Quentin Dupieux

Quentin Dupieux, born on April 14, 1974, is a multifaceted French artist known for his work as a record producer, disc jockey, filmmaker, and more.

As a filmmaker, Dupieux has directed a series of notable films, including the cult classic Rubber in two thousand ten, followed by Wrong in two thousand twelve, and Wrong Cops in two thousand thirteen.

He has collaborated with various labels, including F Communications, Ed Banger Records, and Brainfeeder, solidifying his status in the music industry.
