Musical career

Domenique Dumont began in 2013 with the creation of the album Comme Ça, released by the Parisian label Antinote in the summer of 2015.[1] This was followed by 2018's Minatures De Auto Rhythm, also on Antinote.[2] Pitchfork described the single 'Le Soleil Dans Le Monde' as "an ultra-low BPM soundscape that reimagines the streets of Paris into a Balearic island".[3]

In 2019, Dumont was invited to compose a soundtrack to the 1930 German silent film Menschen am Sonntag to be performed at the Les Arcs Film Festival in the French Alps that December. This soundtrack, composed of "13 new pieces Dumont’s shimmering synth-pop" will be released by The Leaf Label in November 2020 under the title People On Sunday.[4]

Domenique Dumont has also performed at festivals including Villette Sonique and Le Point Éphémère in Paris, U.Percut in Marseille, Nuits Sonores in Lyon, Sinsal in Spain and Milhões de Festa in Portugal.[1]
