It is difficult to summarize the career of Patrick Rondat as it is rich in musical encounters. Coming from the hard rock scene of the 80s, he particularly distinguished himself in instrumental metal.

He participates in the compilation Hard-Rock Rendez-Vous  (1989) which made him known to the public. He then began a French tour with Blue Oyster Cult, then the release of his first album confirmed his place as leader of instrumental metal.

He begins a turning point with Rape of the Earth in which the technique remains present but with a musicality occupying a main place. Alongside his solo career, Patrick worked with other artists, such as Jean Michel Jarre in 1991, this encounter opened up new musical horizons for him. 

After new concerts alongside Jean-Michel Jarre, it is time for Patrick to prepare his new solo opus An Ephemeral World, a concept album evoking the culture of the ephemeral. It is considered by many to be his most successful album, it confirms his qualities as an outstanding composer and instrumentalist.

For more than twenty years, Patrick has also devoted himself to teaching, which he considers essential to transmit and share his musical heritage. Thus he animates courses, master-classes in France and abroad. He has also been a regular speaker at the MAI (Music Academy International) for over 15 years.
