Concept
Numéro (band)
Summary
Numéro# is a French Canadian electropop duo consisting of Jérôme Rocipon and Pierre Crube.
Jérôme Rocipon is a native of Bordeaux, France and played as a guitarist in various rock groups in the country with additional interests in hip hop. He started to correspond with Pierre Crube, a composer of experimental electronic music from Montreal in the primarily Francophone province of Quebec in Canada. The two exchanged their compositions on the Internet. From this exchange, the project Numéro# was born, and their compositions were put online on MySpace.
Their debut album, L'Idéologie des stars, was released in 2006 on the Montreal-based independent label Saboteur Musique. The duo performed heavily, including notably opening up for TTC. A single, "Hit pop", started to receive play on commercial top 40 radio, which is unusual for an independent group.
The band's second single, "Chewing-Gum Fraise", is their biggest hit in Canada, mostly Quebec. The song's video was the #2 video of the year on MusiquePlus.
The rap group Omnikrom appeared on the album L'Idéologie des stars in one of the versions of their single "Chewing-gum fraise". In the spring of 2007, Numéro# returned the favour and collaborated with Omnikrom on their first album, Trop Banane!, appearing on the tracks "Ghetto Hype" and "Bouger Bouger".
