Joachim Garraud has been a firm favourite of DJsounds for many years, with us right from the start. We have republished some of his amazing clips that he produced as part of his gigantic podcast.We finally pinned the original space invader down and got him to spill the beans. In this clip he tells us why he has chosen space invaders as his personal theme and about his unique new DVJ show.Joachim Garraud was born in Nantes in September 1968 and was a classically trained musician before he decided to get involved in the club scene and follow his passion, at the opposite end of the musical scale, for the electronic scene.He began to DJ in Paris in 1989, just as the rave scene was beginning to kick off.
