, gang)
Sans regard pesant (oh, gang)
Danser comme une enfant (oh, gang)
(Oh, gang, gang) et ça m'fait du bien (oh, gang)
J'vous jure que ça m'fait du bien
J'oublie mes chagrins (oh, gang, gang)
Je me laisse porter par la chaleur

Vous dansez?

(Gang)
(Oh, gang, gang)
(Gang)
(Oh, gang, gang)
(Oh, gang)
(Oh, gang, oh, gang, gang)
(Oh, gang)
(Oh, gang, gang) une énergie étrange m'emporte

Sometimes it's too early
To put on your pyjamas
So forget about your whiskey
And go looking for your yang to gang
Oh, gang, gang, oh, gang
Sometimes it's too early
To put on your pyjamas
So forget about your whiskey
And go looking for your yang to gang
Oh, gang, gang
Oh, gang
Gang, oh
Gang, oh
Gang, oh
Gang
