André Tanneberger aka ATB (born February 26, 1973 in Freiberg, Saxony, Germany) is a musical artist. He is a DJ, musician, and producer of trance and dance music. Among his most famous songs is “
9pm (Till I Come)”, which topped the charts in the United Kingdom in 1999 and is widely regarded as the UK’s first Trance number one. The track features a guitar riff which became hugely popular. This guitar sound, which he accidentally found while experimenting with a new producing deck, became the trademark of his early hits. ATB continues to evolve and change with every album. His current style involves more vocals and varied sounds, with frequent pianos.
Despite only releasing a few more singles in the UK, namely “Don’t stop!” (No.3, 300,000 copies sold) and “Killer” (No.4, 200,000 copies sold), he still regularly releases music in his native Germany and in other parts of Europe, where he has scored big hits such as “I Don’t Wanna Stop” and his cover of Olive’s 1996 hit “You’re Not Alone”.
“Two Worlds” (2000) is a two-disc album based upon the concept of different types of music for different moods, with titles such as “The World Of Movement” and “The Relaxing World”.
ATB’s latest hits include uplifting “Ecstasy” and chilling “Marrakech”, both from the album “No Silence” (2004) and also released as singles.

This is the best composer, songwriter, performer, EVER born. I don't know where he seeks inspiration from, but he has not one _single_ track that is not just purely AMAZING. How he manages to do that, I can not tell you, but he is the only artist I know that has released so many albums and each track is unique, unlike all the others. And just when you hear something he's made, you can always tell: That's it, that's ATB! It just cannot be anyone else.

Comparing ATB to Darshan sounds a little strange and unfair :) ATB is definitely not trance, yet his music is good and touching in its own way.

there's nothing bad about having affinity towards more commercial, popular or mass-orientated music. Commercial doesn't necessarily mean bad, as it's merely an objective description or property of certain artists, making certain music. Consider it as a fact. Classical instrumental music is meant to be mass-orientated and it actually *is* mass-orientated; however, it says nothing bad about it. ATB doesn't produce strictly trance music, he produces dance, occasionally chilling electronic music, but not trance. Term trance is a bit more complicated. Just don't be so aware of the word "commercial" and learn taking it properly. For better clarification, let's compare commercial artists (ATB) with non-commercial. For example, Mindsphere, Darshan or Bypass Unit aren't commercial trance artists; they are not mass-oriented, more complicated and peculiar, which means that not every person would enjoy it. It's not good or bad, it's merely a fact.
