In The Present Tense
Started as a 50th-year pilgrimage to master every note from OK Computer to A Moon Shaped Pool. This is a living archive of that process—learning to play, learning to sing, and learning to stay present through the music that defined the last three decades. Currently a solo exploration; eventually a collective. Stay tuned!

About
My name is Romain. I have been a student of this music since 1997. It began with the jagged edges of OK Computer and evolved into a lifelong obsession with the textures of Amnesiac, the rhythm of In Rainbows, and the stillness of A Moon Shaped Pool.For my 50th year, I am embarking on a personal pilgrimage: to learn, sing, and record the entire Radiohead discography. This is a project about technical mastery, but more importantly, it is about presence.This journey is shared with the three most important people in my life: my two sons, Mateo and Noah, and my wife, Liz Bertrand. They are the audience and the inspiration.
