Dimitri from Paris is a French music producer and DJ of Turkish origin. His musical influences are rooted in 1970s funk and disco sounds that spawned contemporary house music, as well as original soundtracks from 1950s and 1960s cult movies such as Breakfast at Tiffanys, La Dolce Vita and The Party, which were sampled in his album Sacrebleu. Dimitri fused these sounds with electro and block party hip hop he discovered in the 1980s.
Contrary to his musical pseudonym, Dimitri was born not in Paris but in Istanbul, Turkey. Born in Turkey to Rm parents , Dimitri grew up in France where he discovered DJing at home, using whatever he could find to cut and paste samples from disco hits heard on the radio, blending them together to make tapes. This early experimentation helped him launch his DJ career.
