As a dance music producer, his first big success came with the single Somebody Dance with Me, which is similar in sound to Rockwell's, "Somebody's Watching Me". The single hit number one in Switzerland. After this, he charted well with the singles Keep on Dancing and Take Control.
René has received numerous golds and platinums for his songs and has found success in Europe (primarily Germany and Switzerland) and South America. René's more recent songs are a departure from eurodance, but he still produces decent eurodance tracks such as Moscow (2001), No More Pain (2003), and Amazing Life (2005).
One of his singles, Chihuahua, was used in a Spanish Coca-Cola commercial. In 2003 it was re-released due to its huge success and it ended being the second best selling single of the year world wide. In December 2004, the Cantonese version of Chihuahua was written by Wyman Wong as the theme song of the same product. This version was performed by Joey Yung.
In 2004, as a result of the success of Chihuahua, René was awarded the Swiss award for Showbusiness at the Swiss awards, an annual event meant to recognise high achieving Swiss people.
As well as being a eurodance performer and producer, René is also a talented choreographic dancer.
During 1993 René met Nancy Rentzsch; she joined his team in 1995. René and Nancy became a couple and in 2002 they married and had two children, Jamiro Rene (born October 8, 2002) and Kayley Nancy (born September 29, 2006).
DJ Bobo’s became a United Nations World Food Programme National Ambassador Against Hunger in October 2006, becoming the first Swiss celebrity to take up the role. He was also a participant in the 2006 Geneva Walk the World event.
On October 11, 2006 DJ Bobo announced in a press conference that he has applied to represent Switzerland at the Eurovision Song Contest 2007 with his song "Vampires are alive".
UPDATE - Swiss broadcaster SF have announced that René Baumann (DJ BoBo), will represent the country at the 2007 Eurovision Song Contest. A jury made up of music professionals will select his song for Helsinki out of 60 potential entries.

DJ Bobo Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
In a world of music
In a world of sample sounds
Produced by
A concentrately programmed sequencer
In a world of beats and bars
Creating
A completely new dimension
To the results
Of a tremendous dream
Of technology
Combined with deep emotions
Let the dream come true
These lyrics from DJ Bobo's song Technology represent a futuristic world of music, where machines and technology reign supreme. The lyrics convey the idea of a new world of music created by a sequencer, where sample sounds and beats are used to create a unique dimension. The rhythm created by technology is coupled with deep emotions, which creates a powerful experience for the listener. The song is an ode to the possibilities of technology, which can help us create and experience music in new and exciting ways.
The song is a tribute to the power of music technology, which has enabled artists to create new sounds, rhythms and melodies that were impossible to create even a few years ago. DJ Bobo is a Swiss DJ who is known for his techno and eurodance music, and his music is often characterized by its use of technology and synthesizers. The lyrics of the song express the idea that technology can be used to create a world of music that is beyond the limits of the human imagination.

I love this album. There were many excellent Eurodance albums like Culture Beat Serenity, Masterboy Different Dreams, E-Rotic Sex Affairs or Fun Factory Fun - Tastic but the DJ Bobo There is A Party album is considered by me as the best in the history of this music.
Any song from this album could be the one promoting the whole album. There are simply no bad songs here. Each is excellent, which rarely happens because three or four promotional songs of a given artist in the media can be good but it doesn't mean that the whole album will be good.
Here all the songs are arranged very well and perfectly!
I still have my oryginal copy from 90' and and I'll never get rid of them!
Eero Kelder
One of the best LP's in all time.
