Débruit, the French afro beat surrealist and groove scientist who mixes elements from hip-hop and dance music with samples, field recordings and other sound fragments from Senegal, Congo, Cairo and Paris. Forever a student, always with his head buried in the new sounds – traditional or contemporary – in search of a way to merge them with its own highly analog rhythmicity, a sort cut-and-paste dub with dark spring reverbs and primitive rhythm boxes. Débruits genre defying groovyness has made him a sought-after remixer for Lee Scratch Perry, Zero7 and many others.
