Taki 183 is the debut album by French musician DyE. It was released on June 13, 2011 by Tigersushi Records. After the release of his debut extended play, Imperator, in 2009, DyE started work on a debut album. Musically influenced by electropop and electronic rock music, the album takes partial influence from techno music and dubstep. The title of the album stemmed from the popularity of "TAKI 183", a tag short for the American graffiti artist, Demetaki.

Contents

Taki 183 received generally positive reviews from critics upon release, with most favorably comparing the work to several artists, including James Holden, Erol Alkan, and DJ Mehdi. "Fantasy" received favorable reviews although opinions on the music video were divided.

Two singles were released from the album. "Cristal d'Acier", the album's lead single, was released in 2010 and wasn't promoted heavily. The album's second single, "Fantasy", was released in early 2011 and received significant attention after the release of a controversial music video. However, neither of the songs performed well and neglected to peak on any significant record charts.
