The Worst Beatle

Monsieur Bird, aka Mr. Oizo, is X parts genius, Y parts shit.

The X and Y variables vary. But the recipe remains the same.

This is true for each track, each album, each remix, and even each tweet.

@oizo3000: Best of 2009 : 1-some of my stuff. 2- MJ death. 3- world trade center terrorist attack. 4- dj mehdi's coming out. 5- hitler's blog.

@oizo3000: Jhfufxhuffigdsdvofffifehhi

@oizo3000: just saw DAVID GUETTA selling crack on sunset bvld.

@oizo3000: 'fag and fat' is a better name than 'digitalism', don't you think?

LOL, right?

The face of experimental French house, Mr. Oizo is definitely the most interesting DJ / producer signed to Ed Banger. While it seems everyone is tired of the in-your-face Justice sound, Mr. Oizo never really made "bangers". He's always made weird, off-kilter house.

While his original tracks are mostly destroyed miniatures, and quite frankly are to this listener more annoying than they are enjoyable, many of his remixes are funky as hell.

Below are my favorite Mr. Oizo tracks.
