With his debut single "9 PM (Till I Come)" released under the project name ATB, André Tanneberger made the big leap forward to become one of the top acts in the international Dance scene.
But let's start at the very beginning:
The parents of André Tanneberger, who was born in 1973 in the then GDR town of Freiberg (Thuringia), left the old East Germany in 1984 to try their luck in the West. On his weekends at the end of the Eighties André often went to the Tarm Center in Bochum, where he is the resident DJ today, to listen to DJ sets from Thomas Kukula. In 1992 he decided to make music himself. Equipped with an Amiga computer and a small synthesizer his first compositions were produced in his bedroom. Through a friend he finally met Thomas Kukula a.k.a. General Base, who was clearly impressed by André's first experiments and offered him the use of his studio to put the finishing touches to the songs he had prepared. In the studio, next to a lot of other equipment, André spotted a synthesizer called Sequential Pro One, which gave him the idea for the name of his first project Sequential One
