Biography

Germany (2007 – present)

Coriphaeus is a German electronic-music-project that is best known for creating emotional and dreamlike trance music. Music that lets you dream away and feel like dancing at the same time. However, the sound of coriphaeus is by no means limited to dream- and melodic trance. As Dutch DJ Armin van Buuren already said: “What makes trance work so well is that it doesn’t stick to one style, and can incorporate electro, minimal, whatever it likes.” As a trance artist that gives you the unique possibilty to experiment on new sounds and ideas without scaring fans away.

Producer behind coriphaeus is Jan-Christoph Allermann. Born in Aken, Germany (on February 12th, 1978) he quickly developed a passion for all sorts of music and started collecting records at a very young age. His destiny was sealed when he received a classical guitar as a gift from one of his uncles on his tenth birthday. Over the following years, he learned guitar on his own and started to compose his own music. At the age of 14 he discovered the piano, which he was taught for several years. After his Abitur (diploma from German secondary school qualifying for university admission or matriculation) in 1997 at the German School of Brussels he moved to Saarbrücken (Germany) where he started to study law. At the same time his passion for music remained unbroken and he spent lots of time composing new songs on his much beloved Kurzweil K-2000 Synthesizer. Around 2002 though, he started to suffer from Tinnitus and for a couple of months his life came to a halt. In the end it was mostly music that helped him to recover from the Tinnitus-Syndrome.

    Good job! Nice atmosphere, quality sounds, fine concept, but a bit empty (to my mind). Just keep producing, and find the missing part for your masterpiece! I'm awaiting for your new trackz. As for me: 1. I Walk This Earth Alone 2. Sky Lantern (Radio Edit) 3. 30 Years (Original Mix) 4. Nostalgia (Extended Mix) 5. Sunset (Loneliness Mix)
