EP Review: Christopher Dixit - L.B.B.M.

Summer vibes are all around us, as speakers thump during afternoon BBQs and the sky stays light until we’re drunk. It’s all about the positive mood, something that Parisian electronic artist Christopher Dixit uses to create. “Little Black Beard’s Mood” is his new EP that just came out on Nowadays Records in mid-July. The timing couldn’t be better for this journey through electronica. 

Let’s get to the details: 

Released: July 17, 2015

Genres: electronic, future beat

Tracks: 5

Who would like this EP?

Anticonformist electro heads who enjoy instrumental and sampled mixes of different cultures and styles. 

Our thoughts:

The envelope keeps getting pushed in the world of electronic music. DIXIT takes inspiration from things like Japanese culture and video games, applies a deep understanding of beatmaking, and weaves stories throughout the five tracks on this EP. 

The styling is wide, meaning this music can pair well in many different sorts of playlists. Our favorite track is probably “Mini Synthèse” for its clever use of sampling to produce the feel of different genres, all in one song! 

Never stop jamming.

Hey guys, I’m Louis, soon to be 21, currently living in Angers, France doing my studies in graphic design but I’m originally from Cholet (not too far away). Ohno is my musical alter-ego, a secret passion that caused me to start producing sounds about a year ago. Then I started meeting people in the Angers music scene, like Spectateur who pushed me to continue improving with his help, I also developed connections to the hip-hop collective Label Collection, and with Pepso Stavinsky, Remington group, Jay Bentham and another electro beat maker from Angers: Wander.
