Dimie Cat, (born 28 October 1984) is a French singer and songwriter.
In 2007, she met French producer Franck Rougier. Together, they wrote the two albums of Dimie Cat: Pin Me Up and ZigZag 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 2015, Dimie has disappeared from public view and there is no information on her current status anywhere on the Internet.[ citation needed ]
