He drives customs officers crazy. You can picture him on the fringes of Rajasthan, jamming with tabla players; hitting the road with Romani musicians around Bucharest. One minute he’s lost in Essaouira to the sound of gnawa, the next he’s in Seville, caught up in a full-blown gypsy fiesta.
Whether playing solo or surrounded by musicians, behind the decks or at the foot of a volcano, DJ Click remains a deeply curious and genuinely endearing musician. Known as the “all-terrain DJ” or “General”, he is one of the pioneers of the Global Groove scene. For years, he has travelled across cultures and continents in search of rhythms, encounters and new sounds to remix, twist and reshape.
Producer, DJ, artistic director and founder of the No Fridge label, he has produced around thirty albums from his studio and created remixes for Manu Chao, Watcha Clan, René Lacaille, High Tone, Rachid Taha, La Caravane Passe, Mahala Raï Banda and The Alaev Family, among others. His mobile studio allows him to work directly alongside musicians he meets on the road, while also producing thematic albums for RFI Instrumental, the music library of Radio France Internationale.
For DJ Click, borders are mostly there to be crossed. And miles are there to find the beat.
