After asking CHLOÉ to collaborate on the soundtrack of her show STATIC SHOT (2020), MAUD LE PLADEC has called upon the producer and DJ again for COUTING STARS WITH YOU (musiques femmes)". A new ambitious, militant and feminist creation made for the 2021 season of MONTPELLIER DANSE. The dancer and choreographer, accompanied by six dancers, uses dance and song to explore the unspoken, the marginalisation and the representation of women musicians from the Middle Ages to the present day by summoning historical and contemporary figures such as Kassia of Constantinople, Barbara Strozzi, Giovanna Marini and Clara Schuman...

Static Shot is a choreographic project by MAUD LE PLADEC conceived for the dancers of the CCN-Ballet de Lorraine. 

In Static Shot, everything tells the story of the excess of bodies and their relationship to the music of CHLOÉ
and PETE HARDEN. Like a permanent climax, the 24 dancers of the Ballet de Lorraine hold this culminating point together, the energy always having to be at its zenith. The piece, composed of an accumulation of "blocks" of bodies, images and sounds, plays with the codes of dance alternating between gestures from "pop" culture and "learned" culture.

Balani reveals the perfect synthesis of the two artists’ specific musical artistry: the intoxicating sounds of VASSILENA's marimba arranged and shaped by CHLOÉ's electronic production. The electronic beats and sequences which start out understated, wind around several percussion loops with added effects, all gradually escalating to culminate in a wild euphoria.

Performed over a year at events such as Nuits Sonores, Sónar, Mutek (in Montréal and Mexico), The Peacock Society, and festivals such as Marsatac, Musilac and Colors of Ostrava, Endless Revisions’ live performance has evolved with every show. It was out of the question to let these new versions – replayed, recreated and restructured alongside the evolution of the performance’s very architecture – fade away without a trace.

Endless Revisions – CHLOÉ’s first LP in over six years – saw the musician turn a new leaf in her creative journey.

Not content with pushing the boundaries of her creative output with this wider palette of an album, CHLOÉ released Endless Revisions Live, which saw the producer graft the new material and inspiration that came out while playing live on stage back onto the album’s compositions.

The cornerstone track from CHLOÉ’s new album, an adventurously dark landscape dotted by Montreal rock band Suuns’ singer BEN SHEMIE’s vocals, Recall deserved this long-awaited quartet of astounding remixes, which serve as extensions of her latest full-length Endless Revisions’ second single.

While CHLOÉ has long transcended her image as the “DJette” behind legendary club night Pulp, headlining the Rex as well as clubs and festivals throughout Europe, Endless Revisions represents yet another deviation from rigid genre classification, deepening the often-linear perspectives on current music. A rich and multi- faceted work, the artist’s captivating third album drifts from one mystery to the other.

Following her brand-new album Endless Revisions’ stellar first single The Dawn, CHLOÉ goes down an ever more adventurous path with Recall.

Very special guest BEN SHEMIE, vocalist for Montréal’s mesmerizing Suuns, lends his voice to the track’s nebulous atmosphere. «Suuns is one of those rare bands whose music is felt through the body first. It’s a very disorienting feeling,» CHLOÉ observes.

The Dawn is CHLOÉ's inaugural release on her own label Lumière Noire, which she recently set up as a separate entity – after using the name for a collection of releases over the last few months, and of course for her infamous Rex Club night, which has since 2014 become a bit of a club house for Parisian electronic music fans.

Paris La Blanche is the first film score by CHLOÉ THEVENIN, better known by the mononym CHLOÉ. This is far from being her first collaboration with LIDIA LEBER TERKI, however, having contributed music to all of the filmmaker’s shorts, while she returned the favor by directing all of her videos.
