Hugo Pierre Leclercq (French pronunciation: [yɡo pjɛʁ ləklɛʁ]; born 30 May 1994), better known by his stage name Madeon (/ˈmædiən/), is a French musician, DJ, songwriter, singer and music producer from Nantes, based in Los Angeles.[2] He initially came to widespread public attention at age 17 through a YouTube video, "Pop Culture", where he performed a mash-up of 39 different popular songs in real-time using a Novation Launchpad. It received millions of hits in its first few days of release.[3] Madeon has cited the Beatles and Daft Punk as his greatest musical influences.[3]

Madeon's first EP, The City, was released in 2012. His debut studio album, Adventure, was released in 2015, supported by a 22-stop North American tour.[4] In 2019, Madeon released his second album, Good Faith, as part of the Good Faith Live tour.

Madeon was ranked at number 105 on DJ Mag's top DJs for 2017.[5] In 2017, he was nominated for two Electronic Music Awards with Porter Robinson for Single of the Year and Live Act of the Year. Good Faith was nominated for a 2021 Best Electronic Album Grammy Award.[6]
