Ever since Tatana Sterba mixed the "Live At Street Parade" CD in 1998 she has been the icon of Switzerlands Trance scene. Whenever this 29-year-old Djane from Zurich is behind the turntable at raves such as "Energy" or in clubs like OXA in Zurich and MAD in Lausanne, she gets a grip on her audience like none other. Her true fans can always be found on the front row, with their homemade Tatana banners. As female producer of hits such as Dream Off, End Of Time (with DJ Energy) and Words, shes a member of Switzerlands premier trance league. English magazine M8 enthusiastically wrote: The way she builds up her sets is wonderful, to see Tatana mixing is the dream of every music knower (98).

The self-made woman was born on 7th October 1976 in former Czechoslovakia. Whilst at school she played various different instruments and was already developing a sensitive feel for music. She also attended dancing schools for ballet and jazz At the beginning of the Swiss techno and house movement, Tatana was dancing the night away at parties and so came into contact with many influential people in the industry. In May 1994, at the tender age of seventeen, she first had the opportunity to impress everyone with her talent during a party at Groodonia in Rümlang. Some small gigs in and around Zurich followed, and in the same year she had the opportunity to prove herself at bigger events such s Futurescope, Evolution, Magic Kingdom and Metropolis. In 1997 Tatana produced her own first record, released on Liquid Records, in Frankfurts Polaris-Studio, along with the German star producer Torsten Stenzel (Taucher, DJ Sakin & Friends, Redlight District, York).

In November, she managed to conquer the Swiss market straightaway with her next Mix-CD, Pure Elements.
