TheFatRat hails from Germany, but you could call the circuits and server spaces of the web his true home. The artist’s sound, which Billboard Magazine has coined as “Wildly energetic and genre-bending electro” has lead him to become one of the most top-charting acts in dance music, having had multiple singles remain in the iTunes top50 for over a year. TheFatRat’s music has also become theme music for popular brands like the top-grossing video game Rocket League and Coca-Cola. Most-importantly, his open-minded approach to lift copyright restrictions on his music has led to TheFatRat’s music being used in over 1,500,000+ unique you-tube videos from a range of different content creators. This collectively accounts for over a billion unique views on the platform where he is featured and that explains why TheFatRat boasts one of the largest followings and most engaging fan-bases on the web for an artist in his genre… accounting for roughly 1,200,000+ followers on You-Tube, 750,000+ on Spotify, and high engagement rates with roughly 190,000,000 video views on his own page and 150,000,000 streams… 2017 marks an exciting new chapter for TheFatRat as he’s returned to touring and brings a new live show to fans worldwide. The once-strictly independent artist has recently signed an international deal with Universal Music Group that places him on the legendary dance label Casablanca/Republic Records in the USA and PM:AM records in the United Kingdom.
