Marc Cerrone

Jean-Marc Cerrone, well known as Marc Cerrone, was born in 1952 in Paris, France. Together with Giorgio Moroder, he set out to become Europe's most important contribution of the Disco-Sound. At age 18, he was Orchestra-Leader at the Club Mediterranee; at 20, he had a very lucrative contract with the french producer Barclay. With the goal that his records meet the current trends, he sold more than 10 million records (until 1979). He had his biggest success in the international Single-Charts in July 1978 in Great Britain with "Super Nature." His first album came with the disco classic "Love in C Minor"- one of the first disco songs to fill a side of a record with an extended version of just one song. "Golden Touch" was his final studio-recorded album of the 70s and another classic dance track was founded with "Je Suis Music." Further albums followed in the 80s, including "Cerrone IX" with "Club Underworld."
