Claude VonStroke

In 2026, Claude VonStroke continues delivering his brand of quirky and emotional house music. Peak-time frenzy is replaced with patient, low-lit records built for proper underground establishments. Mega-fests are off the calendar. In their place: intimate nights in Berlin, New York, Tokyo. It’s all the same meticulous, slightly twisted production, but now leaner and more underground. For more than a decade, Claude helped shape modern tech house through his A&R work, introducing artists such as Fisher, Eats Everything, Catz n’ Dogz, and Nikki Nair. He built festivals, club institutions, and some of the first large scale streetwear drops in dance music. In 2022, with love and admiration, he sold everything. Unsure of what would come next, Claude returned to creating. Drawn back to what he first fell in love with listening to labels like Playhouse, Pokerflat, and Planet E, he recalibrated, not to repeat the past, but to get back in tune with his original calling. In doing so, he gave himself permission to make wrong turns, mistakes, chase imperfect ideas, and get lost again, the same way he did when he was first discovering who he was as an artist. His new album, Wrong Number is a collection of those mistakes.
