About

DJD2B (D2B) began his journey behind the decks in the early 90s, at the dawn of the electronic music movement. His sound was forged by the discovery of pioneers like Larry Heard, Lil Louis, Jeff Mills, DJ Sneak, and Richie Hawtin. Among his major influences, Laurent Garnier holds a special place, serving as a constant source of inspiration in the construction of his musical identity.

The raw techno productions of Detroit and Chicago, combined with the spirit and sonic textures of underground raves, sparked a radical transformation in his musical world—one that has never left him. Born into a family of music lovers and raised on a steady diet of jazz and funk, DJD2B grew up immersed in the family record collection, learning to blend genres as soon as he acquired his first turntables.

Quickly developing a signature repertoire, he began performing at numerous parties and raves across the French capital. He notably left his mark as the resident DJ at the legendary "La Main Jaune" between 1994 and 1995, where he played a key role in introducing audiences to electronic music during a pivotal era for the nascent French scene.

His career was built through countless encounters in the heart of Parisian nightlife, leading him to perform at institutions such as Rex Club, Badaboom, Folie's Pigalle, and Faust. It was in these booths that he honed his trademark style: an instinctive mix, perfectly in sync with the dancefloor's energy, exploring hypnotic soundscapes. Signed to the Berlin-based label Elektrotribe Records, he has also toured across Europe, delivering acclaimed sets in Berlin, London, Lausanne, Ibiza, and Reunion Island.

2016: Launched his own label with the Dub Creators team (Steve Ko & Lucho Misterhands), debuting with the Mongolistic EP. Released the Kampekina EP on La Pince Records.

2017: Contributed the track V3 DUB to the third release on La Pince Records (Lifeblood EP by Dub Creators).

2020: Released the SHIFTER EP, marking the sixth release on the La Pince Records imprint.

2026: Released his first independent tracks, REFLECTED and OLKRS2 , the first fruits of this hardware-driven era, with more to come.
