Lange's career began in 1997, signing his first recording contract with Additive Records in the UK. Early popularity was achieved with a collection of releases attracting the attention of industry leaders such as Paul van Dyk, Sasha, Paul Oakenfold, and Judge Jules.
Lange had several hits in the UK Singles Chart. His remix work includes DJ Sakin's "Protect Your Mind", which was followed by his Lost Witness "Happiness Happening" remix. Other remix credits include work for Faithless and the Pet Shop Boys (the Lange remix of "New York City Boy" featured on their Pop Art album's bonus "remix disc").
In 1999, he released the vinyl-only single "I Believe" featuring vocals by Sarah Dwyer charting at No. 68. A year later, in 2000, he released the single "Follow Me" on Positiva, featuring the vocals of Cecily Fay from The Morrighan. Upon its release, the track was deemed chart ineligible as the CD single contained six tracks (including the previous release "I Believe") and over 40 minutes of music (at the time, chart rules stated that CD singles could only contain three tracks with a total running length of 20 minutes). The single reached No. 1 on the UK budget album chart upon release, staying in the chart for four weeks. "I Believe" and "Follow Me" were re-released as part of Positiva Records 10th birthday celebrations in 2003, reaching No. 12 in the UK budget album chart.
"Drifting Away" reached No. 9 in the UK Singles Chart in 2002, and resulted in Lange performing on the BBC One's Top of the Pops and also the Pepsi Chart Show. Lange was also behind the SuReaL track "You Take My Breath Away", which peaked at No. 15 in the UK in 2000.
Lange mixes have accumulated many appearances on compilation albums, including two tracks on the million-selling EMI Now That's What I Call Music! series. Other projects include his 'Firewall', 'LNG', and 'Vercetti' guises. In 2003, Firewall's "Sincere" was released on Armin Van Buuren's A State of Trance record label, and was re-released on Lange's own label, Lange Recordings. His 2003 track, "Don't Think It (Feel It)" (featuring Leah) peaked at No. 59 in the UK Singles Chart. In 2005, Lange went down the commercial road again with the release of the vocal track "If I ever see you again", under the name of Offbeat, however this only made number 136 in the UK Charts, probably due to it being a 12" release only despite the apparent mainstream appeal of the track.
As a club DJ, Lange reached No. 37 in the DJ Mag poll. As well as playing some of the UK's biggest clubs (including Godskitchen, Gatecrasher, Passion, Gallery, and Slinky), Lange regularly tours internationally. Touring has taken him to Australia, Denmark, Finland, Germany, Hungary, Japan, Netherlands, New Zealand, Russia, China, Singapore, Sweden, Switzerland, Ibiza, Canada and the United States. Lange has headlined music festivals including Australia's Summadayze (alongside Tiësto), the Popsicle festival in San Francisco, Spooky and WEMF in Canada, and Fortdance in St Petersburg performing alongside Ferry Corsten and Tiësto.
He released his debut album Better Late Than Never on Maelstrom and Lange Recordings in 2007. The album had one CD of new material, and a second disc called History that highlighted some of his past hits from 1998 to the present. Three singles from the album had successful releases; those were "Songless", "Angel Falls" and the most successful release, "Lange feat. Sarah Howells – Out of the Sky". That release retained a top 10 position on the Beatport Trance Chart for a considerable time after the track's release in October 2008, and earned Lange the nomination as one of the Beatport Top 10 selling Trance Artists in 2008.
His label Create Music continues to push the boundaries of Trance and Progressive Music.
Our very special Guest is the supremely talented Kinetica, an artist that has been making serious waves in the Electronic Music world in recent years with his fantastic Productions!
Kinetica is an artist who is proving to be one of the most exciting talents from the world famous Irish trance scene. Dee Henry aka Kinetica has been making some serious noise across the scene with his signature high energy, uplifting trance and hard tech trance production sound. With an electric blend of skill and passion for trance music flowing through him, this artist is sending shock waves far and wide as his original tracks, remixes and killer reworks earn him support from the who's who of trance music.
After cutting his teeth on some up and coming labels, the legendary Black Hole Recordings first discovered Kinetica when he remixed the massive classic 'Kamaya Painters (Tiesto & Benno De Geoij) - Endless Wave' which went on to receive full release on the iconic Dutch imprint In Trance We Trust, introducing Kinetica on a global level. Summer 2015 saw Black Hole Recordings making Kinetica one of their roster artists after In Trance We Trust became a regular output for his music with nine releases to date. Collaborating with the trance legends Talla 2xlc and Binary Finary, his reworking of classics plus stunning original tracks and remixes caught the attention of ITWT A&R Menno De Jong who asked him for a personal remix which then lead to Kinetica and Menno's collaboration 'Aurelis', earning him his first top 10 spot in the trance charts. Sterling reviews in DJ MAG plus regular support from Paul van Dyk, Aly & Fila, Sean Tyas, Menno De Jong and many more including numerous radio plays on Armin Van Buuren's A State Of Trance, FSOE Radio and Degenerate Radio have helped pave the way towards the next level.
Kinetica is currently signing music to the mega labels FSOE and Vandit, also Sean Tyas and Activa's Regenerate and RAM's Nocturnal Animals amongst other smaller but equal quality labels. In 2019 he created a tougher tech sound that caught the interest of FSOE Clandestine where he has became a regular with his track 'The Rattler' being selected by Aly & Fila for their 'Sands Of Time' compilation. He also created a BXR bass bomb called 'Major Tom' which the legendary UK hard trance label Tidy Two picked up, this one has devastated crowds of up to 10,000 at Belfasts SSE during the Subculture Belfast Tour. On the vocal front Kinetica has already worked with Irish trance royalty Audrey Gallagher in a collab with Binary Finary called 'In Our Blood' and also the fabulous talents of Denise Rivera with 'When The Heart Runs Dry' on Amsterdam Trance Records.
A regular team up is Kinetica & Inversed, Anton and Dee are childhood friends who always shine bright when they get together in the studio whether its the more uplifting style or tech trance with hard trance fusions. Talking about collabs, Kinetica's biggest personal studio achievement to date was teaming up with the trance godfather himself Paul Van Dyk for 'First Contact' which features on the luminary German's 2020 album 'Guiding Light'.
He launched his label Kinected Recordings in 2020.
