About Chocolate Puma
Dutch powerhouse duo Chocolate Puma know how to drop house music, they’ve almost invented the term as the guys started out producing music in the early 90s. Most famous are probably The Good Men and Jark Prongo – just check these names on the web and get nostalgic with oldskool house music!
As they helped shape the original house genre, the duo always kept on producing up-to-date tunes under the name Chocolate Puma. As oldskool house sounds gained popularity again, this resulted in several big releases, including their 2016 hit single ‘Lullaby’ (feat. BISHØP), the Tommie Sunshine collab ’Scrub The Ground’, and collabs with Oliver Heldens, HI-LO, Laidback Luke, Sander van Doorn and their early 2018 hit single ‘Gotta Get Away’.
Most recently the duo teamed up with renowned dance act Carta for a fresh collab to provide the newly launched Tonco Tone label with a high energy second release. ‘Elderly People’ saw the guys deliver a cool tech house groove, enhanced by vintage bleeps and sound effects, followed by a freaky breakdown with in your face vocal samples. What’s clear is the duo’s career has not only accelerated to legendary status over the past 30 years, but shows no signs of slowing down.

Since then, Chateau has been put on the map as a top vocalist and writer in today’s leading music genre.
A songwriter is expected to create music that speaks to the masses, yet whispers to each individual as though it were written specifically for them. Chateau delivers on both.

The song became a Top 10 Dance hit, receiving an array of support and remixes from the likes of Tiesto, Martin Garrix, and Kaskade. One of the song’s biggest moments in global recognition came from Kygo, who played “Gotta Get Away” during his EDC Las Vegas 2018 set.
