Dani König

Profile:
Renowned electronic music producer / dj / Dani Koenig is from Zurich, Switzerland. Resident at the Kaufleuten Club. Dani's father was a jazz musician with a huge record collection which seduced Dani and so began his love for music. Dani's influences range from jazz, blues, disco and all sorts of electronic music. He played drums as a kid and then he got his first sampler in 1995. His first 'big' track Disco 3000 was released on Munich D based label Kosmo Records in 1998.

Since then he has gone on to release many records including the stand out Break 4 Love, Whats My Name and Stairs. From 1996 to 2005 Dani released several DJ Mix CDS in Switzerland and completed acclaimed remixes for artists like Moby, Tom Novy and many more. In 2005 he released a best of DJ Mix called 'Fahrenheit 40/25' for Universal Music that looks back at the electronic music that influenced and inspired him.

In 2006 Koenig signed for Bristol UK based label Four:Twenty Recordings and released 'Hard Southamericans' including remixes by 'Global Player' Loco Dice. In 2007 Koenig released the much publicised EP 'Maher Amad' on 3rd Floor Records in Denmark. He is currently hard at work on new tracks and remains heavily in demand as a remixer. 2008 will also include more releases on Four:twenty Recordings, 3rd Floor Records and of course from his label Zurich.

Dani's been lighting up dance floors pursuing his dream of spreading his sublime sound to music lovers worldwide since the 1980's. His djing sets combine the finest in upfront underground dance music there is to offer a blend of techno, minimal and house music.
