Kungs - Friday, November 14 2025

– French Hitmaker & Global Dance Sensation | From “This Girl” to Worldwide Stardom Valentin Brunel, better known as Kungs (pronounced “Koongs”), burst onto the global dance scene with his sun-soaked rework of “This Girl”, a remix that topped charts in over 45 countries and helped define the sound of summer 2016. Hailing from the south of France and rooted in a childhood of rock ’n’ roll and rhythm (his first instrument was a djembe), Kungs quickly evolved from bedroom remixer to platinum-selling artist. With his debut album Layers going multi-platinum and remixes for giants like Axwell / Ingrosso, Kungs proved he’s more than a one-hit wonder. Awards like “DJ of the Year” at the NRJ Awards and “Best Electro Album” at Les Victoires de la Musique cemented his status as a leading figure in French electronic music. From Coachella and Tomorrowland to Paris Fashion Week with Paul Smith, Kungs’ flair for crossover success spans music, fashion, and youth culture. Fresh-faced but experienced beyond his years, he continues to craft dancefloor-ready hits with universal appeal.
