Active since the late '80s, by the following decade Laurent Garnier had become one of the best all-around DJs in the world, able to span classic deep house and Detroit techno, the harder side of acid/trance, and surprisingly jazzy tracks as well. He added production work to his schedule in the early '90s, and recorded several brilliant LPs across multiple decades that displayed a similar penchant for diversity. 30 (1997) and Unreasonable Behaviour (2000) contained some of his biggest club hits, while he delved into jazz, dub, downtempo, and other sounds on releases like The Cloud Making Machine (2005) and Tales of a Kleptomaniac (2009). Garnier later focused on soundtrack work, and collaborated with psychedelic group the Limiñanas on the 2021 full-length De Película. He continued releasing club singles all the while, and issued his most dancefloor-oriented album, 33 Tours et Puis S'en Vont, in 2023.
