Born in Istanbul but grown up in Paris, Dimitri started out by DJ-ing at the French station Radio 7, before moving on to Skyrock and finally to Radio NRJ, Europe’s largest FM radio network, in 1986. There, he introduced the first ever house music show to be broadcast in France, while simultaneously producing under the direction of sound designer Michel Gaubert, runway soundtracks for fashion houses such as Chanel, Jean-Paul Gaultier, Hermès and Yves Saint-Laurent. In 1996 Dimitri gained worldwide recognition with the release of his first full album, Sacrebleu: a blend of diverse influences including jazz, original film soundtracks (such as Breakfast at Tiffany’s, La Dolce Vita and The Party), samba, and organic house, Sacrebleu sold 300,000 copies worldwide and was named Album of the Year by UK’s Mixmag magazine.
His career in radio led to his being asked to rework tracks for various artists, among them Björk, New Order, and the Brand New Heavies.
