Breakbot, born Thibaut Berland, is a Parisian producer who emerged as a leading force in the "French Touch" genre of electronic music. He achieved significant success in the industry in 2010 with his hit track "Baby I'm Yours", featuring vocals from Irfane. Breakbot's music is recognized for his mix of funk, disco, and French house style, delivering a unique sound platform that not only grabs the listener's attention but also sets the ambiance with a retro-modern touch.
In addition to the radio success, the heart of Breakbot's magic lies in his distinctive music videos, especially kinetic collaborations with the directorial duo AB/CD/CD. Notably, the music video for "Baby, I'm Yours" stands out as iconic. In it, Breakbot paired with Ruckazoid, a dynamic American vocalist and producer known for his chameleon voice and his talented mimicry of scratching without a turntable. The video captures audiences with over 2000 watercolor paintings, painstakingly hand-drawn to create a vivid moving scene. And here's a lesser-known fact: the video features not the typical French croissant, but a watercolor pizza, creating a playful twist, testament to Breakbot's cheeky sense of fun. Another of Breakbot's popular music videos, "Fantasy," perches the viewer on a station platform, a front-row seat to a surrealistic band performance.
Breakbot's genius, coupled with Ruckazoid's vocals, his knack for fun animation and his meticulous attention to detail, made him an indispensable gem in the music industry. These idiosyncrasies have colored modern electronic music videos, often emulated but never perfectly replicated.
