DJ Dreammaker

DJ Dreammaker – alias Robert Engel – was born in 1976 in Switzerland. Until his 18th birthday it was rock and pop music that fascinated him. However, when he got his driving licence, he’s possibilities to go out began to broaden. First visits in Zurich’s clubs such as Oxa, Groodonia and Sensor were on his list. From this point, there was no way back. DJ Dreammaker was so inspired by trance and techno music, and no other style of music was of interest for him anymore. He visited all big rave-ups and the Street parade in Zurich is still the event of the year DJ Dreammaker is never going to miss. What fascinated him the most were always the DJs. This is why DJ Dreammaker spent most of the night standing next to the DJs watching and admiring their work. However, the big rave-ups and parties were organised scarcely in Switzerland. Also the clubs stopped playing trance music regularly. Therefore, DJ Dreammaker began to concentrate himself more and more to Holland, where he could celebrate some of the big parties such as Sensation White, Trance Energy and Tiesto in Concert. In 2005, DJ Dreammaker and his friend DJ Lawrence Palmer created a concept to organise an own event “Firedance” in a club called Firehouse. This event shall renew the good old times with contemporary sound. This aim was reached with the first two parties in 2005. DJ Dreammaker was more and more convinced that he wanted to stand behind the turntables himself. This dream came true on his 30th birthday. Thenceforward, nothing could stop DJ Dreammaker anymore, and he became a regular guest of DJ shops. The different beats and melodies became a big part of my life, and they go along with me day by day. To mix the single tracks together so they become one unique set that transfers people into a kind of trance is my everyday inspiration.
