“Inpetto create amazing productions with a fantastic balance of beautiful melodies and power for the dancefloor.” - Axwell

When one of dance music’s leading exponents sings your praise people should take note. In a relatively short period of time siblings Marco and Dirk Duderstadt have built a name for themselves that’s propel them to the forefront of the European house movement. Yet unlike many that have sold out to commercialism or believed their own hype, the boys from Dorsten, Germany, have never strayed far from their original blueprint, and it’s that level consistency that has made them a clear favourite amongst their peers, and elevated them to critical acclaim as producers, remixers and DJs. 

“They did a great job on the ‘Everytime We Touch’ remix of my single (with Steve Angelo & Sebastian Ingrosso)… they’re fantastic producers.” - David Guetta 

No strangers to commercial success they also make up two-thirds of the dance act Fragma, who alongside Hardfloor alumni Ramon Zenker, topped just about every club chart in 1999 with their debut release, ‘Toca’s Miracle’. A year later they reached the apex of the coveted UK singles chart with the re-issue, while their album, ‘Toca’, proved they were no one-hit wonders yielding further hits including the top five singles ‘Everytime You Need Me’ and ‘You Are Alive’ with together more than 2 million sold records worldwide. While always keen to keep one-foot in the underground, the brothers also record under the Duderstadt moniker that invariably finds the EDM community salivate over their acclaimed trance and cutting edge electronica productions; Paul Van Dyk, Armin Van Buuren and Ferry Corsten just three of the heavyweight names regularly supporting their music.

“Inpetto and Duderstadt are among the most consistent producers in the progressive and trance genres.” - Above & Beyond

But it’s as Inpetto, the nom de plume of their more progressive orientated house material, that the duo is now fully focusing their attention. It was originally back in 1999, having hit on the Inpetto name (it’s an Italian translation of the Latin in pectoral: ‘in the secret of the heart’) that they recorded their debut, ‘Brahmaputra’, that was subsequently released by No Respect. Although it would take a further eight-years (spent promoting Fragma) before the boys finally returned to issue their sophomore single, ‘Mocking Cliffchat’, on their own Boorsheece Records imprint. 

Post production on a handful of releases the last few years has been widely acclaimed, including remixes for David Guetta with Angello & Ingrosso ‘Everytime We Touch’, Paul Van Dyk ‘For An Angel’, Meck ‘So Strong’, Armin van Buuren ‘If You Should Go’, ATB feat. Cristina Soto ‚One More’, Chuckie & Promiseland feat. Amanda Wilson ‚Breaking Up’, Morgan Page ‚Strange Conditions’ EDX ‚2 Hearts 1 Mind’. Additionally they added a new twist to their own epochal recording, ‘Toca’s Miracle’, in the process helping it return to the UK top 20 singles chart for an impressive third time. 

“Inpetto are absolute leading producers in the EDM scene with their brilliant combination of house beats, the overall progressive feel of the tracks, plus the little trance touch they add to their productions. For us they are showing amazing skills over and over again, absolute DJ champions league!” - Cosmic Gate

Their own productions were releases on Labels like Big & Dirty Records in Holland - ‘The Milky Way’, ’Catwalk’, on Spinnin’: ‚Blizzard’, ‚Game Over’ (Starkillers & Inpetto), Ultra: ‚How Long‘ (Kaskade & Inpetto feat. Late Night Alumni), Cr2 Records ‚No More Serious Faces’, ‚Sinobia‘ (Morgan Page & inpetto), Doorn Records ‚SHHHH!‘, ‚Girls & Boys‘ and Mixmash Records: ‚Learn To Fly‘, Needin‘ U So‘ and ‚Lifting’

Starting 2016 with a remix for one of their favorite artists ‚Galantis’ and a lot new tracks and remixes planned to be released, this year will be the most promising years for the duo so far.

New album 'Rx' out NOW 💊
https://galantis.komi.io

Galantis is the dance music project of Christian Karlsson (aka Bloodshy). RIAA gold-certified debut
album Pharmacy reached No. 1 on the Billboard Dance album chart on the strength of gold-certified
single “Peanut Butter Jelly” and 3x platinum certified smash “Runaway (U &amp; I)” – the latter of which
earned a GRAMMY nomination for “Best Dance Recording” – while 2017’s sophomore album The Aviary
(featuring platinum-certified single “No Money”) saw a top 10 debut in 23 countries. The third Galantis
album, 2020’s Church, featured the chart-topping gold-certified single “Faith” with country music icon
Dolly Parton featuring Mr. Probz, which saw a #1 debut on Billboard’s Dance/Electronic Chart before
quickly reaching #1 on the Dance/Mix Show Airplay Chart where it remained for 5 weeks. Meanwhile,
gold-certified collaborative single “Heartbreak Anthem” with David Guetta &amp; Little Mix proved a global
sensation, spending 10 weeks on the Billboard Global 200 chart and 13 consecutive weeks in the top 10
on the UK Official Chart. Latest album, Rx, is Karlsson’s most deeply personal creation to date – featuring
pop banger “Lighter” with Guetta and 5 Seconds of Summer which landed No.1 on the US Dance Radio
chart. Galantis has received over 7.3 billion cumulative worldwide streams and over 1.9 billion video
views to date.
Karlsson has been at the helm of Galantis since 2009 before officially debuting the project at 2014’s
Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival. His career has spanned across the musical genres of punk-
rock, hip-hop and pop – including work as one half of acclaimed production duo Bloodshy &amp; Avant and
one third of indie pop band Miike Snow. Karlsson’s songwriting/production credits have included the
likes of Madonna, Kylie Minogue, Katy Perry and extensive work with Britney Spears (including “Toxic”
which earned a GRAMMY for “Best Dance Recording” and her widely acclaimed 2007 album Blackout).
As Galantis, he has crafted remixes for the likes of Coldplay, Selena Gomez, Ed Sheeran, Sam Smith &amp;
more. Declared “pop’s mastermind producer” by UPROXX, “eternally effervescent” by Billboard and
“one of the most influential and untamed voices in modern music” by GRAMMY.com, the Swedish-born
artist continues to evolve and push the boundaries of songwriting within the world of dance music and
beyond.
