Michel Bernholc (Paris, 10 July 1941 – Montreuil 5 June 2002)[3] was a French composer, arranger and producer.[1] Using the pseudonym Mike Steïphenson, he wrote and produced the 1971 hit "Burundi Black", which made #31 on the UK Singles Chart[2] and #74 in Australia.[4]

He also wrote the Victoire Scott song "La Licorne D’or", which was covered by the Swedish symphonic metal band Therion on their fifteenth full-length musical album Les Fleurs du Mal.[5]

In 2002, Bernholc committed suicide by shooting himself in the head.[6]
