It was 2017 when Pierre-Alexandre Busson decided to add a new dimension to his already multi-faceted musical identity. After arriving home from Italy, having taken part in a unique sound installation at the 57th Venice Biennale, the producer felt compelled to begin something new. Breaking away from his otherwise tried and tested methods of making music, the Rheims-born sound craftsman recorded a collection of completely improvised pieces that featured a dark, melancholic edge which strayed from the French electro he was highly regarded for. It was with CHLOÉ’s imprint Lumière Noire, a label that is all about defying classification, that the project found an open ear. And, alas, the DESTIINO project was born.

Pierre is not only affiliated with music for the dancefloors, but is an established and respected producer for movies and television, alongside running his own photography project, with a published photo book and exhibition on his work in Lebanon. The artwork for the album and singles will all be based on a photo from his own collection.

Since those formative recordings, Pierre-Alexandre Busson made his debut on Lumière Noire with two EPs, titled ‘Afsila’ (2021), followed by his debut album titled ‘Destiino’ (2021). After the release is his first teaser single ‘Imagery’ released on the 22nd November, another single from his forthcoming album will drop in February, before the full album titled ‘II’ out on both vinyl and digital release in March 2025.

Driven by a desire to expand and in some way reinvent himself and his sound via his DESTIINO alias, his ‘ii’ album veers between downbeat, ambient house, a dark strain of disco and industrial electronica.
