Dave The Hustler is a Swiss electronic music producer, remixer and dj.

Dave released his first production in 1998 as he founded the label “Paparazzi records” with the excellent & mysterious Clive Jenkins alias Evil C. on which he produced, among others, the tunes “Club Honey” and “Soleil”.

At this point Dave’s sound is already beginning to take shape ; strong lows and big samples backed with tough beats for the dance floors. The Paparazzi label, and more specifically releases “ Hacking the Disco-Tech “ and “ Terrasse “ benefit from support by Sven Väth, Laurent Garnier and Tomas Brinkmann, who also recently featured the track “Get up” on his Resident Advisor podcast (RA 143)

When Dave the Hustler meets Felix da Housecat in 2001, they develop a close friendship, and work together on “ Kittenz & Thee Glitz ” of which some tracks remain references to this day for electronic music in the 21st century. Dave co-writes “Silver Screen” (Shower Scene), “Happy Hour”, “What does it Feel like” and the famous remix of «Motor Inn» by Iggy Pop which propels them to a nomination for a Grammy Award in the “ Best Remixed Recording, Non-Classical “ category during the 47th annual awards.

In parallel Dave also imports Cassy Britton to Switzerland and they recorded «Her Dream» and “More than This” on Mental Groove records, the former of which is remixed by David Carretta and Patrick Pulsinger.
Dave continues his studio work with Felix da Housescat in 2004 for his second album “Devin Dazzle & The Neon Fever” more specifically the songs «Watching Cars Go by» and a production with Juliette Lewis called “Sweet n’ Low Tokyo”. End 2004 and 2005, Dave The Hustler works with P.Diddy & Felix Da Housecat on the production and co-writing of the global underground hit “Jack U” ("Jack U vs. I'll House You"). At this point Dave moves in with Tyson Ziebarth (Virgin Tears, Deth Hertz) in San Diego and works with the Virgin Tears and Julien K on remixes and productions (Dreamland, Loudhailer).

In 2006, another project brings Dave back to Switzerland. He gets together with Detroit Grand Pubahs to create the wild “Filth n Dirt” project with the release of two singles “I81u812” (remixed by Hervé, Trevor Loveys) and “Go Ahead” (remixed by Vitalic), another smash hit which encourages Dave The Hustler & Detroit Grand Pubahs, aka “Filth n Dirt” to compose more songs, available on the Pubahs forthcoming album Madd Circus.
Dave joins Kate Wax for her “ Dark Heat “ tour as her drummer in 2006/2007, and remixes her own “Cash on Time” (Mental Groove).

After the release of his collaboration with Lad : “Era Bulgaris “ on on Lee Van Dowski’s Num records in 2007, Dave has twin girls and decides to take a family break.

Fall of 2010 marks Dave’s return by way of Detroit Grand Pubahs' Madd Circus album, containing two songs co-written by Dave : "White Pigeon", remixed by Motor and Orlando Voorn, and "Breakfast in Bed" soon to be remixed and released as a third single.

Dave has also remixed the song "Maybe I Do" from the same album and has plans for many remixes during winter 2011, soon to be revealed and previewed.
