Biography

Piemont is a project initiated by the Hamburg based producers Frederic Möring-Sack and Christian de Jonquieres, whose numerous releases and remixes under their alias Phunklarique & Dejonka have already gained a huge fan base over the past few years. The significant output for their latest releases has been the own record labels Hammarskjold and Fingerfoodmusic, which they have been managing successfully since late 2005. Under Piemont they create music suitable for peak time as well as after hours and listening comfort.The long awaited debut EP ("Ice Instinct") by Piemont was released by "Hi Freaks" - the very own imprint of producer/dj-team "Goldfish & der Dulz" - in January 2007 and gained support from many top jocks, including Thomas Schumacher and Oliver Huntemann. Moreover "Ice Instinct" was featured on the momentous DJ Mag cover CD. The acclaimed german label "Gedankensport" released their second EP named "Nightshift", including a fabulous remix by Berlins minimal superiors MyMy. Their following single entitled "Carbonat" appeared on the cologne based label My best friend (MBF) in april, and can be considered as their breakthrough. Beeing charted and droped by top class Djs such as Carl Cox, Deep Dish, Oliver Koletzki, Monika Kruse, Umek and King Roc, Carbonat quikly gained great public interest and entered the German Club Charts (DCC) at position 13 in may 2007! Up to now Carbonat has been licensed to two Ministry of Sound compilations. The follow-up-EP named "Sympathetic" meanwhile arrived on MBF in September 2007, which immediately reached position 11 of the DCC. After a short summer break Piemont released two new EP's in November 2007: "Quantum Leap" on "Hi Freaks" and "Ignition Spark" on "Gedankensport". By now the two guys have finished the production of their forthcoming MBF-release named "Bastille", which should hit the stores in february 2008. Several EP's - including an album production - and a bunch of remixes are in the pipeline for release in 2008. Beside their wide studio activities they have been busy building their own label "Suchtreflex", which is intended to be a creative platform for their own and friends productions. Moreover, Frederic and Christian are going to establish Piemont as a liveact (via Traum-Booking).
