Ludovic Navarre

Ludovic Navarre, alias St Germain, pioneer of French house/nu jazz music, has become an indisputable and respected reference on the international music scene.
His album 385, released in July 1995, sold over 200,000 copies worldwide and has achieved classic status. It was elected Record of the Year in England and was also nominated for the Dance Music Awards in London.
His involvement in music happened almost by chance. Early on, our bedroom composer dreamed of a career in sport. As an adolescent, his passionate interest in sailing, windsurfing, skiing and the like was cut short by an accident. He put out a number of EPs under a variety of pseudonyms. He soon dropped a straight techno style in favor of a more sensuous, melancholy musical approach. From this time on, a new cardinal point was added to the New York/Chicago/Detroit axis: Paris.
