Kalberg and Molijn have been contributing to the international dance scene for over twenty years, with award-winning and platinum-selling hits for dance acts such as Alice Deejay, Vengaboys, Candee Jay, Pronti and Kalmani and Solid Sessions. Their track "Better Off Alone" was one of the first trance records that became big in the U.S. and was later sampled by French superstar DJ David Guetta in his song "Play Hard" and one of America's biggest rappers Wiz Khalifa in his breakthrough record "Say Yeah". They also had worked together with DJ Sander Kleinenberg on classic tracks like "This Is Miami" and "The Fruit" and remixes for major artists such as Justin Timberlake ('Rock Your Body' Remix winning the award for 'Best Remix' at the Dance Star USA Awards), Janet Jackson, BT, Usher, N.E.R.D., Lenny Kravitz, Junkie XL, Röyksopp, Mylo and Annie Lennox.
On 18 June 2018, Sutorius announced his split from Dash Berlin while severing ties with Kalberg and Molijn, alleging mismanagement and career neglect issues. Beginning October 2018, Sutorius has been performing and releasing songs credited under his own name, while Dash Berlin continued as a duo. Sutorius later gained Legal ownership of the name on 21 June 2019 while Kalberg and Molijn were forced out from Dash Berlin to pursue their own musical projects.
On 29 March 2021, Sutorius announced on his Facebook page that he would onwards perform, produce and release music under his own name "Jeffrey Sutorius". The announcement came after he had lost a legal dispute with the former members of the group who has since 17 March 2021 been the legal owners of the Dash Berlin trademark.

Dash Berlin Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Trying hard not to miss anything life might give
Or do I keep on running round?
Chasing my tail, never exhale
How come I never settle down?
Will I ever rest my head?
At ease, at peace
I ask of you
If only fools are satisfied
Take my sanity away
If only fools, fools are satisfied
Take my sanity away
If only fools are satisfied
Take my sanity away
When will I ever lose this drive?
I try but I never seem to win this fight
I'm like a house without a soul
The emptiness keeps me going
Maybe you can make me whole
And sooth my head
At ease, at peace
And in need of nothing else
I ask of you
If only fools are satisfied
Take my sanity away
If only fools, fools are satisfied
Take my sanity away
If only fools are satisfied
Take my sanity away
The lyrics of "Fool For Life" by Dash Berlin and Chris Madin revolve around the theme of the search for inner peace and happiness. The singer questions their way of life, wondering if they should continue to chase after everything life has to offer or if they should learn to settle down and be content with what they have. They express frustration about their constant drive and the feeling of emptiness that it brings. They long for someone to help them find a sense of wholeness and calm to escape the cycle of chasing after the next thing.
The chorus of the song, "If only fools are satisfied, take my sanity away," emphasizes the idea that sometimes it seems like the only way to achieve a sense of contentment is to give up one's sense of rationality and control. The singer is willing to sacrifice their sanity if it means being able to find lasting happiness.
The lyrics of "Fool For Life" connect with listeners who struggle with feelings of dissatisfaction and restlessness. The upbeat melody and catchy chorus make the song a crowd-pleaser at live shows.
