Biography

Founded in 1998 by brothers Dirk and Marco Duderstadt, they produced their first single Toca Me with experienced record producer, Ramon Zenker. When it was released the following year, it topped several dance charts around the world, and reached #11 in the UK Singles Chart.

In 2000, a mash-up, Toca's Miracle was produced, taking the music of Fragma's Toca Me and placing the vocals from Coco Star's 1997 song I Need A Miracle over the top, which gained further attention from DJs Pete Tong and Judge Jules. As Fragma and Coco were on the same record label at the time (Positiva), the vocals were rerecorded by Coco and an official release was made, and went straight to #1 in the UK chart, and was popular in Australia and Ireland. An album was released in 2001; Toca, as well as two other singles; Everytime You Need Me (UK #3 hit), which featured vocals by Maria Rubia, and You Are Alive (UK #4 hit) with vocals by Damae.

2002 saw the Duderstadts set up their own studio, called Evergreen-Terrace. The same year saw Fragma still operating with vocalist Damae, and releasing a second album; Embrace, with hit singles such as Say That You're Here, Embrace Me, Man In The Moon and Time And Time Again.

Dirk and Marco are also currently working as a duo under their surname Duderstadt. Two singles have been released under this name; Sunrise and Taking Over on Gang Gi Records. A third single, Mahananda was released in 2005 on a new Recordlabel called Afterglow Records. Followed by the 4th single Muhanjala in 2006 and 5th Single feat. The UK Singer Anita Kelsey called Smile in 2007. In 2006, Fragma released the new single Radio Waves together with Kirsty Hawkshaw. It is not yet known if another studio album will be released under this name. At this stage, it seems that Damae has left the group.

Tocastorm was another mash- up made from Darude's Sandstorm.

In late 2007 a remix of Toca Me was released--often mislabeled Deadmau5 Remix, it is actually the In Petto 2008 Remix; Deadmau5 had no connection to it. 2008 saw the release of Toca's Miracle 2008 which came with Toca Me 2008, the In Petto remixes of the original songs. The release of Toca's Miracle 2008 has resulted in much success, making the Top 5 on the World Dance charts, #1 on the Brazil Dance Charts, and #2 on the Australian ARIA Club Charts.
