From the Promoter

French electronic music producer KLINGANDE makes his Calgary debut – featuring live flute and saxophone performances- on October 24, 2014 at The Republik, hot on the breakthrough success of his tropical house hit single “Jubel.”

Before taking over at #1 in Germany for five consecutive weeks, and establishing itself as a huge international smash with subsequent chart-topping placements in 15 countries, “Jubel” seized the top of Hype Machine twice, received 30 million combined views on YouTube and another 6 million plays on Soundcloud. It has become the most Shazamed track across Europe.

Both Klingande and 'Jubel' are named after Swedish words due to the duo's love of the nation's house music: 'Jubel' meaning joy, and Klingande taken fron the word for sounding.

Formed in December of last year, Klingande consisted of childhood friends Cédric and Edgar, two 23-year-olds from Croix in northern France who formed the duo after being united by their love of electronic artists such as Klangkarussell, Bakermat and Nico Pusch. Since January 2014 Edgar decided to spend time on his own projects, still spending time in studio to create musical ideas for Klingande.

Cédric – now touring solo under the Klingande moniker – has spent much of the year playing throughout Germany, Sweden, France, Belgium, Switzerland, Ireland, Austria, Romania and the Netherlands. His new single to be released in mainland Europe was 'Punga', another track which features their distinctive house-meets-saxophone sound and also earned a huge online following.

Klingade is currently enjoying another success, taking over the UK charts with his remix of Sigma’s “Changing,” featuring vocals by Paloma Faith.
