Daniela was born 1977 in Germany. After the graduation as a Sports and Gymnastic Teacher she left Germany and moved to the Netherlands where she fell in love with a man and the music and the whole country. She was 21 when she started professional working as a dancer and promoter in  different Clubs, Discos and Events in Germany, Netherlands, Spain, Belgium, Mallorca and Italy. In this jobs she was always in contact with the DJs, the Scene and the Music.

As an energetic dancer she always tried to get the fitting music to her performance, but her favorite style got rare, the mainstream changed to Hip Hop and House, so she decided to become a DJ to play that music that she loves. It was in 2001 when she bought her first DJ equipment and records and she started mixing her first CDs.

After some time training she presented her mix cds to several friends and djs and got lots of positive reactions on it. She started playing in 3 local clubs (Nottuln  Airport, Mhlheim  Nightlife, Knig) and so the first booking agency was found and she toured together with 3 German female DJs in big german clubs. Her style is much inspired by some of her DJ friends and producers like Piet Bervoets (Rank 1), Arne Reichelt (Alphateam), Ferry Corsten, Armin van Buuren, DJ Precision, Ron van den Beuken.

She get her first success outside Germany as winner of 2 DJ Contests 2003 in the Belgian Club-Disco Atmoz and the dutch dtf  club mixcontest. Job reasons forced her to take 2004 time off. But january 2005 she came back and they started working hard for a further success of her carrier. So some more gigs in the Netherlands been played and she spinned several times in Poland. Germany and Greece this summer after finishing some radio mixes that have been played in several radio stations around the world. Now she is working on more radio performances and is planning her following trips to asia and south america where they appreciated her style very much.

My goal is to reach out to the audience and let them share in the joy and energy of music. Music is the engine that drives me, it influences 100% of my life.

Behind the name 4 Strings hides 2 musicians, Carlo Resoort and Jan de Vos. The two have known each other since 1986. In 1990 they became interested in dance music and from that moment on, they started producing their own music. All their spare time was spent in the studio. Throughout the next couple of years not only did their skills expand but also the amount of equipment in their studio. With the new tools and experience that they had, they could finally discover in which direction they wanted to go with their musical careers: Carlo decided to stay in the studio while Jan found his passion in mixing and started his DJ-ing career.

Jan met up with Piet Bervoets (Carlos, ROOS and Rank 1). Piet taught him the basics of mixing. After a couple of months, Jan joined a drive-in-show, where he played all kinds of music from R&B, Top 40 to Happy Hardcore. His skills were improving rapidly, and it was during this time period he noticed that his main interest was in dance music. After winning a first place prize in a DJ contest, he was offered his very own residency.

Carlo Resoort started with dance music in 1994, and soon after that he had his first release.  After a couple of releases he had his first major breakthrough: "Carlos - the silmarilla", produced together with Piet Bervoets of Rank 1. Two years later he had another hit with "Turn it around". Around this same time, a new record company was born, "Spinnin Records". Shortly thereafter Carlo signed his first record deal and 4 Strings was born.

"Daytime" was the first track of 4 Strings, supported by Paul van Dyk, Judge Jules and Tisto. The follow up was "Into the night", which got even more support. After a vocal edit called "Take me away" it became a huge hit around the globe, even now the track can be heard worldwide.

"Diving" and "Let it rain" were the follow ups, and soon the first album was released. After remixing Summer Sun they started to work on their second album Turn it around. The album was named after the new single which is a remake from Carlos former project Alena. Carlo also started another project under his own name, with productions like Remover, O class, "Musica, Ayers Rock and Rise. 

In 2005, 4 Strings released another hit Sunrise, this track was the theme of the number one dance music festival in Poland also called Sunrise.

DJ 4 Strings is not just your average DJ, he is an entertainer. He is part of the new generation of DJs today. Crowds are amazed by his refreshing and unique style of playing music. DJ 4 Strings is always prepared with unpredictable and quality tracks that both excite existing fans and bring new people to the scene. There is so much good music out there and 4 Strings do not want to limit themselves to one style. 4 Strings is also in the top 10 for Holland on The DJ List.

4 Strings touring diary is incredibly hectic for 2006, with regular stops at major venues in the world. Such as touring the USA, Australia, Mexico, Poland, Asia and Holland just to name a few. 2006 is sure to be a massive year with the release of their brand new track Hurricane and also playing at the leading trance party of Holland Trance Energy in February.
