It took less than a decade for Rone to establish himself as one of the main artists of the French electronic scene. With four studio albums on the Parisian label InFiné and numerous collaborations (Alain Damasio, Étienne Daho, Jean-Michel Jarre, Michel Gondry, François Atlas, The National), Erwan Castex aka Rone has always sought to break out of his comfort zone by crossing the boundaries of electronic music

In early 2017, his live at the Philharmonie de Paris made him win the Indés prize in the Live category. At the end of 2018, he offers a rereading of works by composer Benjamin Britten, accompanied on stage by the Maîtrise de Radio France and its choir director Sofi Jeannin. Rone then presents Motion, a 12-minute electro-classical piece, where the dreamy arpeggios of his machines blend with the sound of the instruments of the 85 classical musicians of the orchestra Les Siècles conducted by François-Xavier Roth. 2020 marks a new turning point in the artist’s career, beginning with Room With a View, a ten-day carte blanche creation at the Théâtre du Châtelet in Paris with (La)Horde and the Ballet national de Marseille. Room With a View addresses global issues such as global warming and collapse, which were the main inspiration for Rone’s fifth album, Room with a View, an opus in which he felt the need to connect to his early work of purely instrumental electronic music.

After winning the César for best original music for Frédéric Farrucci’s La Nuit venue in March 2020, Rone won the Cannes Soundtrack award for Les Olympiades directed by Jacques Audiard.
