Born in January 1984, this guy is the same age as me! He became interested in electronic music very early, and was recording demos in his bedroom by 1999. He went from posting his 'electroclash' music on MySpace to signing with a multinational record label almost instantaneously. In 2006, an Artists & Reportoire delegate heard his music, contacted him, and immediately signed him to a major label.
His debut album, entitled 'I Created Disco' was released the following year and featured two top-10 hits. Soon enough, he was remixing works by Jamiroquai, All Saints, and the Brazilian new rave sensation, CSS. A collaboration between him and Dizzee Rascal hit #1 in the U.K. He continues to pump out #1 hits, with songs like "I'm Not Alone" and "Acceptable in the 80's".
He already has multiple number 1 hits, and is becoming more and more prominent every year. His songs exemplify colorful disco and electronic influences with a modern r&b styling. His vocal work features very soothing, yet powerful tonalities with excellent vocal harmonies and melodic phrasing.
