Amon Adonai Santos de Araújo Tobin (born February 7, 1972), known as Amon Tobin, is a Brazilian musician, DJ, and producer of electronic music.[1] He is best known for his use of sampling. He has released eight major studio albums since 1996 under the London-based Ninja Tune record label.
In 2005, he created the musical score to Ubisoft's critically acclaimed and successful video game Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell: Chaos Theory as well as Sucker Punch's game Infamous. He is also noted for his entirely field-recorded album Foley Room, released in 2007. His music has been used in numerous major motion pictures including The Italian Job and 21. Tobin has created songs for several independent films, including the 2006 Hungarian film Taxidermia. A selection of his tracks were also featured in the 2005 anime, IGPX. His latest album is 2011's ISAM.
Jupiter are based in Paris. However, it's in London that the boy/girl duo met; on an empty dancefloor, cleared by a slightly too retro hit. Their common passion for retro hits and glitter inspired them to create music halfway between Thank God It's Friday and Purple Rain.
They first gained attention following official remixes for Anoraak, Metronomy or Two Door Cinema Club. Their first two EPs, "Starlighter" and "Vox Populi" got a lot of attention from the blogosphere and allowed them to be featured on a number of releases by the French label Kitsuné, including their most recent single "Saké". The band is currently working on their debut album.
