Modjo was a French house music duo formed in Paris in 1999 by producer Romain Tranchart [fr] (born 9 June 1976) and singer Yann Destal [fr] (born Destagnol, 14 July 1978). Their biggest hit, "Lady (Hear Me Tonight)" was released in 2000, was followed by "Chillin'" and "No More Tears", both released in 2001.

Background

Born in Paris, Romain Tranchart moved with his family to Algeria and Mexico before settling in Brazil. There, he began learning the guitar, drawing inspiration from jazz classics.[1] In 1998, influenced by DJ Sneak, Ian Pooley, and Daft Punk, Tranchart released his first single under the name Funk Legacy, titled "What You're Gonna Do, Baby", through Vertigo Records. He then attended the American School of Modern Music in Paris.

Also Parisian, Yann Destagnol learned to play the flute and clarinet as a small child. As he grew older, he became deeply influenced by the Beatles, the Beach Boys, David Bowie, and other pop acts. He started playing drums by emulating them and also learned to play the piano and guitar. He later bought a four-track recording machine and began singing and songwriting. Fascinated more by voices than by charismatic bandleaders, he admired bands such as Aerosmith, the Police, and Queen, and later became a fan of R&B divas.[2]
