Born in Holland, but based in France, the young Leger learned piano and drums, before the world of dance music was properly unveiled to him.

“I have always liked dance music in general when I was young, discovering it on TV with the Lil’ Louis (French Kiss),” he reminisces.

While first cropping up in the late nineties, it has been in this decade that Leger has started to focus on the production angle of his work, with a series of singles starting with 2000’s ‘You Can Hide From Your Beats’.

Since then, he has flirted with everything from funk to techno to house to electro.
 “People think I have switched from one sound to another because of the production I do but as a Dj, I have always played all those styles from house to techno and everything in between.

It’s just a question of mood; if Madonna had to make songs like ‘Holiday’ all the time, she would not be where she is now.

It’s always good to keep your finger on the pulse with what is going at that time without having to sell your soul.”

After the release of a number of singles with various names of planets on them, Leger’s most recent release was unsurprisingly entitled ‘Planets’.

However, he admits that there was no grand scheme to make a wild concept album: “It was very accidental. I collected the tracks for months and months, and then decided to release it as a sort of album/compilation. It seemed to work.”

 ‘Planets’ was released on Leger’s own imprint, Mistakes Music. “It’s for now only for my music; I’m not sure if I would take somebody else music. I use it as a platform for my music so I could have control of what happens to it,” says the label chief.
