Julien Rimailho - Music Composer

About me

Composer born in 1985, I have been transposing my ideas into music for around fifteen years.


At the beginning of the 2000s, in my teenage bedroom, I drew on my many influences from the time to create the music I wanted to hear, using in my small home studio all the instruments that came within reach. my curious hands (guitar, drums, violin, keyboards, banjo, mandolin, flute, etc...), with no other objective than creation for its own sake. I am learning to use computer music, a wonderful tool that allows solitary people like me to create without constraints or limits. From this period my first solo musical project was born: Gray Honey, a sort of folk laboratory.

Towards the end of the 2000s, I became professional in advertising orders. I am improving in this particular exercise, and the very short creation times in the field teach me to channel my ideas in a stimulating way. There I learned the writing and production codes of most musical registers, from big band to mainstream pop, including electronica or the soundtrack of Spaghetti Westerns. I compose the music for numerous campaigns for radio, television and cinema, in France and internationally.

In parallel with advertising, I am perfecting my skills in composing for large symphonic ensembles, working regularly for documentaries and short films. At the end of 2019, I composed the score for the musical tale "Eliazar, the rare bird", in the form of a sextet performed by the musicians of the Radio France philharmonic orchestra.

Finally, I have collaborated regularly since 2011 with the singer and author Violette Libault. A joint EP appeared in 2012 (You Are The Strangest Animal), a solo album in 2014 (Mile Ends). I arranged his solo EP in 2015 (Else's).

2019 marks an artistic turning point in our collaboration within the duo Casque D'Or, sung in French and with more electronic sounds. The project's first EP was released in 2020, followed by a collection of B-sides (Bis) in 2021 and a second EP III in 2022.
