C2C (acronym for Coup 2 Cross ) is a French DJ collective founded in 1998. The group includes 20Syl and Greem from Hocus Pocus , as well as Atom and Pfel from Beat Torrent .
Band history
20Syl, Greem, Atom and Pfel got to know each other during their school days in Nantes through their enthusiasm for skateboarding . They founded C2C in 1998 . At first it was more competitive, so from 2003 to 2006 C2C won the DJ World Championship of the Disco Mix Club four years in a row . In 2006 the band won the ITF World Championship . According to Pfel, the competitions brought them to "a point where [they] wanted to make a real album instead of just working on competitive sets ." Due to the respective band engagements of the individual DJs, work on the album did not begin until 2010. On January 23, 2012 the first EP Down the Road EP was released , followed on September 3, 2012 by the album Tetra (written Tetr4 ).
On October 19, 2012, C2C was announced as one of the winners of the European Border Breakers Award 2013.
