Junge Junge, the ,multi million streamed DJ and Producer Duo entered Book Kings.
“We were always bumping into each other at random events,” they say—the duo decided to spend some time in the studio together in late 2012, only to discover a shared language and intention: “to excite people” with their music. Soon they began touring as Grolle & Noack before releasing 2013’s “Why” as part of the Schneeweiss II compilation on Oliver Koletzki’s Stil vor Talent imprint—albeit as Grolle & Noack rather than Junge Junge.
The first official Junge Junge release landed in April 2015. Titled “Beautiful Girl,” and stemming from a spontaneous jam session at 2014’s Helene Beach Festival, the single landed on Get Physical Music. Pairing a feel-good bassline the track served as a perfect example of the deeply melodic, pop-orientated sound.
“Our songs automatically become melancholic, harmonic, and somehow ‘poppy,’” they say, describing their style as “pop with other influences paired with electronic Dance Music.
”Having heard “Beautiful Girl” played in a local beach bar on holiday in Ibiza, the Managing Director of Universal Music Sweden offered the duo a record deal on the spot. The first product of this arrangement was 2016’s “Run Run Run” single, followed soon there after with the Beautiful Girl EP which featured three original productions alongside the licensed title track.“Run Run Run” went double platinum in Sweden and has over 57 million streams on Spotify; while “Beautiful” went gold in the same territory. Away from original productions, Junge Junge are also regular remixers—and can count Glashaus, Charlie Puth, James Arthur, Alle Farben, Tiggi Hawke, Frida, Aka Aka and Avicii as artists they’ve reworked.
As DJs, the duo also continue to impress—although their house sound is distanced some what from much of their studio output. “If we’re DJing we’ll play house and club music,” they say. “This is what has inspired both of us to play out music as DJs.” Following a busy few years of touring—during which they played Pacha Ibiza, Magnetic Festival, HYTE, Bootshaus, Ritter Butzke, Melt, Sea You, WET Open Air, Kiesgrube to name just a few—the duo’s tour schedule continues back in 2022 will see them on the dance floor.
