LANGE (UK)

Ranked 31 in the world (2009 DJ Mag Top 100 Poll), Lange is recognised as one of the most influential dance artists of the past decade. A DJ who has remained at the forefront of the scene throughout his career and a producer that continues to push all boundaries.

After an exhausting list of achievements, counting among them 20 UK top 40s, featuring on a film soundtrack, and remixing mainstream artists such as the Pet Shop Boys, Lange remains one of the leading EDM producers. His modern day anthem “Out of the Sky” catapulted to the top of the trance charts, making him one of the top selling trance artists in 2008 and it still remains a ‘never fails’ track for djs and clubbers alike.

2009 has perhaps been one of his most prolific in recent times with a host of successful singles and remixes for the likes of Ferry Corsten and Above & Beyond. His summer co-write with Andy Moor, ‘Stadium Four’, received strong support from the Dj elite and debuted in Armin Van Buuren’s 2009 Essential Mix. ‘Let It All Out’ is his follow up to ‘Out of the Sky’ with vocalist Sarah Howells; appearing week after week on both Armin’s ASOT and Judge Jules’ Radio 1 show as well as receiving across the board support from many others, it looks set to enjoy the success of its precursor. His latest release in 2009 is his retake of the massive classic, ‘Happiness Happening’. His original remix entered the UK sales charts at no.18 in 1999 and is already topping the trance charts in 2009.

2008 saw Lange launch his Intercity radio show, growing quickly in popularity, it has already become one of the staple shows for trance fans despite its short life, owing its success to its charismatic host and notoriety for showcasing the most exciting new releases in trance and related genres. The show launched as a podcast in summer 2009 alongside ‘Intercity: Summer 2009’, the first in a continuing, and already highly acclaimed, compilation series. Also in 2009, Lange relaunched his Lange Recordings label which features new rising talent in the scene alongside his own work, and over the years has become well known for its high quality, successful releases.

Alongside Lange’s exceptional and successful studio work, he is a prolific international DJ with weekly jaunts around the world, making appearances for some of the best club brands in the world including Godskitchen, Gatecrasher and Ministry Of Sound as well as performing for prestigious festivals such as such as Global Gathering, Summadayze, Creamfields, and the Zurich Street Parade. His eclectic, stimulating and driving sets pull influences from across the dance music spectrum from, trance, progressive, techno and electro; he is an exciting and lively performer that keeps the crowd buzzing for more.

Lange is one name in trance that has continued to reinvent himself to take on the evolving dance scene and show any inspiring new comer how to be an industry leader through pure talent alone. After climbing the Top 100 Dj Poll for the 5th year in a row and 2010 set to see the launch of his second artist album, he looks only set to dominate further.
