GALLEON is a french electro-house-pop and
electronicorock project born in 2000 in Marseilles by
PHILIPPE LAURENT (synths/production, born in Marseilles)
and MICHEL (D.J./production, born in Marseilles). The
both of us call GILLES FAHY (voice) who has worked in New
York with TONY SHIMKIN (producer of MADONNA's "EROTICA")
to join them. Their name reffers to galleons, the
spanish sea armada from 16th and 18th century. PHILIPPE,
MICHEL and GILLES have a smash hit with "SO, I
BEGIN" (#8 in France, #17 in Switzerland, #36 in
the U.K., #30 in the Netherlands, #37 in Germany, #40 in
Austria and #60 in Belgium) that sold more than 400 000
copies in Europe. GALLEON remixes for DEEP FOREST. Split in
2003.
