Position Parallèle is a French electronic music project that is a side endeavor of Geoffroy D. and Pierre Pi, best known for their work with the martial industrial/neofolk band Dernière Volonté. Since their formation, Position Parallèle has been exploring the territories of minimal synth and electropop, wrapping up the poignant lyrics with addictively stark and melodic synth lines, clearly differentiating their sound from the neoclassical and dark folk elements of their main project. This divergence allows the duo to convey a distinct brand of coldwave-inspired, yet modern and danceable, music that resonates with the contemporary scene while nodding to the traditions of French chanson.

Their recent work includes "La Dialectique du calbute sale," which serves as an original podcast soundtrack, showcasing the duo's versatility in composing atmospheric yet rhythmically compelling pieces that can accompany narrative forms. "Mélodies en Sous-Sols" and "En Garde À Vue" are further testaments to their craft of delivering synth-driven tracks blended with evocative vocals that carry the weight of storytelling. Throughout their albums, Position Parallèle maintains a sleek production that remains true to the minimalistic core, engaging listeners with their introspective and often romantic take on synthesizer music.
