DOMi & JD Beck
It is hard to find a more hyped duo in modern jazz fusion.
With an interplay that at times seems almost impossible, the French keyboardist DOMi Louna and the American drummer JD Beck have created a musical universe all of their own.
The duo first attracted attention through their videos, in which they tackled, among other things, John Coltrane’s ‘Giant Steps’ and the music of Madvillain. This soon caught the attention of Anderson .Paak, who took them under his wing and signed them to his own record label, APESHIT, in partnership with the legendary Blue Note Records.
With a distinctive sense of groove and humour, breakneck rhythmic shifts and intricate harmonies, DOMi & JD BECK deliver music that sits somewhere between jazz fusion, hip hop, funk and electronica, with touches of classical music.
On their 2022 debut album, ‘NOT TiGHT’, the duo were joined by guests such as Herbie Hancock, Mac DeMarco, Busta Rhymes and Snoop Dogg. The release was rewarded with two Grammy nominations, including Best New Artist.
In summer 2026 they released their second album, ‘WHO ASKED?’, which is strongly inspired by their collaboration with the Dutch Metropole Orkest. The album was written for a smaller orchestra with strings, woodwind and brass, and the duo use their own vocals for the first time. The result is an album that sits at a crossroads between chamber pop and orchestral jazz, flecked with electronic textures and the duo’s characteristic rhythmic complexity.
Behind the technical acrobatics are two musicians with a rare ability to make the complicated sound playful and effortless. DOMi & JD BECK have made virtuosity something entertaining, unpredictable and deeply personal.
