CHAPTER 01
A producer who learned by making music
The history of Art of Tones begins before that name existed. Ludovic Llorca’s own Mixcloud biography recalls growing up in northern France while experimenting with Commodore 64 and Amiga computers. These early tools were a route into composing and arranging electronic music, not a guarantee of a glamorous career. He went on to release records under his own name and the Llorca project.
The same first-person account says Llorca signed with F-Communications in 1997, followed by EPs and his album Newcomer in 2001. That history is important because it connects his present dance-floor music with the French electronic-label culture of a much earlier era. The later Art of Tones identity represents another creative strand rather than an unrelated person.
CHAPTER 02
Why Art of Tones sounds like a real club
Traxsource dates the beginnings of Art of Tones to a run of club-focused records around 2006, including 20/20 Vision and Room With A View. The catalog expanded through We Play House, DFTD, Local Talk and Lazy Days. Across the releases, deep house grooves meet disco detail: bass lines, tightly arranged drums and harmonically rich material that keeps a dance floor in motion.
The Rainbow Song and Call The Shots remain identifiable titles within that discography. Traxsource also dates the project’s album Unbalanced to December 2018. More recent tracks and remixes provide a continuing record of production activity. The aim here is not to claim every record made the charts, but to point to actual commercial releases fans and selectors can trace.
CHAPTER 03
A fresh 2026 release, not a retrospective-only career
In 2026, the Urdaone EP appeared on Big Love Music, with a later Gledd remix. Beatport also lists Art of Tones among contributors to a 20/20 Vision release and identifies recent disco-house and deep-house material. The distinction between an original recording, remix and compilation appearance matters when discussing a producer’s work: a listing does not always represent a wholly new solo album.
For a modern club audience, that catalog provides a connection between the warm house sound of the earlier 2000s and contemporary DJ sets. The artist’s long-running electronic focus makes the November show a natural fit for The DJ Hangout’s dance-only directory, without padding the profile with unrelated popular music.
CHAPTER 04
The Paris date connects the records to a room
On Saturday, November 7, 2026, House O’Drome marks four years with a party at Le 211 in Paris. The official booking names Art of Tones, Jade Edwards and Nightchou, plus a DiBlob live set and the FunkyRoom family. The advertised overnight window runs from 11 p.m. to 6 a.m., at 27 Galerie de la Villette in the 19th arrondissement.
That confirmed booking is distinct from the music-platform profile: Mixcloud and Traxsource establish the artist and his recordings, while the organizer and event ticket page establish the actual date, lineup and venue. This separation is what allows listeners to move from the story to a trustworthy Show listing and then to a useful venue guide.
