Almost overnight Madeon became a magnet for the world’s biggest artists – he wrote and produced for Lady Gaga and collaborated with Ellie Goulding, Muse, MNEK and Two Door Cinema Club. His “Pop Culture (live mashup)” video has now amassed almost 28million views on Youtube.His previous project alongside Porter Robinson called ‘Shelter’ toured various countires , performed at some of the biggest festivals.


For Madeon it all started with seeing Daft Punk on TV and some of those bigger, more mainstream records. His goal was to teach himself production until he was 18 so he could do it professionally—particularly since he intentionally flunked out of school and left when he was 16 so he would have no option but to succeed at music. His father was supportive and confident in his son’s decision, his mother anxious and not as understanding. The combination of the two is what took him over the edge.



 Now hailed for cutting edge programming from across the musical spectrum and a healthy affliction with the Novation Launchpad, his name rings with far more resonance than that of an accidental breakout propelled forward by youth and good luck..When Madeon’s “Pop Culture” mash-up video went viral in July 2011, the young French artist was only 17. His stellar follow-up remix of deadmau5’s “Raise Your Weapon” belied his age and proved he was far from a fluke.Today the French mastermind turns 23 years old today!
