DOOGOO D
ELECTRO
Trained as a percussionist, Yvan Talbot aka Doogoo D (the native son) goes to Africa at the age of 19 to explore Manding music.
He learns from the greatest percussion masters of West Africa and becomes a specialist of Djembé and Bolon, atypical instruments which will influence his style.
In 2003, he moves towards electronic music : it is a revelation, an evidence. He finds the strength and energy echoing the power of the African musics that he masters.
He creates a hybrid world, a powerful and narrative electronic sound, cherished by many renowned Hip-Hop & Contemporary dance choreographers (Co Chute Libre, Co Rêvolution, Co Malka, Co Accrorap, Co Julie Dossavi, Co Faso Danse Théâtre…).
As a Hip-Hop/Electronica producer, Doogoo D works, among others, with rap artist KillASon.
In 2009, he founds the group EL FASSA and releases his debut album No Black No White Just Voodoo : a mix of African, Latin and electro sounds. IN 2014 he crates TRIBOLOGY, a music collective of electronic producers.
In 2018, Doogoo D decides to make a solo EP, a fully electronic-based project entitled Caryotype. He invites several guests : men and women of different worlds and styles who give a particular color and story to each track.
His music is plural, powerful, organic, rhythmic, dancing, enriched by all his experiences and the people he met.
