Dupieux is most famous for his electro track "Flat Beat", which became a hit all across Europe in 1999 for being featured in a series of Levi's jeans TV advertisements. Dupieux also directed the ad, which featured a yellow puppet named Flat Eric nodding his head to the sound of the track while riding in a pickup truck. Flat Eric later appeared in the music video for "Flat Beat".
Dupieux released his first EP's "#1" and "M-Seq" on F Communications in 1997. After "Flat Beat", Oizo released his first album in 1999, Analog Worms Attack, featuring a single of the same name.
In 2005, Oizo released his second album entitled Moustache (Half a Scissor).
In 2006 and 2007, Oizo produced remixes for Kavinsky, Jamelia, Cassius, Scissor Sisters and, most recently, Calvin Harris.
Dupieux's first feature film, Steak, was released in France on June 20th, 2007. He also made the soundtrack in cooperation with Gaspard Augé from Justice.
In 2007, Mr. Oizo's Transexual EP was released on Ed Banger Records. The EP features a re-working of the 1979 disco track "Do It At The Disco" by Gary's Gang. The track appeared on Oizo's MySpace page in 2006 under the title Patrick122.
In 2008 Mr. Oizo released his third album, Lambs Anger, containing solid, hard, over-compressed, in-your-face dance tracks. The Positif EP was released in November, which featured remixes from Mr. Flash and LFO (Low Frequency Oscillation)
In March of 2009 Mr. Oizo released the Pourriture EP, featuring a remix of Erreur Jean by Arveene and Misk as well as some "radical reworks" by Oizo himself. A remix of the track "Z" was released as a Beatport exclusive. Also included in the download was a short film by Oizo, titled "Making Lamb's Anger".
In November of 2011, Mr. Oizo followed up Lambs Anger with Stade 2, a new release for Ed Banger Records. Slowly releasing the album through club nights and Twitter, Stade 2 further refines the style that he displayed on Lambs Anger, providing tracks for headphones and the dance floor.
In January of 2012 he started a music project with Boys Noize called Handbraekes.
In April of 2012 Mr. Oizo released an EP called Stade 3, which is available for free on the Internet. He also directed the Stade 3 Teaser where Flat Eric is starring again.
While in his time in America in November 2014, he produced a new album under the Brainfeeder Records called The Church.
He would return with Ed Banger Records in September of 2016 to make his sixth studio album All Wet featuring a pixelated Flat Eric as the cover art. This album features with artists like Tetanos, Peaches, Boys Noize, Phra, Skrillex, Siriusmo, Mocky, and Charli XCX.

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
今日は穏やかに 毎日忙しさで疲労困憊
彩る morning カタチ様々ね
うたた寝をしたり お出かけをしたり
好きなように過ごして 心満たして
そんな中で lovin' you 当たり前に be with you
どうか続くといいな あなたに降り注ぐ愛の全て
輝く table
今日は緩やかに 毎日バタバタして とっ散らかり
四季折々 カタチ様々ね
喧嘩をしたり 笑いあったり
離れない繋がり 篤と感じて
そんな中で lovin' you 結局は I need you
めくるめく時代の中 花を育ててる
どうかどうか守ってみたいんだ
あなたに降り注ぐ日々の飛礫
あなたに降り注ぐ愛の全て
人だからそりゃダメにもなるんだ
タメになるね 簡単なんかじゃないけど
今日はせっかくの holiday さ
難しいことは置いといてさ
そんな中で lovin' you 当たり前に be with you
めくるめく時代の中 種を植えてみる

どんな時も lovin' you 当たり前に I need you
めくるめく時代の中 花を育ててる
どうか枯れないように 注ぎ続けるんだ愛の全て
あなたにあげるこの僕の全て
The lyrics of Mr. Oizo's song "Lovin'" depict a sense of calmness and contentment amidst the hustle and bustle of everyday life. The opening lines describe a shimmering curtain and a peaceful day that is overshadowed by exhaustion caused by the busyness of life. The mornings are described as vibrant and diverse, with people taking naps or going out and doing things they love, in order to fill their hearts. In the midst of this, the chorus emphasizes the naturalness of loving someone and being with them, planting a seed of love in the dazzling era they are living in and hoping that it will continue to blossom and shower love upon the person they care for.
The second verse continues the theme of different shapes and seasons, with days being chaotic and messy. Despite the ups and downs, there is a strong bond that is felt, with fights and laughter intertwined, creating a sense of connection that is difficult to break. The lyrics again express the singer's need for the person they love, nurturing a flower in the ever-changing era, and their desire to protect and shield them from the hardships and challenges of life.
