Very active in the field of film scoring, he wrote many of them for feature films – Hava Aney Dey and Sunrise, Partho Sen Gupta, The Stranger and In loco Parentis, Neasa Ni Chanain, documentary, tv program and fictions, advertising (BMW, Murano…) 

Eryck has been commissioned to compose music for Radio-France, Gmem, Ina-Grm, Grame, French Government.

His last solo album ILUMEN (cd) has been classified in many international charts including Boomkat, Denshinote (2015 Best album 100 – Japan) and received in 2021 a“coup de coeur ” of the Charles Cros Academy.

Soleil Fixe is one of the pieces of Ring Zone, cycle of compositions for synthesizer solo, with and without the addition of the electric guitar. In this cycle, Eryck is trying to achieve an electronic lyricism by mixing noises and notes, disorder and melody. Very brutal noisy sounds can cohabit with overlaying sequences. “Even if the piece is written, I try to preserve liberty during the play. I never forget that the pleasures often come from errors and “inattendu“.
