D-LICIOUS 2009
Special-D
Special D., boldly set out to conquer the international pop
and dance market in 2003. The 21-year-old Hamburg lad climbed to number 13 in the
German single charts with his very first song Come with Me. That was just the
beginning, however. The track went on to reach the Top 10 in the Netherlands and
the UK (no. 6).
His second single Home Alone saw his sound being enhanced with break beats
and even elements of hip hop. That was precisely the reason why it was just as
successful as the first single and made Special D. the shooting star of 2003. Not only
was he nominated for an ECHO award, he also picked up the Netherlands top music
trophy, the TMF Award as Best International Dance Act. A nomination for the Radio
538 award in the Best Song of 2003 category followed.
The likeable Hamburger, who always seems to be smiling, decided not to rush his
first album. He spent almost a whole year working on the tracks and sounds before it
was finished. But not only for his tracks he is working in his studio in Hamburg. He
writes and produces songs for other artists, including Dickheadz, DJ Dean, DJ
Digress and Brooklyn Bounce. And together with Wout van Dessel from Belgium
Dance-Pop-Act Sylver he produced songs for the Bulgarian Popstar Winner.
As early as 13, Special D was working on keyboards and pianos. He occupied the
studio at his school before eventually being put in charge of it. In 1994, he discovered
dance music and showed off to his schoolmates on the turntables. In addition, he
played keyboards and guitar in a school band. At the age of 15, he used money
given to him as a confirmation present to buy the equipment to set up his own home
studio and took the first steps towards producing music. Soon afterwards Brooklyn
Bounce producers Dennis Bohn and Matthias Menck noticed him and invited him to
their studio.
