Aged 20, he enrolled at the Schola Cantorum de Paris.[10] From there, he was admitted to the Conservatoire National Supérieur de Musique et de Danse de Paris[11] where he studied composition and orchestration. In 2013, he received from the CNSMDP the Prix d’harmonie, and in 2015 the Prix d’écriture XX-XXIème.[12][13]

In 2004, as Gustave Naast, he formed the group Naast with members Jeff Brakha, Nicolas Ballay and Lucas Sensi.[14] His song Mauvais Garçon from their debut album Antichambre was featured in the video game Guitar Hero III: Legends of Rock.[15] In 2008, he disbanded the group to pursue his classical music studies. Later in the year, he composed the music for the animated children's TV series Podcats.

In 2011, his arrangement of the song Iron by Woodkid marked his career debut as an arranger and producer.[3] The arrangement was later sampled by Kendrick Lamar for The Spiteful Chant.
