Jupiter
Jupiter are based in Paris. However, it's in London that the boy/girl duo met; on an empty dancefloor, cleared by a slightly too retro hit. Their common passion for retro hits and glitter inspired them to create music halfway between Thank God It's Friday and Purple Rain.
They first gained attention following official remixes for Anoraak, Metronomy or Two Door Cinema Club. Their first two EPs, "Starlighter" and "Vox Populi" got a lot of attention from the blogosphere and allowed them to be featured on a number of releases by the French label Kitsuné, including their most recent single "Saké". The band is currently working on their debut album.
