PvD, as his fans have nicknamed him, has been ranked the World s No. 1 DJ by DJ Magazine s Top 100 DJs poll two times something less than a handful of DJs have ever achieved.

In 2008 Paul expanded into creating music for video games and movie soundtracks. His work with EA Games has resulted in mulitple releases featuring his music on Mirror's Edge and Grand Slam Tennis out in 2009. Paul has also lent his talents to remixing Batman's "Dark Knight Theme" written by Hanz Zimmer.

PvD received a Grammy nomination in 2005 for Best Dance/Electronic Album for his original album Reflections this marked the first time NARAS recognized this category.

Paul van Dyk was voted "Best Music Maker" by DJ Magazine, received the Best International DJ Award at the 1999 Music Awards in London, was named "Best International DJ" by Ministry of Sound Magazine, and Mixmag elected him as Man of the Year . Born in Eisenhuettenstadt, East Germany, Paul van Dyk grew up in communist East Berlin. Because his community did not have a true club culture, Paul van Dyk listened to the radio where he discovered his passion for music that extended beyond Techno music he wanted to create a different, more unique sound. In the early 1990 s Paul van Dyk was spinning regularly at various clubs in Berlin before releasing his first album 45 RPM in 1994. But it wasn t until the release of his second album Seven Ways which catapulted him into the Top 100, followed by the release of his hit single For An Angel, which began to earn him praise across the globe. By the time Paul van Dyk released Out There & Back in 2000, it became clear that the Berlin-based musician had far more to offer than his signature club sets and remixes that had already defined him as one of the most influential DJs and producers of all time. His first compilation mix CD Politics of Dancing was released in 2001, followed by Global in 2003 a DVD which illustrates his own experiences traveling the world. Paul van Dyk s touring diary remains incredibly hectic with regular globetrotting stops at major venues across the globe from New York, London, Ibiza to India, China and Singapore. In the little time remaining between all the travel, Paul van Dyk resides in Berlin where he has his own radio show Paul van Dyk s VONYC Sessions which airs weekly on the Area Channels on Sirius XM Satellite Radio on Thursday nights at 6PM EST (and rebroadcasts Saturdays at 8PM EST and Tuesdays at Midnight EST) and Soundgarden which airs every Wednesday 2pm 4pm (EST) on Fritz radio and over the internet (www.fritz.de) as well as Galaxy FM in the UK.
