The producer played a part in dance bangers including The Black Eyed Peas’ I Gotta Feeling and won a Grammy for his musical efforts. Born in Dunkirk, France, Rister – real name Frédéric Riesterer – had collaborated with Guetta since the 00s, and co-wrote several big hits taking the Grammy for hit dance track When Love Takes Over. That happened about 2 weeks ago, I think **CAMJAY77** has him too. 42 more points for both. ---
