Biografía de BreakBot

Breakbot, real name Thibaut Berland, was born on 5 October, 1981. He is a music producer and DJ of French origin.

As of May 2009, Breakbot has been signed to Ed Banger Records, for whom he has produced a whole array of musical masterpieces. His studio album ‘By Your Side’ was released in September 2012 and made it all the way to number 19 on the charts in France. Additionally, he has produced six EPs as of 2014, from his debut ‘Happy Rabbit’ to his 2014 hit ‘You Should Know’ featuring Ruckazoid. Some of his most popular singles from his album include ‘Baby I’m Yours’, ‘Fantasy’ and ‘One Out of Two’.

Breakbot is most famous in mainstream music for his remixes, particularly his remix of ‘Baby I’m Yours’ featuring Irfane which was a summer smash hit in his native country of France. The music video that accompanied this single was nominated for "Best budget pop/dance/urban video" and "Best animation in a video" for the Music Video Awards on October 12, 2010 that took place in the UK.

His music style is a blend of French house, electro house, disco house, nu-disco, electro-funk, boogie and synthpop: an interesting and eclectic mix indeed!

Breakbot’s remix of Pnau's song "Baby" was used as part of the soundtrack in Gran Turismo 5, a racing video game, along with his song"Penelope Pitstop".

Críticas en vivo

Breakbot (the stage name Thibaut Berland goes by) is of the French school of Electro House that gave us Sebastian, Justice, and Mr. Oizo among others (I’m sure Daft Punk must have at some point, somehow been a part of the family tree too). There is a dose of heavy, sweaty, Disco Funk that runs through all Breakbot’s music, and after hearing some of his mixes, in particular the supremely silky and loved-up ‘Lazy Sunday Selecta’, I figured he must play a pretty mean set as a DJ. My chance to be proved right finally came at an Ed Banger night (the label was celebrating it’s 10th anniversary). First off, something I really like about Breakbot live is that he does a lot of manipulating and mashing up with the samples and beats in the moment, so there’s more of a live element to it than a straightforward DJ set. This might explain why (some say) there were a few lulls in his set, but on the flip side, I think it makes him more interesting to watch as a performer, with his Jesus-at-the-decks look. ‘Baby I’m Yours’, probably his best-known tune and a slice of sunny, feel-good funky disco, was the high watermark of an irresistible wave of euphoria.
