The Chainsmokers

The Chainsmokers, a Grammy-Award winning duo, have evolved from remix artists to global music producers and active tech investors, consistently delivering chart-topping music. After achieving breakthrough success in 2014 with their international top-twenty single ‘#Selfie,’ The Chainsmokers established themselves as Grammy Award-winning global music producers. Initially gaining recognition for their remixes, including Daughter’s ‘Medicine’ which reached number one on HypeMachine in April 2013, their breakthrough track peaked on the Dance/Electronic Songs chart. This momentum led to their signing with Disruptor Records, a joint venture with Sony Music Entertainment, in April 2015.

In 2019, Forbes named them the highest-paid DJs. The duo also scored the soundtrack for the film ‘Words on Bathroom Walls’ in 2020. After a period focused on new material, they released their fourth studio album, ‘So Far So Good,’ in May 2022, notably distributing 5,000 NFTs that gave rights to streaming royalties from the album. Beyond music, Alex Pall and Drew Taggart have significantly ventured into the tech and investment space, co-founding the venture capital firm Mantis VC, which successfully raised $110 million between 2020 and 2021.

The Chainsmokers continued their prolific musical output with their fifth studio album, ‘Summertime Friends,’ released in October 2023. Most recently, they released their third EP, ‘No Hard Feelings,’ in May 2024, continuing to blend indie, pop, dance, and hip-hop music.
