No, it's not hipster Jesus. Well... maybe.

Breakbot is just another French electronic artist signed to Ed Banger Records (Ed Rec)  that you may not have heard of just yet.  `Breakbot has also released on labels Because Music and Moshi Moshi Records.


Write up from Moshi Moshi:
'Emerging electro wunderkid Breakbot crafts party tunes. Big ones. Following in the footsteps of French electro duo Justice. ParisianThibaut Berland a.k.a. Breakbot has mastered the art of melting together all the best elements of dance, electro and hip hop 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. He chose neither one clear path, nor another. Possessing a degree in computer graphics, and having created his first animation short film co-directed with two friends, Thibaut now makes music videos, commercials and such. By day. By night however, he cooks up choice cut electronic music, experimenting with beats, layers, keyboards, vocals, and Daft Punk-esque get-yo-funk-on basslines.'






If you haven't heard about the producer from the award winning video made for his jazzy hit, 'Baby I'm yours', then you need to watch it and then ketchup on the past year of internet.  Also released last month, video for 'Fantasy', shot in NY, which I'm not too crazy about.
