JEAN NIPON (Techno/House/Club - FR)
A kind of electro Buddy Holly, and living advert for the famous Fred Perry polo shirts, Jean Nipon has dragged his Tim Burton physique to the heart of the Institubes crew since their beginning. Whether under the pseudonym Teamtendo or as part of the Orgasmic duo on the "Eurogirls go to Baltimore" compilations, an improbable mix of Baltimore et Eurodance, this Japan-ophile has stamped his mark on the label's productions. Today at the helm of new hip Parisian nightclub Le Regine, Jean Nipon knows how to propel himself into the ranks of the key players of new wave electro, with a quirkiness notably most evident in his sounds and videos (just cast an eye over his wacky "Lost In Music"). Surrounded by the Institubes crew, you can expect a surprising set, combining hype and wisdom, from this former hard core drummer.
