Robin Schulz started making music in 2007, at the age of 20. At an early age, Schulz developed a love for electronic music beginning to mix and create sets in his adolescence. He was initially inspired by the likes of Richie Hawtin, Sven Väth, MANDY and Booka Shade, incorporating tracks by these artists into his mixes. Between 2007-2009, Schulz became involved with the local party series, known as “Electro Snippets,” helping to develop his own ideas. His initial creations were minimalist affairs, although as his experience developed, he moved towards a deep house/tech house sound. Other influences include Todd Terry, Armand Van Helden, Roger Sanchez and Tiesto.
In creating his music, Schulz often uses FL Studio and his Edirol PCR-300 MIDI keyboard, produced using Ableton Live 8. In 2013, he remixed the track, “Waves,” by Dutch hip hop artist Mr Pobs, which went on to be a huge hit. It reached the top spot of the German, Austrian, Norway, Swedish, Swiss and UK charts, as well as reaching the top ten in seven other countries. It was certified Gold and Platinum in several countries.
He returned in 2014 with another successful remix, of Lilly Wood & The Prick’s track, “Prayer in C,” from their 2010 album, “Invincible Friends.” “Prayer in C” topped the charts in several European countries and was a massive dance-floor hit, reaching number one in Germany, Austria, Denmark, Finland, France, Ireland, as well as several others. His debut album, “Prayer,” was released in September 2014, reaching the top ten in Germany, Austria, Switzerland and in the US Dance Chart.
Being a pop star, many people assume that you have your songs written for you, and can’t play any instruments, but Christophe Mae isn’t your average fabricated pop star. The musician who learned to play the violin at age 5, and taught himself the guitar and harmonica at 16 is an incredibly talented multi-instrumentalist and singer/songwriter. Starting out his professional career as a lead character in a touring musical, Mae was able to get a glimpse of the way the industry worked from the inside.
From the moment he came on stage, he was totally in command of his audience. It was evident that he’d worked in theatre from his confidence on the stage, and the way that he interacted with the audience with such ease and enthusiasm. The show was predominantly to promote Je Veux Du Bonheur, however he did play some of his hit singes from over the years. He opened the show with Dingue, Dingue, Dingue, which got everyone singing and dancing along.
Although French isn’t my first language, I found the songs easy to understand through his great acting and narrative performance. His dancers were great at keeping the audience energised, and it was great when Mae joined in with the dancing too!

This guys house music is deeeeeep. He fits right in with the popular house cadets that have taken over the charts.
And live he is like no other. I'm not slating MK because he has done extremely well to get to where he now is, on every Kiss playlist going...Whereas Robin Schulz really puts 110% into his live work. He keeps the crowd going for a full hour thirty set which is a difficult task. Whats better is that he is playing live on News years eve...I mean NYE! That's crazy! He is working on New years eve in the later hours and the early hours of New Years Day no doubt. That right there is dedication and proves that he loves to perform live, it's the best perk of the job.
If you can get tickets to see him on NYE then bravo my friends, you are in for the best New years of your lives. If not then try your hardest to see him live anywhere else. Listen to his Live @ Mayday 2014 mix on youtube when your getting ready to go out and everyone will be in the best party mood.

Great show with lots of guests in a great venue. Glad I didn't get my tickets via an email from Songkick with a link to Ticketmaster's Tickets Now, where someone was trying to sell tickets for $133.62 each while they were still available from Ticketfly for $33.46 or Red Cat for $30!
