Dave Clarke

There are three artists with the name Dave Clark(e). Dave Clarke (* September 19th, 1968 in Brighton, England) is a Techno Producer and DJ, often given the status The Baron of Techno.
Dave Clarke has a well-deserved reputation as one of the greater techno and electro DJs in the world but he’s always been an outsider, from his stormy childhood in the 1980s to his tempestuous relationship with the media today.

Tiësto

Tijs Michiel Verwest (born January 17, 1969 in Breda, The Netherlands) is better known by his stage name Tiësto. He started out DJing professionally at school parties, and then moved on to become a resident DJ from 1985 to 1993 at several clubs in The Netherlands. It was at a club called 'The Spock' where things really took off for Tiësto; he stopped producing hardcore/gabber tracks and started to produce his own sound from 10pm until 4am on weekends. In the mid 1990s, Tiësto started to produce trance and the rest, as they say, is history.
