Challenge aka Tim Paris & Pete Herbert

Aka: Tim Paris // Pete Herbert

Challenge are Pete Herbert & Tim Paris and we couldn't be happier to have them together on Kompakt's K2 imprint!

Pete & Tim met late 90’s as they were both resident at the ‘Cake&Milk’ summer Parties in Paris at the Batofar. After Tim moved to London in 2006 they teamed up again to play in the East London’s unique Balearic parties !

Pete has released many records under different moniker such as Reverso 68, Frontera, LSB, Bakazou, Optimus and Cuica.

After building up a dj reputation in ¨parisian underground circles, doing parties with Jef K, Chloé, Alexkid and Ivan Smagghe, Tim Paris teamed up with Jef K to help him develop the now infamous Crack & Speed label. Working the dancefloor but also developing his skills in the studio, Tim Paris had his first breakthrough with the remix of a rock tune called “Future Now” that had been picked up by Ralph Lawson’s 2020 Vision label and become one of the biggest underground tunes of 2004. From there Tim Paris didn’t stop but continued to release quality tracks and remixes. Now based in London, Tim Paris started in 2005 his own label, ‘Marketing Music’ and is considered by both DJs and press as one to watch in a (very) near future.
