PRESS KIT

Amour Desmond is a DJ and producer based in Paris, France, open to residencies and events internationally. His sound is rooted in Soulful House, Deep House, Disco, Jazz & Soul - influences he carries into his own productions as well.
Trained in Open Format, he adapts seamlessly to any setting, from generalist sets to his own signature sound, without ever losing his artistic direction.
This versatility is built on solid, hands-on experience: four summer seasons in residency in front of a generalist crowd, pursued alongside musicology studies where he developed a genuine command of musical rigor. From this dual training - theoretical and live - came a real stage discipline and a sharp read of the crowd.

NIGHTS VENUES RESIDENCY

“For 4 years, we've hosted live music every week - but we'd never booked a DJ, thinking it wasn't in the spirit of our venue. Amour Desmond reached out to offer his services, and we decided to give it a try... We regretted not having called on him sooner. The musical events and the crowd he was able to draw took on a whole new dimension at our venue. At the start of the season, we had made it a point of honor to diversify the artists throughout the season by only booking each one once; Amour Desmond ended up playing 6 or 7 times with us, and became, almost in spite of ourselves, the official DJ of la Pointe du Castelli. Thank you for your musical taste!"
