Coming from Stockholm, Sweden, Jungstedt brings an energetic, groovy, and soulful approach to new disco and house music. His musical journey began in the late 90s, inspired by hip-hop culture, when he and his friends bought DJ gear with their summer job savings and started performing at house parties around Stockholm. Those grassroots beginnings evolved into professional gigs and eventually full-scale music production, marking the start of a lifelong passion for sound and creativity.
Jungstedt’s first production experiments took shape using Fruity Loops and Reason, before releasing his debut track Barracus in 2009. After years of refining his craft, he teamed up with Sticky Decks and Disco Tron to form a production alliance focused on new disco. Their covers of classics like Whitney Houston’s How Will I Know and Enoja’s Enjoy Your Life have gained global traction through Tasty Recordings, solidifying their reputation for reimagining timeless hits with a modern disco flair.
Outside the studio, Jungstedt balances his creative life with fitness and family, maintaining a strict daily workout routine and an active lifestyle that includes following his favorite football team, Djurgårdens IF. He emphasizes the importance of discipline, loyalty, and collaboration—both in music and life.
Jungstedt remains dedicated to the artistry of performance, favoring intimate venues where he can connect directly with the crowd. His philosophy on success focuses on passion over profit, valuing creative fulfillment and the joy of sharing music above all else. With his vibrant sound and deep-rooted influences, Jungstedt continues to bring groove, warmth, and positivity to dance floors across Sweden and beyond.
