Marcus Füreder, known by his stage name Parov Stelar, is an Austrian musician, producer, and DJ who is widely acclaimed to be the founder of the genre now known as Electro-Swing. A combination of sound clips from instruments and singers make his songs uniquely catchy and an interesting break away from other forms of electronic music.

He is also the head of his own label Etage Noir Recordings, which focuses on Electro-Swing.
