DJ Champion

[1] His girlfriend at the time took him to a warehouse show, and soon he began to attend techno Sundays at Les Foufounes Électriques, a Montreal nightclub better known in the 1980s and 90s for booking punk and alternative rock acts.

As part owner of Ben & Max Studios, he was able to make a living producing music for advertising and film, but he also felt "empty".

It included the hit single "No Heaven"—a soulful and bluesy song set against heavy dance beats and noisy guitar riffs.

Inspired by Negro Songs of Protest, recorded by music collector Lawrence Gellert, Béatrice Bonifassi (with whom Morin had previously collaborated on the Les Triplettes de Belleville soundtrack) sings a plaintive tune reminiscent of the work songs sung by the chain gangs of the American South in the late 19th and early 20th centuries.

Morin and Bonifassi worked together again on a version of the 1957 Screamin' Jay Hawkins hit "I Put a Spell on You"; it was used as the theme song of the Kim Nguyen film Truffe, which premiered at the Fantasia Festival in January 2008.

He also recruited Pilou Côté, a young musician from Montreal, to provide vocals, replacing Bonifassi, who had since formed the electronic music project Beast with Jean-Philippe Goncalves.
