Born in the Düsseldorf (Germany) in 1967, it wasn’t long before Jürgen developed a deep interest in music. At the tender age of five he made his first recording on his father’s reel-to-reel and acquired his first drum kit at the age of seven. When he was twelve he received his first synthesizer; the Roland Jupiter 6, which he later connected, MIDI style, to a drum machine and C64. At fourteen he received his first booking for the graduation party at his school, after which he began earning more and more bookings and by the time he'd turned eighteen he was DJing professionally. As fate would have it, 1993 was the year he met up with Marc et Claude and DJ Bossi, with whom he worked on his first professional recording. One of their subsequent productions was to become the very first release on the label Le Petit Prince/Alphabet City (Germany). Jürgen's eventual breakthrough came in 1994 with the release of his most successful club track to date, 'Epidemic', under the alias of Exit EEE. Nine years on and having been re-released numerous times, this track is still named as an inspiration and measuring pole for many producers. A short while later Jürgen acquired his interest in 'acid' music and together with Plank made their debut release on Important Records with 'Acid War'. 1994 was also the year he became the A&R of Important Records, Germany´s leading acid-imprint at that time. Consequently, he formed Acrid Abeyance alongside Plank. Meanwhile, as Exit EEE as well as and Acrid Abeyance, he marked on a part live/part DJ tour, making worldwide appearances at the Love Parade, Tribal Gathering (UK) and Club UK in London. Various productions and recordings followed on Harthouse, Twisted America Records, XL Recordings and Finger Lickin' Records among others. Although he has never counted them, Jürgen must have over 200 hundred releases under his belt to date, including several chart entries plus roughly the same amount of remixes for acts such as Frankie Goes To Hollywood, Armand Van Helden or Green Velvet. The story continued, as in 2000 he teamed up with Oliver Klein and added his spice to worldwide respected productions such as 'Rheinkraft' and 'Timeloop'. Besides being the productional mastermind behind Klein - currently one the most popular and requested artist on the scene - these days Jürgen focuses more and more on his solo career. To date he has released six records under his own name, signed by internationally respected labels such as Mutekki, Hook Recordings, Maelstrom Records, N.E.W.S. and Stik Records, as well as various remixes for highly acclaimed labels such as Hooj Choons, Alphabet City. The story still continues as Jürgen owns Mutekki alongside Oliver Klein and as he´s still writing this biography…
