Klaypex is an electronic trio consisting of Johnny Atar, Alan Notkin and Mark Emmanuel that produces variations of house, complextro, and dubstep. Atar, Notkin, and Emmanuel, currently based in California, released their debut album, Loose Dirt, during the summer of 2011. Ready To Go, their second album, was self-released on April 9, 2012, it peaked at No. 13 on Dance/Electronic Albums in the US, and No. 18 on the Top Heatseekers Billboard chart. Their album Anything Goes was released on August 12, 2014.
Johnny Atar was born on December 1, 1989, to an Israeli Jewish family in Manhattan, New York. His parents worked at the ministry of foreign affairs, and Atar was raised in many different parts of the world. Finally, in 2005, they moved to Toronto, which is where Atar had met Emmanuel in 2006. In 2010, Atar and his family retired to Miami.
Mark Emmanuel was born on December 20, 1989, to a Russian Jewish family in Krasnodar, USSR (presently known as Russia). His family moved to Israel shortly after in 1990. In 2004, Emmanuel and his family moved to Toronto, Canada. Later on, in 2006, Johnny and Mark met, and later formed Klaypex.
Atar and Emmanuel previously lived in Toronto, Ontario, Canada from 2005 to 2011. They became friends in 2006 and began writing together in 2007. They started out with an Alternative Rock project (Pulsar), writing music in Guitar Pro, which later, in 2008, was recorded in GarageBand.
In early 2009, they began taking music production more seriously, and worked to improve Pulsar. During the summer of 2010, Atar and his family moved, forcing Pulsar to split up. For the majority of the winter of 2010, Emmanuel studied independent music production in Toronto while focusing on a pop project with a producer he had met. During that time, Atar focused all of his attention on making tracks and polishing his production skills, writing industrial, R&B, hip hop, electro house, acoustic, and rock music.
