!Yann Tiersen plays these tropes:

* CreatorBacklash: Much more in interviews since 2010 when he presented his new sound, he complains about people don't really care for his music and mistake him for a Parisienne when he in fact hates Paris.

* GenreShift: His albums since ''[[NewSoundAlbum Dust Lane]]'' are strikingly influenced from PostRock.
* PlayingAgainstType: He was sick of being pigeonholed as a soundtrack composer and stereotypical Paris street musician so he blew up his sound ''a lot'', compared to the minimalism of his early work.
