Career

The trio is composed of childhood friends Damien Vandesande, Clément Aichelbaum, and Jonathan Illel who worked together on numerous projects before establishing themselves under the moniker dOP, following experimentation with different styles from Hip-Hop to Rock. They began making waves in the Electronic/house circuit with a string of single and EP releases on various labels, including their own (Circus Company), Milnor Modern, Eklo, Supplement Facts and more.

In 2010, they launched their first full length album Greatest Hits, a tongue-in-cheek title for the then-newcomers. [4]
