HISTORY of a Ping-Pong-producer duo
Vodka, ass-shaking nights and travels - Chi-Thien Nguyen aka Chopstick and John Muder aka Johnjon, wanna see the world! John quotes an article about Tiefschwarz that he once read: “We just wanna see the world and what better way is there than seeing it as a DJ.” We totally agreed with that and it is our driving force till this day.

HISTORY of a Ping-Pong-producer duo
Vodka, ass-shaking nights and travels - Chi-Thien Nguyen aka Chopstick and John Muder aka Johnjon, wanna see the world! John quotes an article about Tiefschwarz that he once read: “We just wanna see the world and what better way is there than seeing it as a DJ.” We totally agreed with that and it is our driving force till this day.
How it all began…
Before the joint journey of german born John and the vietnamese/canadian Thien can begin, they fi rst had to get to know each other. The fi rst meeting takes place in Hamburg to which Thien arrives 3 hours late and fi nds Johns fi rst steps in production rather amusing than inspiring. But at the point where John puts on a few vinyls to show his DJ-sound the fi rst common ground on style was set! The year 2002 has come and Chopstick &
Johnjon become an inseparable duo. Their relationship started to grow and they spend their fi rst hours in the studio. The EP “Supermodel” is in the box and is soon picked up by the label Voidcom, which is also the
home of artists such as Kevin Saunderson and Alexander Kowalski. But before they can continue their promising work, a change of scenery was necessary. New destination: Berlin (who would’ve thought... duh!)
From the new headquarter in Germany’s capital, which by the way is also the home of “Mückenschwarm”-producer and Stil Vor Talent label owner Oliver Koletzki, the two do remixes for Deep Dish, Heiko Laux, Dirt Crew, Robyn and many more. The whole thing becomes pretty successful..
So the journey begins. Chopstick & Johnjon plug dozens of pins into the globe. Japan, Canada, Australia and Brazil are the countries where the PING-PONG DJs leave their unforgettable traces. The aim of each gig: vodka in the veins, keep every ass moving the whole night and back to the plane!
One thing leads to another!
