Dirk Adamiak (born 1970), better known by his stage name Blutonium Boy, is a hardstyle producer and DJ from Germany. He started playing as a DJ in 1988.
Career
In 1986, Blutonium Boy began his DJ career in a small club in southern Germany. In 1988, he quit his job to concentrate on his music more freely and within a year he played in front of 2,500 visitors and started to receive booking requests from abroad. In 1997, he founded the record label Blutonium Records, where he released his first work Dreams in my Fantasy, as DJ Session One. Worldwide marketing via EastWest (Warner) with airplay on Viva helped him to reach the breakthrough.
In the following years, Blutonium Records developed into the Blutonium Media Germany Group, which has now published more than 170 works with several sub-labels and operates a social network for musicians under the name Blupile.
In November 2008, EMI Germany released a best-of-hardstyle series, which includes four mixed CDs from the repertoire of Blutonium Records. In collaboration with EMI, a series of hardstyle compilations under the name Blutonium Presents Hardstyle was released in Germany and Australia.
Blutonium Boy announced that his career as a hardstyle DJ temporarily paused in the summer of 2009. However, as of July 17, 2012, Blutonium Boy has officially returned. He announced this by releasing the single Hardstyle Instructor is back. He was also responsible for the compilation Hardstyle 10 Years released on November 23. In 2013 the compilation series Hardstyle with Hardstyle Vol 26, which had been picked up by Showtek, was returned to Blutonium Boy.
On June 21, 2013, Blutonium Boy played in EDC (Las Vegas) on the BassCon stage [1]
Blutonium Records
Adamiak founded Blutonium Records in 1996, which up to 2011 produced 160 releases. Blutonium Records later became a division of Blutonium Media Germany, with 6 sublabels. The sublabels are Blutonium Traxx, Dance 2 Trance, Pumping Trance, Q-Asar, Trianon Records and BAM Recordings. Since Blutonium Records isn't producing trance anymore, but hardstyle, the production of trance is in the hands of the sublabels. In December 2005 Blutonium Records released its 100th vinyl.[2]
