Recording took place in Paris in the spring of 1995. Tiersen subsequently assembled the album La Valse des monstres out of some tracks he had worked on in 1993, together with other compositions from the following months, and divided the track listing into two sections, each one named after the material it had been inspired by: ' Freaks' (comprising the first ten tracks) and ' Le Tambourin de Soie' (comprising the remaining seven). Some of these tracks were written for the theatrical adaptation of Freaks, a 1932 American horror film by Tod Browning, while others were inspired by Yukio Mishima's 1955 The Damask Drum and also served as an accompaniment for its representation. The accordion was a keyboard so it was easy. I couldn't play a brass instrument – I tried but I was really bad – I couldn't play the flute, and To further expand his sound palette he brought in the accordion and the melodica which would act as wind instruments in his pieces, along with the toy piano and the harpsichord, this one playing the role of the guitar.

He therefore had his violin fixed and started using it, alongside the piano, to compose his music. After hours spent listening to old records, in search for orchestral strings to sample, Tiersen decided to record them himself. In the early 1990s the musician was experimenting with synths and samplers, looping samples from existing works to create his original compositions. Tiersen began writing the material that would form the basis for his first studio album around 1993. This eclectic upbringing would play an influence in his mature musical production. Over time, all his bandmates left to pursue other interests and Tiersen continued on his own. Influenced by punk rock, when he was thirteen, Tiersen broke his violin, bought an electric guitar and started to play in rock bands. The thriving musical scene in Rennes provided a background for Tiersen's musical development.
