LB aka LABAT shines as the poster child of a generation of DJ-producers doing away with the concept of genre in music. A vibrant representative of a new wave that celebrates club culture in all its diversity, he fuses filtered house, techno, UKG and hard house into euphoric yet wistful dance music Just like his production work, his sets —arm-swinging, sweat-inducing, body-shaking experiences— build a bold bridge between feverish reminiscences of 90s rave culture and the mutant hybridizations of contemporary dance music. Born in Strasbourg, he grew up between France and India, where he spent four years in an English school. He started mixing at the age of 7 after inheriting turntables from his older brother, a hip-hop and scratching aficionado. He was 15 when he played his first nightclubs where he earned €50 per set and showed a marked preference for Detroit and minimal techno, while his mother waited for him outside. At 20, he landed his first international gigs and moved to Lyon, beginning a residency at Café Galerie and dedicating himself fully to DJing. Soon after, he was invited to play at Nuits Sonores, which then led to his first Boiler Room session. He's been on tour ever since!
