Irène Drésel Tour Dates and Upcoming Concerts

High-colored techno, sensual and bold : voilà, a summation of the world of Irène Drésel. A hypnotic universe where languid and sporty BPMs meet crystalline melodies, foiling the expectations of techno listeners. A polymorphic artist who has left the frenzy of Paris for the calm of the countryside, Irène Drésel tends to her universe down to the smallest details, as evidenced on stage by the roses that gracefully overhang the cold steel of her machines. Irène Drésel composes alone, but she is accompanied live by a percussionist, Sizo Del Givry, embellishing this visual singularity with a certain aura - a duo concept that nonetheless does not exclude, now and then, the one-off interventions of guests. The producer, who has given numerous concerts, has also performed at major festivals, including Le Printemps de Bourges, Ososphere, Arte Concert and Fusion Festival. After two successive EPs, « Rita » (2017) and « Icône » (2018), her first album, « Hyper Cristal », was released in spring 2019 and her latest album, « Kinky Dogma », was released in June 2021. It highlights the repetitive and spatial nature of her songwriting, plunging us into her wild psyche to dance the night away in fields of flowers. At times frenetic and at others more solemn, the music should be experienced as a spiritual chanting, made to release our bodies into Dionysian revelries. Off stage, Irène Drésel recently stepped into the world of cinema by composing the original score for the Eric Gravel film "À Plein Temps" (“Full Time”), released in March 2022 and starring actress Laure Calamy. For this work, Irène Drésel won the César ("the highest film honor in France") for Best Original Music in February 2023. She is the first woman in history to win the César in this category. Her score for “À Plein Temps” also won “Best Music” at the 12th Tiantan Awards of the Beijing International Film Festival (BJIFF) and is nominated for “Le Prix des Lumières” 2023.
