Parazite

Parazite is a band of experimental, electronic and "bruitist" music created by Spot Phelizon and the film maker Marc Caro (both on synths) in 1977, then joined by Antenna Meadows (drums) and Joëlle Coulombeau (bass) in 1978. Caro co-directed with Jean-Pierre Jeunet movies such as "Le bunker de la dernière rafale", "Delicatessen" and "La cité des enfants perdus"; he also directed "Dante 01". A « parasite » is this tiny thing that the human being doesn't like much, but it is also an undesirable system in the diffusion of sound... That's how Parazite defines itself. The group made several soundtracks for choreographic shows (Régine Chopinot, Philippe Decouflé...) and had the habit to make performances on stage, giving a great attention to the visual part of them. Coming from several different fields of counter-culture, each member expresses his own imagination.
