RFM PODCAST 54: PIEMONT


Listen Later

German duo Piemont has proven itself to be an absolute production powerhouse over the last decade. The pair actually grew up in 90s Hamburg listening to singer songwriters and various rock bands. Always soaking up the use of real instruments and proper arrangements throughout their youths, that genuine musicianship is something that now shines through in Piemont's own contemporary electronic productions. In terms of dance music it was French filter house acts and stadium sized ravers like Daft Punk and Chemical Brothers respectively than first turned them on to the possibilities of house and techno, whilst the more subtle intricacies of top labels like Playhouse and Kompakt also continue to inspire and influence this pair. Made up of long-time friends Frederic and Chris, the pair first decided to hook up and make music together back in 2007 and, since then, have gone on to establish themselves as one of the foremost partnerships in techno and have been releasing Music on acclaimed labels like Monaberry, Lapsus Music, Glasgow Underground, Exploited, Definition Music and Toolroom.
