Dj Dag | Tanz in Frankfurt @Adlib Rooftop

DJ Dag began his career as a DJ in the Frankfurt trance scene. He played a significant role in the Sound of Frankfurt, which triggered a trance euphoria from the early 1990s. From 1985 to 1989 he was resident DJ at the Music Hall, then moved to the Dorian Gray in 1988, where he worked until 1993. This was followed by the Omen as his last stop before leaving for the United States in 1997. He also became known through his sets on the radio show hr3 clubnight.

Together with Jam El Mar, he formed the project Dance 2 Trance, whose biggest success was Power of American Natives in 1993, for which Dag received a gold record. Besides Dance 2 Trance, DJ Dag and Jam El Mar had another project: Peyote. Only two songs were released, but I Will Fight No More Forever achieved cult status in the scene.

Dag had another collaboration with the Lunatec label boss and producer Non-Eric. Together they formed the project Crazy Malamute. After the single Welcome to the Dorian Gray, they parted ways in 2000.

In the meantime, DJ Dag emigrated to the USA, where he lived near San Francisco. At the end of the nineties, the family moved back to Germany and in early 2000 to Ibiza. After his divorce, he returned to Germany.

In 2007, he founded the project The Flowmasterz with Peter Laupenmühlen (PeteL.), where they recorded the download album Intriguing Visions and joint performances at Nature One. In 2010, DJ Dag released the single Sunfighter together with Dr Motte. The single What Is a Policeman followed in 2011, and the single A Wayward Angel in 2012.

For several years he has been an extra in various crime productions, starting with the crime series Im Schmerz geboren in 2014.
