The mastermind behind Karmaloft Chris Le Blanc was born in a small town in the south-west of Germany and began playing classical piano at the age of seven.
He studied music and sound engineering in Duesseldorf and, after receiving his diploma in 1989, he moved to Munich where he soon became one of the most sought-after programmers and arrangers in Germany.

In 1993 he joined the highly successful production team responsible for Haddaway's first two albums and this collaboration resulted in world-wide hits such as “What is Love?”, “Life”, “Rock my Heart” and “Fly Away”.

Together with producer-engineer Gary Jones, Chris did remixes for Pet Shop Boys, Thalia, Carlos Ponce, Bananarama and Bizarre Inc. As well as this, they produced for Thea Austin, the former singer of Snap, and Kami & Purple Schulz, artists who topped the charts in the late 90's.

Always keen to expand his production repertoire and skills, he started writing film and television scores for German Television.

Fascinated by Ibiza's multi-cultural ambience and by the island's spiritual dimension, Chris and his family moved there in 2002. Ibiza also offered global musical influences and a vital club scene which Chris found inspiring for his artistic and professional development. He embarked on many projects such as; Chris Le Blanc, Sunyata Project, Ocean Deep (with Ingmar Hansch from Moving Sounds) and Miss Luna (resident DJ at Nassau Beach Club, Ibiza). Songs produced under these names have been included on several compilation albums which include; Café del Mar, Sony Erotic Lounge, Sony Dream Dance, Km5, Claude Challe, Klassic Lounge, Café Copacabana, Bambuddha Grove, Ministry of Sound, and Islands.

Miss Luna was born in Düsseldorf, Germany, and grew up with all this funky sound of the Seventies. Since childhood she dreamed of producing her own songs.

In the late eighties, she started playing music, first for her fellow students in smoke-filled cellars with a mix of Funk, Rock and World Music, then soon after she became a residency DJ in two of the largest club in the area.

In 1999 Miss Luna fell in love with Ibiza, and two years later she stayed there to live and work in the centre of electronic music. Now she produces house and lounge music in her own studio together with an international team of producers and musicians.

Since 2002 she works together with producer Chris Le Blanc. Many of their productions were published on compilations such as Ministry of Sound, KM5, Erotic Lounge etc.

As a DJ Miss Luna presents deep house sounds and loves to create a special ambiance for the particular place and for the people listening to her music. This may be lounge music for sunset or a really groovy dance set for later on.

Residencies in Ibiza: Nassau Beach Club, Bombay Lounge.
