Samy started his music career in Lausanne by playing guitar in local rock bands as far back as 1985. He jumped on the computer revolution in 1991 by buying his first computer electronic music production setup. He relocated in San Francisco in 1995 to develop his production skills while working as an engineer in various recording studios in California. CPU was founded in 2001 and represents Samy's perception of modern psy trance
The first singles met an instant success, and led to 2 albums on French label 3D Vision(2002:CPU-Central Processing Unit, 2004:CPU-computer error). Samy then founded his own label (Nutek Records-2006) and went on to release 2 more albums (2006: CPU-Discodelic, 2008:CPU-Eat It)
The fifth album is on the way and expected in December 2010. Samy also works on other project in the minimal tech scene under the name Beatkrush, with a first album released in January 2010 (Beatkrush-Dissolver)
