Overview

From the vibrant streets of Paris to global club scenes, POPOF has etched his name as a foremost figure in techno and house music. Born in the heart of France, he quickly rose to prominence, driven by a unique sound that was both infectious and sophisticated.

Over the years, POPOF has collaborated with industry giants like Depeche Mode, Chemical Brothers, Moby, BookaShade, Vitalic, Tiga, Maetrik, and Martin Solveig, showcasing his versatility and ability to blend seamlessly with varied artistic approaches.

Further emphasizing his global appeal, tracks like “Do You Want Me” and "Serenity" have secured between 10 to 15 million views on platforms like YouTube.

His affiliations with labels span a broad spectrum. Early collaborations included work with Turbo and Cr2, progressing to renowned platforms like Sven Väth's Cocoon, Kerri Chandler’s Kaoz Theory, Jamie Jones’ Hot Creations, Nicole Moudaber’s Mood, and Adam Beyer’s Truesoul. Such associations speak to his versatility and respect within the industry.

In 2009, POPOF embarked on an entrepreneurial journey, launching Form Music. Over a decade since its inception, Form Music thrives, standing as a beacon for artists around the world. When asked about the curation philosophy behind his label, POPOF emphasizes a liberal and open-minded approach, selecting artists based on quality and resonance with the label's ethos, rather than their fame. This democratized approach to music curation has made Form Music an attractive platform for many.

POPOF's adaptability was further showcased during the Covid-19 era. While the pandemic posed challenges to many in the music industry, he channeled his resources to support the community. Form Music partnered with Clubbing TV to organize livestreams that raised funds for initiatives against Covid-19. These efforts received wide-ranging support, reflecting the communal spirit POPOF fosters.

One of POPOF's notable collaborative projects is Turbulence, developed in partnership with Space 92. This endeavor has left significant footprints on the techno scene, with performances gracing major events from the CRSSD festival in San Diego to Ultra Music Festival stages in Miami, Brazil, and Peru.

In summary, POPOF's journey from Paris to international stages encapsulates a blend of talent, collaboration, and adaptability. As he continues to shape the techno and house music landscape, his legacy remains deeply rooted in his passion for the craft and his ability to connect with audiences worldwide.
