The
Fragma DJ's are brothers Marco and Dirk Dunderstadt. They hail from
the Ruhr area i western Germany, the home of such famus producers like
Hooligan, Marc et Claude, Moguai and Blank & Jones.
The two boys are probably the most promising newcomers of the year, due
to
their massive hit "Toca Me" on Postiva Records.
The pair first came in contact with dance music in 1993. From there they
started to accompany famos DJ's to there gigs. In recognation of there
talent and
enthusiasm, it was only a matter of time before Marco and Dirk were playing
warm up sets.
In 1996, at the age of only 17 and 19 they were offered their first residency
at
the club Old Daddy close to Oberhausen. This residency ensured the pair
were
spotted as very talented DJ's by promoters in West Germany. Bookings in
bigger towns and for larger events followed, including Cologne, Essen,
Düsseldorf etc.
Even the most exclusive German booking agency realized their potential
and
took them onto its roster.
From this point, Marco and Dirk began playing all over Germany, in the
most
famous clubs. This year they played for the first time at the Love Parade
in
Berlin. Bookings all over the world for the year 2000 and even 2001 don't
seem to stop.
They
began producing records in 1997. Their most famos release until this year
was "In Petto" on "No Respect Rec.". However, with their 1999 release "Toca
Me" they topped everyone's expectaitions. This release stayed in the German
dance chart for more than 10 weeks. No-one except Positiva rec. licensed
this
brilliant track for the UK market, yet it almost made top 10 of the official
sales
chart, and has obviously made a massive impact on the dance chart
But with their latest release "Toca's Miracle" they have definitely rised
to
unforgettable producers of the last decade.
