Description
"Deep house DJ and producer Etienne de Crecy was a key figure behind the French capital's rise as one of the world's dance music hubs during the 1990s. De Crecy has peddled his talent under several different guises, including Motorbass, La Chatte Rouge, and Super Discount. He has also worked closely with French new wave honoraries Air, Alex Gopher, and Phillipe Zdar. Born in Lyon, de Crecy began his music career in the late '80s with the band Louba in Versailles, on the outskirts of Paris. When the band folded, de Crecy set up shop in the capital and gravitated toward studio work with hip-hop and house, a move that swiftly earned him plenty of street cred. His first major undertaking, deep house project Motorbass, grabbed a cult following soon after its launch in 1991."
