Pnau is an Australian electro-pop duo from Sydney .

Band history

In the mid-1990s, school friends Nick Littlemore and Peter Mayes joined forces and followed the acid house and trance wave under the name Pnau . With their debut album Sambanova they had their first success in the Australian charts in 2000. They even received an ARIA Award for the best dance release of the year . With the second release Again they could not build on it three years later, but with the album Pnau they returned to the road to success in 2007 and had their only solo single hit with the release Baby .

In addition to the Pnau project , both musicians are also working with other artists. Nick Littlemore, for example, founded the internationally successful pop duo Empire of the Sun with singer Luke Steele . Another successful collaboration between the two Pnau musicians and the English pop star Elton John led to the album Good Morning to the Night in 2012 , in which the Australians sampled and remixed Elton John songs. It reached number one on the UK charts.

The following year, the two French DJs Faul & Wad Ad used their hit single Baby and turned it into the song changes with a saxophone insert . They were particularly successful in German-speaking countries and even reached the top of the chart in Germany in December 2013 .
