Breakbot

Ed Banger

Thibaut Berland a.k.a. Breakbot released his first single “Summer Party”/“Happy Rabbit” on May 21st 2007 on Moshi Moshi Records. He crafts party tunes. Big ones. Parisian Thibaut has mastered the art of melting together all the best elements of dance, electro and funk with skill and precision. And a laptop. Born in 1981, Thibaut was immersed in the sights and sounds of the subsequent decade, and remained appropriately pulled between his love of animation graphics/comics, and music. Possessing a degree in computer graphics, he created his first animation short film co-directed with two friends (“overtime”). He then directed several tv animation commercials and music videos. He helped So-Me on the design of the Justice debut album cover. Thibaut now cooks up choice cut electronic music, experimenting with beats, layers, keyboards, vocals, and Daft Punk-esque get-yo-funk-on basslines. Whilst Breakbot’s remix of Justice’s “Let There Be Light” appears on their Japanese “Waters of Nazareth” 12”, his double A side with Moshi Moshi is his debut solo release.

Since then he made remixes for Pacific!, DatA, Late of the Pier, Metronomy, Pnau, Fatlip, Digitalism, Van She and many more. He toured with Pnau and Van She in Australia from coast to coast in april 2008 for 17 gigs. He played in many parties over Europe (Paris, Lyon, Berlin, London, Brighton, Birmingham, Glasgow, Manchester, Amsterdam, Helsinki, Berlin, Milan..). Breakbot is now working on his upcoming EP.
