A Utrecht DJ whose 2006 track became an international dance floor staple.
For the full picture, start with "Put Your Hands Up For Detroit" and then listen to "Let Me Think About It" with Ida Corr. Those two tracks tell you most of what you need to know.
When "Put Your Hands Up For Detroit" hit in 2006, it wasn't just another club track, it became a shorthand for a certain kind of peak-hour energy. That song, released under the name Funkerman, announced Le Grand's arrival, and he followed it with the Ida Corr collaboration "Let Me Think About It," which crossed over from European clubs to global radio. His catalog, from the driving "Scared Of Me" to the more recent "Where We Belong," shows a producer who understands how to build a room.
He broke through with "Put Your Hands Up For Detroit" in 2006, then worked with Ida Corr on "Let Me Think About It" the next year. After a 2013 legal issue involving drugs and driving led to a public statement and a pause, he returned to releasing tracks like "The Creeps" and "Where We Belong."
Keep it compact: a lyric you come back to, a live memory, or the part of the catalog you would point someone toward first.
