David Le Borgne,[1] better known as BreZ, is a French beatboxer and looper.
History[]
BreZ is originally from Brittany, France. He grew up in Ireland, moved to Sint Maarten when he was 14, and moved back to France five years later.
BreZ started beatboxing in 2007 at 17 years old after watching videos of Joseph Poolpo, TyTe, and ZeDe.[2] He discovered looping in 2009 after watching videos of Dub FX.[3] He started looping with an RC-505 in 2015 but "only took [looping] seriously in early 2018".[4]
