The German trance and techtrance producer and DJ Ian Buff was born in 1986.

He has been influenced by electronic music since he knew that there is something called music.
After listening to as many DJ sets as possible he started his own career as a DJ at the age of 14.
Some of his early key-players were Blank & Jones who are most likely responsible for his addiction to trance.

After two years of intensive training Ian got his first club residency offered and only shortly later he became part of a legendary friday Clubnight radioshow on a german fm radio station.

After a while just playing tracks from other producers was no more enough and he started to create his own ones.
In 2006 he signed his first record contract at the British label Monster Tunes and releases and remixes on other established labels followed soon.

Early 2008 he started his brand "Connective Sounds" which started with a radio show on Afterhours.fm and one year later the same titled label followed. Summarized, support on his productions from DJs like Paul van Dyk, Ferry Corsten and most others of the who is who of the scene, appearances on leading compilations and tracks in the regular programme of the famous German station Radio Sunshine Live speak volumes.
