Chris Gruber and Nils Nuernberg are a bright and talented production and DJ duo hailing from Hamburg, North Germany. In little over a year, these two close friends and all-round music lovers have quickly built a name for themselves with their straight forward, modern approach to house music.
A dedicated obsession with house music fused the pair, and armed with Chris' long-time DJ and record collecting history, and Nils' passionate studio flair, it was a perfect unison! Strictly aimed at the dancefloor, their sound flirts between percussive, organic and classic house elements, encapsulated by smooth, room filling chord stabs and essential, perfect bouncing grooves.
In 2008, their first year of work, the pair produced highly received, innovative releases for labels like Diynamic (their debut 'Floating Clouds in Summer'), 8Bit ('Fractions EP' inc. the hit 'Laugh Lines'), Was Not Was ('C'Mon Dance EP'), and Bloop ('Traffic', inc. Agnes Remix), with the anthemic, addictive groove of 'Laugh Lines' on 8Bit really bringing them into the spotlight. Furthermore, they've put out a growing collection of outstanding remixes for the likes of Steve Bug's infamous Dessous label (Tracks and The City - Dessous Classics), Fresh Fish, and more.. And so the boys have already begun to make their mark on this blossoming scene; proof that they really mean business! The charismatic duo are keen to express their love for this inspiring music form; on the one hand its all about 'expressing so much, using very few elements... yet transmitting powerful emotions to the dance floor...' On the other, they are fascinated by the energy and sense of companionship that a club atmosphere brings, with its open-minded, positivity and the special feeling of unity with your fellow dancers. They suggest their motto might be; 'with each other, rather than against'. A fitting statement when your foremost aim is to bring people together with the joy of dance.
Now as they jump head first into 2009, they prepare for more exciting releases on 8Bit, and Bloop Recordings, with remixes scheduled for Liebe*Detail Spezial, Swiss trend-setters Drumpoet Community & UK label Leftroom, amongst others. With an expanding DJ schedule that will see them performing across Europe as the summer months approach, and a debut and in-demand Live show in the making, surely bigger things within reach for Gruber & Nuernberg.
