French producer under many guises, Arnaud Rebotini, Zend Avesta and Black Strobe, has recently released a new album called Music Components on Citizen Records. This time he uses his real name to sign a project using his collection of early synthesizers and drum machines to produce an album of very Detroit inspired techno. He has been taking this new project to clubs for an improvised live performance of man and machines for a truly dynamic dance-floor experience. The next performance will be taking place for the annual ‘Fete de la Musique’ party at Batofar, Paris and will be streamed live on Awdio.com. We caught up with Arnaud in his studio to find out more about this iconic producer.  Read the interview
