Biography

Born In
Paris, Île-de-France, France
Author-Composer, Performer and Producer of his tracks, Fhin offers a music that mixes neo-soul (James Blake, Bon Iver), progressive/alternative (Pink Floyd, Radiohead) and electronic (Jon Hopkins, Flume) influences. This syncretism, tinted with a romantic touch and hypnotic grooves is an invitation to dream, a cardinal notion in the conception of his repertoire. Trauma is Fhin's first album and brings together tracks that are to date his most personal, a reflection of his history and his universe.
Fhin spends a happy but physically painful childhood. At the age of 5, he gets surgery for a tumour that blocks his lung and prevents the growth of his spine. After an 11-hour operation, he miraculously emerges without sequelae but spends his next 10 years growing up with a brace.
To get away from these physical constraints, he quickly rises an interest in music. Surrounded by a mother and a grandmother that are both confirmed pianists, he learns to play drums, piano, guitar and mimicks his favorite songs from Pink Floyd, Radiohead in his room with his friends that he records.
As a teenager, he discovers lucid dreams, that state of REM sleep in which he takes control of his visions to become its master. He composes his first tracks and discovers electronic music, that he aprehends by spending hours playing with textures and synthesizers.
He studies sound engineering and shares his first tracks on Soundcloud, the label Délicieuse Records meets him and releases his first EP in 2015, his second in 2017.
15 million listeners later, concerts in several countries and collaborations with Parcels, Polo & Pan, Kraak & Smaak, or Zimmer, Fhin moves his home studio in 2018 at his grandmother’s place (we hear her voice in the introduction of « l Figure It Out ») in the countryside near Versailles. He records his first album « Trauma » released in 2020.
