Frenchman Martin Solveig has been synonymous with forward-thinking electronic music for over a decade. As the head manager of the Mixture Stereophonic Records, he has established himself as an electro-pop icon. His video for 'Boys & Girls (feat. Dragonette)' - which was shot at Jean-Paul Gaultier's Maison de Couture after a chance meeting with the designer revealed a mutual admiration - went on to amass over three million hits on Youtube. The masterful, Strokes-inspired tracks on Martin's 2008 album 'C'est la Vie' took the airwaves by storm and resulted in the 'C'est la Vie Remixes' album featuring Laidback Luke, the Bloody Beetroots and Fedde Le Grand, as well as weekly radio show called 'C'est La Vie' on stations worldwide. Martin’s current track 'Hello (feat. Dragonette)' was a breakthrough summertime smash and is featured in the first episode of his new 'SMASH' web series, which has been viewed by 4 million people and counting. 'Hello' also introduces Martin's fifth studio album, 'Smash,' due out this year. Meanwhile, he continues to woo audiences around the world at major festivals and is now embarking on a US/Canada SMASH Tour.
