Stubbleman is the ambient electronic project of British composer and producer Pascal Gabriel, known for his influential role in the UK’s late-'80s electronic scene (e.g., S’Express, Bomb The Bass). After decades of producing for diverse artists (from Wire to Kylie Minogue), Gabriel returned to his experimental roots with Stubbleman, blending modular synthesis, found sounds, and field recordings, often enhanced by live piano.

His debut album, Mountains and Plains (2019), was inspired by a cross-country trip across the U.S., creating a cinematic, ambient soundscape merging post-rock, electronica, and neoclassical music.

Stubbleman’s second album, 1:46:43 – The Ventoux Trilogy, takes a more conceptual approach, inspired by his ascent of Mont Ventoux—an iconic mountain in the Tour de France. The album's foundation is built from four modular synthesizer sequences, generated using real-time cycling data (heart rate, speed, power, slope). These sequences evolve together to form an immersive and dynamic musical structure.

Structured in three movements across eighteen pieces, the album mirrors the emotional and physical journey of the climb—from rugged terrain to the haunting summit, evoking themes of solitude, effort, beauty, and mortality (notably referencing cyclist Tom Simpson’s fatal 1967 ascent).

Premiered live in London, The Ventoux Trilogy is more than music about cycling—it's a meditative reflection on the human spirit, the immensity of nature, and the intimate struggle between despair and hope.
