Martin Bresso was born in the southwest of france and moved to the edge of paris at eight. the name was given to him by an older woman he met on a trip to cameroon.

in 2013 he needed a word for a remix he had made of Janet Jackson and typed "future house" into soundcloud. the word stuck to a whole scene. he has spent the years since gently refusing to own it.

I said 'future house' because I wanted to describe it as a type of house music that hadn't been invented yet.

"Promesses" with Kaleem Taylor got to number seven in the uk after Ministry of Sound picked it up. he started Confession in 2015, which is where Malaa came from, and where Dombresky's "Utopia" landed in october 2016, further up this page.

in march 2026 he wiped his instagram and announced he was retiring the priest collar and the church imagery that had defined him for a decade. the first record of whatever comes next was "cry for me" with Poo Bear in may.

The next phase starts now… see you out there
