Music career

In 2007, she met French producer Franck Rougier. Together, they wrote the two albums of Dimie Cat: Pin Me Up and ZigZag (Dimie Cat album) and created their own record label Dream'up. Dimie's jazzy vocal style is a mix of 40s-50s jazz, combined with modern beats and sounds. Adopting a sample based approach, their usual method is for Franck Rougier to produce the tracks at home and then Dimie Cat writes the words.

Since 2014, Dimie has disappeared from public view and there is no information on her current status anywhere on the internet.

Pin Me Up (2009)

Dimie Cat's debut album Pin Me Up (released 22 July 2009), pays a tribute to the pin-up girls and vamps of the Hollywood's Golden Age and to the Swing Era. Two singles are taken from this first opus: Post-it and Glam, that appears on several electro swing compilations.[1]

ZigZag (2012)

Her follow-up album ZigZag is released digitally 1 November 2012. First single is untitled Ping Pong and a second music video was released in February on track La voiture. One of the songs, Woody Woody, pays a tribute to American director Woody Allen through his film The Curse of the Jade Scorpion. This album insists on the dixieland and electro swing touch, with tracks such as Pasta e Basta, V.E.S.P.A or AAA (Triple A).

ZigZag is promoted in Japan and Korea by Japanese label Rambling Records.

Once Upon A Dream (2014)

Once Upon A Dream is a Disney themes covers album released 23 April 2014 for the Asian market. Ordered by Japanese label Rambling Records,[2] this special album confirms the presence of Dimie Cat in the territory and charted Top 3 of iTunes Japan Jazz Chart from the first week of its release.

gollark: Who *designed* that? Why did people agree to it?
