Marlon Hoffstadt

Does he need an introduction? Marlon Hoffstadt, aka DJ Daddy Trance, is a Berlin-based DJ and producer redefining high-energy club music with a bold, emotional edge. Rooted in trance and rave, his sound blends pop melodies, euphoric hooks, and full-throttle dancefloor pressure, always guided by joy rather than rules. After years in Berlin’s clubs from a young age, he reinvented himself in 2020, embracing excess, emotion, and singalong moments without irony. His sets are explosive and playful, built for release, sweat, and collective loss of inhibition. Equally prolific as a producer, Marlon feeds his audience with a constant stream of edits and originals, keeping the connection direct and alive. Whether in intimate rooms or massive halls, he brings warmth, humour, and sincerity to the booth. Anti-purist, unapologetic, and deeply human, DJ Daddy Trance plays music to feel everything, together. Those who witnessed the madness at Paradise City two years ago can confirm: better come prepared.
