Le Babar

Le Babar is one of Belgium’s leading underground house music producers of today. His name is derived from the famous French King Elephant cartoon, and like his title, he is most definitely one of the new Kings of underground house music. His music is frequently tracked and supported by such top djs as Phil Weeks, Mark Farina, Hector Moralez, Craig Hamilton and Dj Mes, to name just a few. The mood and atmosphere of Le Babar’s music encompasses that of a wide variety of the styles he grew up listening to, such as disco, funk, old-school, and 90’s French touch. In 2009, he realized the music he most appreciated was a combination of loops ripped from disco and funk 12” with a big round kick drum underneath, which inspired him to begin producing. Later in 2009, he met Bartosz Brenes, owner of 17:44 label. Soon after, Le Babar released his first track with 17:44, and motivated by the success of this alliance, the two established a new label together: Groovetraxx. A number of tracks have since been released by Groovetraxx , and the label is supported by some of the top music makers in the world. In addition to his own label, Le Babar has released tracks on Flatpack Traxx, Funk Mansion, the Factory, Coyote Cuts and an array of others. From his musical productions to his tasty, jackin’ dj sets, Le Babar is certainly a respected producer not to be missed.
