It was 1998, I was only years old, me and my family first time in our lifetime went abroad. We had a week vocation in Spain. It was a sunny and hot day. Everything was perfect. I got out the pool and decided to chill on the bench. My mind was relaxed..suddenly I hear 9 pm till I come playing somewhere. I did not know it is ATB, but this song was so wonderful and so making my day that i would just keep looking for it on radio channels in the car, music stores. The problem was I did not know the artist name and nobody could help me. because I was too young I decided to stop looking, but in 2000 I heard it again and this is where my adventure towards ATB music started. I would say I fully discovered ATB in 2003 or 2004 but I am proud to say that I am his fan since 1998. ATB YOU ARE THE BEST! THE BEST DJ OF ALL TIMES!

YOUR FAN FOR LIFE!

Also bei mir hat es mit "Let U Go" angefangen. Vorher kannte ich ATB schon von z.b. "The Summer", aber da wusste ich nicht, dass der Track von ihm war. Jedenfalls hatte mich "Let U Go" sofort geflasht und ich wollte dann auch mehr von ihm h?ren. Somit habe ich nat?rlich auch gleich das Album "Dedicated" gekauft, wo es raus kam. Vorher war ich auch schon recht im alten Forum aktiv und konnte schon mal die Fann?he von ATB bewundern. Echt toll.
Naja, danach kam das Album "Addicted to Music" und die ?lteren Sachen hatte ich auch gleich mit nachbestellt.
Ich muss sagen, dass ich durch ATB zur elektronischen Musik so richtig gekommen bin. Vorher war ich eher so in der Popecke ATB-Musik verbindet mich mit vielen tollen Erinnerungen in der Vergangenheit. Ich h?re auch heute noch seine ganzen Sachen. Sei es im Fitness-Studio oder z.b. im Auto. Selbstverst?ndlich h?re ich auch andere K?nstler, aber dennoch muss ich sagen, dass ich mich bis jetzt mit allen anfreunden konnte, was ATB produziert hatte. Nun freue ich mich auf "Future Memories". Mein CD-Wechsler im Auto wartet schon

i remember telling this on the old forum, but here we go again.

i was 5th grade (2001), and i was on this road trip with my class (and others) that lasted for the whole day. when we got back, we were listening to a local radio station in our coach, joking, messing around, some of us were screaming, etc. like 5th grade then, after a commercial, "hold you" started to play. when i heard it, i was like on another planet. i was hearing only the ATB's track on the radio, nothing else, and watching the night traffic as we were driving home. it was an incredible moment, i can't explain. my mind made something like a "click!" on that track. since that night i started to love ATB's music, and i got totally addicted. and since then, i started to love trance music as well

The first time I consciously listened to and liked a song by ATB was when a local radio station started to play "Hold You" over and over again.
I heard about the song "9PM" before, though. But "Hold You" was my first real contact with Andr?'s music.

After that I didn't listen to his music at all, until I listened to a few of his tracks at Lasf.fm by chance. This was a few months before "Trilogy" was released. I became paralyzed by the high quality dance and chillout music, so that i decided to buy two albums ("dedicated" and "addicted to music". I was so excited that I also bought the first two and the new one "Trilogy" and listened to it all day long. =)

also bei mir hat es damals mit "I DON'T WANNA STOP" angefangen. hatte mir damals die maxi-cd geholt, weil ich den song so toll fand.
aber ich wei? noch, dass in einem sommer bei RTL zu einem abspann immer "9PM" kam & ich wollte unbedingt wissen, von wem der song ist, habs aber damals nicht rausgefunden.
in der schule haben wir uns untereinander dannn immer cd's ausgetauscht & auf einer bravohits cd von einem schulkameraden war dann "LONG AY HOME" drauf. ,,ah guck mal, der song ist ja von atb" hab ich mir gedacht. und der song hat mir damals auch gut gefallen also hab ich dann beschlossen, mir "ADDICTED TO MUSIC" zu kaufen & ich war total begeistert von dem album. also bin ich mit meinem letzten taschengeld los, um nach anderen alben zu suchen & siehe da: es standen genau noch 3 verschiedene alben von atb im regal. also musste ich mich entscheiden, welche 2 alben ich mir kaufen soll, da ja das taschengeld fast alle war und ein album 10? gekostet hat. dann hab ich mich f?r "MOVIN MELODIES"&"DEDICATED" entschieden. und zuhause hab ich dann auch den song geh?rt, der damals auf RTL kam & hab mich ?belst gefreut und seitdem bin ich fan
mich hat die musik von atb schon damals angesprochen, wusste nur nicht, das die von ihm war.

I've heard 9pm first in my discotheque in Hennef " Hippodrome " ( was the name of it that time ) and couldn't get the track out
my ears. I ran into a music store to buy the track next Monday
I became a Fan of ATB then when he came for a night to that club to do a guest dj-ing a couple of weeks later.
Couldn't get my eyes off him, he was so full of energy, kinda hypnoting and he had a great feeling for " the masses " to
find a way to motivate them to dance and to totally fall into the music.. Never felt that any other DJ could do so later...
I've seen him since then only a very few times live, but bought every album and many single tracks since then. Latest I saw him at the
nature one festival last year, and recognized that he had not changed at all! Amazing, after all that success he stayed on the floor

I remember Andre since SQ1 pretty well. Mostly from Club Rotation at VIVA DE. Then they used to play less ads and more good music. Viva was broadcasting in analogue quality at ASTRA satellite. So it was very annoying when it was raining and picture was crap*y In late 90's it was almost impossible to buy CD/CC with new good music. So we recorded it from TV Great childhood I must admit Sometimes I feel so old

I heard "What about us" at a hookah bar here in Korea and asked who it was, she said ATB, then I became hooked to ATB's music.

He was the guy who got me into EDM back in the 90's and to this day remains my favourite artist! After 10 years, i'm finally getting to see him live in September!
