About College
Born under the lights of Nantes, France, on July 2, 1979, David Grellier, also known by his stage moniker Mitch Silver, is a luminary in the electronic music scene, pioneering the Synthwave movement with his projects College and Valerie. Grellier’s musical odyssey began in 2004 with the formation of the electroclash band Sexy Sushi, where he demonstrated his avant-garde approach to electronic music. His journey took a significant turn in 2005 with the inception of College, a project that encapsulates the nostalgic essence of 80s synth music, intertwining it with contemporary electronic beats. In 2007, Grellier expanded his musical landscape by founding Valerie, a collective aimed at exploring and promoting the Synthwave genre. This platform became a crucible for like-minded artists, fostering a community that celebrates the retro-futuristic vibes of the 80s. Grellier’s unique ability to blend the warmth of vintage synthesizers with modern electronic music has not only defined his career but also shaped the Synthwave movement. David Grellier’s influence extends beyond his music; through his artistic vision, he has cultivated a space where nostalgia and futurism converge, creating an immersive experience for listeners. His projects are not just a nod to the past but a bridge to the future of electronic music, where the echoes of Synthwave continue to resonate. Grellier’s work is a testament to the enduring appeal of the 80s aesthetic, proving that it transcends time and continues to inspire a new generation of musicians and fans alike. |
