Christian Löffler & Shallou in New York

Christian Löffler is a German electronic musician, producer and visual artist born in Greifswald in 1985. He makes melodic techno and ambient-leaning house, combining electronic rhythms with piano, strings and processed vocals. His catalog includes the albums A Forest, Mare and Lys, while Parallels: Shellac Reworks reinterpreted classical recordings from the Deutsche Grammophon archive. His filmed Cercle performance at Fontaine-de-Vaucluse presented his music as a continuous outdoor electronic set. He later performed at the Philharmonie de Paris in a concert recorded by ARTE, bringing his compositions into a seated concert-hall setting.

Shallou is the electronic-music project launched in 2014 by American producer, singer and songwriter Joe Boston. His atmospheric dance-pop is known through tracks including “You and Me” and “Begin,” the EPs All Becomes Okay and Souls, and the album Magical Thinking. The 2018 Souls Tour took Shallou to clubs and theatres across North America. He moved onto major festival stages the following year, performing at Coachella and Lollapalooza.
