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.
Leave It All Behind
Dash Berlin Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
For a minute now
I wanna see your face
In the breakdown
We are in this thing together
We will both stay young forever
Underneath the night
And let's see what we find
When we leave it all behind
Can we leave it all behind?
Can we leave it all behind?
Can we leave it all behind?
The lyrics of “Leave It All Behind” by Dash Berlin feat. Roxanne Emery portray the idea of letting go of all worries and troubles and simply giving in to the moment. The first verse calls for the lights to be dimmed, emphasizing the need to focus solely on each other during the breakdown of the song. The chorus has a driving force behind it, urging the listener to stay with the singer and explore the unknown as they both stay young forever. The repetition of the question “Can we leave it all behind?” serves as a mantra, encouraging the listener to let go of everything holding them back and take a chance on the present moment.
The lyrics also suggest a sense of unity between the singer and the listener, as they are both in “this thing” together. The song focuses on the idea of being present in the moment and not getting lost in worries about the future or the past. The calm, soothing tone and the repetitive nature of the lyrics create a sense of peace and tranquility, inviting the listener to let go of everything and simply be in the moment.

Underneath the night
As we are shrouded in the darkness of the night, we find a sense of intimacy, where it's only us, without any distractions.
And let's see what we find
Let's explore, with an open mind and heart and experience the unexpected.
When we leave it all behind
Let's forget everything else, ignore all other distractions and be present in this moment with each other.
Can we leave it all behind?
Are we willing to let go of everything else and be fully present with each other?
Can we leave it all behind?
Are we willing to let go of everything else and be fully present with each other?
