La Fleur is not easily put in a box. She‘s the dancer turned DJ, the pharmacist turned remixer, the music-lover turned music-maker. With a commitment to the craft and a keen selector's ear, the Swedish DJ has risen through the ranks of the Stockholm scene and run her own club nights. By 2007 La Fleur was ranked at number 6 in Sweden's Top 100 DJ’s list; the following year she was nominated as Best DJ” at the Scandinavian Music Convention and began hosting the electronic dance music show 'P3 Dans', on Swedish National Radio.
La Fleur took her first forays into the studio in 2008, with her remix of David Ekenbäck’s Nairu on Trunkfunk Records, and in early 2010 she didn’t disappoint when tipped as an artist to watch in. Her solo debut, Flowehead EP, for her own label Power Plant Records, rocketed into charts and playlists worldwide. In early 2011 came Flowerhead Revisited, the remix project hand-picked to launch the inhouse imprint of DJ tastemakers Whatpeopleplay. With support from the likes of Mixmag and Pete Tong, La Fleur is set to continue adding to her already long list of accomplishments, via her uniquely infectious and organic sound. With further landmark releases on Defected Records sublabel Lo:Rise, and her new EP Eavesdropper, for her own Power Plant imprint, La Fleur is undeniably the breakthrough artist to watch in 2012.
