Started his DJ career in 1989 in a club called Lopos Werkstatt in Darmstadt Germany, where he was a resident DJ for 4 years. His predecessor DJ in the club was the producer of Culture beat (Mr Vain) Torsten Fenslau. It was on his label (Abfahrt) he launched his first vinyl.

In the Airport Club (Dorian Gray) in Frankfurt he got to know DJ Talla 2xlc and produced on his labels (Suck Me Plasma & Tetsuo) until 1997. Once in a while he was booked by Talla 2xlc for the legendary Technoclub/Dorian Gray, at that time as famous as the Gatecrasher club in England today.

By playing at the club Paramount Park Germany 4000 square meters close to Frankfurt Germany in 1997 he came in contact with the label Overdose. His first DJ Wag single „Man on the Moon“, released 1998, was an instant hit known to any trance and hard trance producer on this planet, even today. More titles followed, like „Life on Mars“, „The Darkness“, The big bang, Musik Non Stop, The Day The Earth Caught Fire, Getting High

His second project (Yakooza) with Overdose was also very successful, with a mega club burner in many countries including the charts, titled „Cocaine , French Kiss and Lovin U, I wanna Feel“.

2004 and 2005 saw him join Australia’s leading Trance DJ Nervous on national tours through Australia and New Zealand as part of Transmission, Australia’s number 1 over 18’s Trance party.
