ATB

André Tanneberger — known as ATB — was born in Freiberg, East Germany in 1973 and grew up listening to electronic music smuggled across the Berlin Wall. He started producing in the early 90s and broke through in 1998 with "9 PM (Till I Come)," whose iconic plucked-guitar lead became one of the most-played trance tracks ever and reached #1 in the UK and across Europe. His albums Movin' Melodies (1999), Dedicated (2002), and No Silence (2004) made him one of the genre's most consistent hitmakers, and the seven-album Trilogy run cemented his reputation as a producer who could deliver both club energy and radio-friendly melody. ATB has consistently appeared in DJ Mag's Top 100 since 1999 and continues to release new material — the 2021 reworking "Your Love (9 PM)" with Topic and A7S returned him to global charts twenty-three years after the original.
