Jupiter

Jupiter is a Parisian electronic duo consisting of Amélie de Bosredon and Quarles, formed in 2009. They emerged as central figures in the second wave of the French Touch scene, gaining initial traction through high-profile remixes for acts like Metronomy and Two Door Cinema Club before signing with the influential Kitsuné label.

Their sound identity is a meticulous reconstruction of 70s disco and 80s synth-pop, utilizing vintage analog gear to achieve a specific 'warmth' that distinguishes them from more aggressive EDM contemporaries. Critically, they are praised for their ability to balance dancefloor utility with pop songwriting craft. Their career arc saw them peak during the early 2010s indie-dance boom, alongside peers like Miami Horror and Breakbot. They occupy a cultural position that bridges the gap between underground club culture and accessible, fashion-forward pop. Their influence is rooted in the revival of 'lazer-disco' aesthetics, emphasizing melody and groove over heavy drops, making them a staple for crate-diggers and casual listeners alike.
