Breakbot

Electronic music is it necessarily without soul, without words, without a face? No, of course. And one of the finest examples to counter these stereotypes associated with artists of the era of almost thirty machines is a long-haired, Thibaut Berland aka Breakbot. Like many musicians of the 2000s is that Thibaut on Myspace turns his first compositions. “From hip-hop with a computer instrumental, samples and midi keyboard,” remembers Thibaut. While continuing his work as a graphic director, he started making remixes for Justice, late of the pier, or metronomy Fatlip. In 2007, the first single siglé Breakbot “Happy Rabbit”, 500 copies, released on the British label Moshi Moshi Records. He started DJing in clubs in 2008 and is particularly a great tour of Australia alongside Van She and Pnau.

2009 attracted by the Breakbot remix of Metronomy, Pedro Winter Thibaut offers a deal on his label Ed Banger. “I liked the team, humanly and musically. I’ve always been a fan of Daft Punk, then work with the former manager of Daft Punk and Justice present, I thought it was great. I said yes immediately. ” the first single from this collaboration gives an idea of the result: “Baby I’m Yours” is cool, pop, irresistible. The visual adorning the maxi is a strange character wearing blue shorts. The song is performed by Irfane, singer Outlines met through his friend Krazy Baldhead. The atmosphere is electronic, dance, with a sound that refers to the golden age of funk melody, that groups like Chic or BB & Q Band.
