Graham Mushnik

Axel Oliveres a.k.a. Graham Mushnik, born in France in 1985, started producing his own music in 2005. His first single, “La Première Cavalcade”, came out the following year on B-Soul Records – low-fi drum loops and frenetic jazzy organs. Soon after this, Graham completed an 8-track LP, “A Distant Wildlife”, more produced and accomplished. By 2007 Graham had founded Catapulte Records, along with Luke Warmcop and Antonin Voyant, and the LP was released. All 3 moved to London and started a prolific musical collaboration. Based in London for 8 years, Graham got involved in various projects : writing and producing music for short films and live performances, but mostly playing live shows throughout Europe and recording over 30 albums and singles, as Graham Mushnik and with his bands (Guess What, l'Orchestre du Montplaisant, Malphino, Slow Slushy Boys, Derya Yıldırım & Grup Simsek to name a few), as well as running the Catapulte label. Following the release of his 2nd LP, "On the Phone with...", Graham formed the Graham Mushnik Orchestra with fellow musicians - firstly as a three-piece, and from 2014 on as an electric sextet called Group Martini. Graham is now based in Saint-Etienne, France. His 3rd LP "Peeping Through The Porthole" came out in 2020, and more recently "Hey Dostum, çak!" in collaboration with Derya Yıldırım, in 2023. https://grahammushnikmusic.blogspot.com/
