Claptone is a German DJ and producer who specializes in house and tech house genres. He is recognizable by the plague doctor-style golden masks, which serve to intrigue the public as well as keeping his identity hidden. It was widely believed that Claptone is a single person, but after the public realized that Claptone often performed at three venues at once, the rumor started to spread that Claptone was three individuals. [citation needed] Claptone has performed at iconic venues including Hï Ibiza (formally Space), Pacha and Tomorrowland.
