2012: Formation Formed in December 2012, Klingande was originally a duo consisting of Steinmyller and fellow Frenchman Edgar Catry (born 1990). When they were 10 years old, Catry and Steinmyller met at the Cross School, in northern France. Steinmyller was more interested in the teaching of music theory before he distinguishing himself as a DJ whereas Catry was more interested in piano, which he studied for more than four years. After returning from London to his hometown, Steinmyller had spent time with Catry before discovering their same admiration for deep house producers such as
Bakermat and Nico Push. Klingande was soon formed. It was released via Klingande Music with exclusive license to Ultra Records. An official music video was uploaded by Ultra Records' YouTube channel on 19 March 2015. The song charted in several countries including France, Austria, Australia, Belgium, Germany, Italy, Norway and Switzerland. It was also certified gold by
FIMI. In 2016, he released two singles: "Losing U" featuring Daylight, and "Somewhere New" featuring
M-22 and uncredited vocals from English recording artist
Jodie Connor. An official music video for "Losing U" was uploaded by Ultra Records on 11 March 2016. Klingande's 2017 single "Pumped Up", featuring uncredited vocals from
Lauren "LYON" Malyon, went on to chart in four countries. (The song is a reinterpretation of "
Pumped Up Kicks" by
Foster the People.) Klingande released the single "Ready for Love" with UK singer-songwriter Joe Killington and featuring French harmonica player, Greg Zlap, on 26 April 2019 via Ultra Music. ==Discography==
