Ministre X

Paris, France

ClekClekBoom

Ministre X aka Jonathan Chaoul is the co-founder of ClekClekBoom Recordings alongside Adrien Creuse Aka The BOO. Brought up on a diet of Hip-Hop, drum’n’bass, and Baile Funk, thanks to his Brazilian origins, he started producing and deejaying in and around Paris sixteen years ago.

Ministre X has adopted various guises over the years to accommodate for his broad musical taste, such as Voltaire, Ginger Ale and most notably Tchiky Al Dente and has seen his work released by the likes of Gilles Peterson and Seu Jorge. His eclectic and energetic mixing style has enabled him to travel the world following his passion.

Here at ClekClekBoom, Ministre X is an artistic director but never-the-less still finds the time to get into the studio and tear it up, as is evident on his debut ClekClekBoom EP. Employing UK bass and R’n’B vibes, "Subtitle Of Life" which featured guest vocalists Sana and Romy, came out in Feburary this year, showcasing yet another side to Ministre X.

If Ministre X’s eclectic back catalogue is anything to go by, the ClekClekBoom co-founder’s next EP, due in early 2013, is sure to keep everyone guessing.

  Paris is back and it’s no longer pumping to the filtered sound of disco house. Instead, a ‘90s generation have come of age born into the shadow of Mathieu Kassovitz’s classic film, La Haine. A world of internal tensions cracking the ground for new shoots to appear from a vibrant street culture that’s en Seine in the membrane, raised as much on global bass and hiphop’s freakiest mutations as the distant orbit of Chicago and Detroit. You can hear it in the music of ClekClekBoom, the Paris-based label which began in 2007 as a website releasing baile funk from Rio’s favelas but now serves up its own home-grown ghetto grooves.

  Once again, another heavy release from the french upcoming label ClekClekBoom Recordings. This one is a pop/club influenced 2 tracks produced by Ministre X, the franco-brazilian deejay and co-founder of the label. A very sensual femalish EP with two lovely guest singers: Sana and Romy. The first track "Calling Me" featuring the fresh and charming Sana is full of delicate and suave soul vibes mixed up with sophisticated club beat. The second track "Just To Please Ya" featuring Mademoiselle Romy., takes us to a darker side of emotions, with subtle vocals and down tempo instrumental full of slow and heavy sub-bass. This 2 track EP will take you to the sensitive side of this eclectic label.
