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.
Locked Out Of Heaven
Dash Berlin Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
'Cause you make me feel like, I've been locked out of heaven
For too long, for too long
Yeah you make me feel like, I've been locked out of heaven
For too long, for too long
I've been locked out of heaven
I've been locked out of heaven
I've been locked out of heaven,
Ven, ven, ven, ven, ven
Ven, ven, ven, ven, ven
Ven, ven, ven, ven
The lyrics of the song "Locked Out Of Heaven" by Dash Berlin and Jonathan Mendelsohn talk about being disconnected from someone they love. The line "I've been locked out of heaven" refers to being away from this person for too long, causing a feeling of emptiness or being "locked out" of the happiness and love that they bring. The repeated line "Yeah you make me feel like, I've been locked out of heaven" highlights how much this person's presence in their life means to them, and how much they miss them when they're not around.
The repetition of the phrase "Ven, ven, ven" at the end of the song is somewhat ambiguous, but could be interpreted as a call to this person to come back to them or to join them where they are. Overall, the lyrics of "Locked Out Of Heaven" express a longing for connection and the joy that comes with being around the person they love.

Al principio creía que Dash Berlín era una persona pero buscando información he descubierto que fue un grupo. Lo que no comprendo es porque se separaron 😔
Bueno, aún así me alegro de oír algo nuevo. Grande Jeffrey Sutorius 😜
