Berlin-based dance music breakout Marlon Hoffstadt has signed to Capitol Records.
The Club Heart Broken label founder, fans of whom affectionately refer to as DJ Daddy Trance, characterized the record deal as the biggest achievement of his career thus far.
“It took me years to find my own sound and to find confidence, and it took me even longer to find the perfect label deal for myself,” Hoffstadt said in a press release. “Partnering up with the amazing team of Capitol, Goodlife Management, MC3 and my beloved management Invisible Hand, we found a setup that makes me feel extremely excited, confident and thankful to be a part of. This definitely is the biggest achievement of my career and I‘m so damn ready for it.”
The move follows a streak of global buzz and sold-out shows, signaling Hoffstadt’s rapid rise from underground hero to festival staple. Fresh off his U.S. live debut closing the mainstage at North America’s largest EDM festival, EDC Las Vegas, he is now poised for a sold-out, 20,000-person show in Belgium this August alongside techno phenom KI/KI.

“Marlon and his team have been building something incredibly special; he has risen to become one of the most exciting artists in dance music,” added Tom March, Chairman and CEO at Capitol Music Group. “We’re thrilled to become part of the team and help amplify his global presence.”
Celebrating the signing, Hoffstadt has dropped a new double-single, “Supersonic / Hands Up In The Sky.” The former is a breakneck rave anthem featuring Swedish vocalist Emma Skøien while the latter leans into pure euphoria with its soaring production.
