PvD is renowned as one of the hardest working artists, with sold-out tours that cross each continent, headline spots at every major festival, and a hugely successful recording career. With over 3 million albums sold worldwide, van Dyk travels around the world over 16 times each year to sold out performances internationally. 2007 alone has brought us PvD remixes of Depeche Mode’s “Martyr”, Britney Spears’ „Gimmy more“ and Justin Timberlake’s “What Goes Around.... Comes Around”.
PvD received a Grammy nomination in 2005 for Best Dance/Electronic Album for his original album Reflections – this marked the first time NARAS recognized this category. His original productions from Reflections have been synced into major motion pictures such as Into the Blue, Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants, television’s Entertainment Tonight and MTV’s Cribs, and international ad campaigns for Motorola, HBO, Land Rover, Ski Vail and most recently for Jeep. This year he won the International Dance Music Award (IDMA) for Best Euro DJ.
Previously, PvD won four IDMAs in 2006: Best Global DJ, Best NuNRG/Euro Track, Best Producer and Best Mix Compilation for The Politics of Dancing 2. In addition, PvD was voted “America’s Favorite DJ” for 2004 and 2005 by BPM Magazine and was the big winner at the 2004 Dancestar Awards, taking home 3 awards: Best International DJ, Best Event and Best Music in a Commercial (Motorola). He also won the Mexican Oscar for his soundtrack in the film Zurdo in March 2004. Paul van Dyk was voted "Best Music Maker" by DJ Magazine, received the “Best International DJ Award” at the 1999 Music Awards in London, was named "Best International DJ" by Ministry of Sound Magazine, and Mixmag elected him as “Man of the Year”.
Aside from his musical activity, Paul van Dyk has always dedicated a significant part of his life to politics and social justice: from his youth, when he fled over the Berlin Wall to the West, to his children’s charity in India’s Mumbai, and his partnership scheme with the German Red Cross to help poor children in Berlin. In 2004, PvD was the only electronic artist involved in a nationwide tour with the Rock The Vote campaign, where he joined the likes of Bono, P Diddy, the Black Eyed Peas and George Clinton in campaigning for America’s youth to sign up to vote in the presidential election. In 2006 he received Berlin’s Medal of Honor (Landesverdienstorden) in recognition of his work with Ruckenwind, a charity organization he founded dedicated to helping poor children in Berlin. He joins a distinguished list of arts and political establishment figures with this honor.
Born in Eisenhüttenstadt, East Germany, Paul van Dyk grew up in communist East Berlin. Because his community did not have a true club culture, Paul van Dyk listened to the radio where he discovered his passion for music that extended beyond Techno music – he wanted to create a different, more unique sound. In the early 1990’s Paul van Dyk was spinning regularly at various clubs in Berlin before releasing his first album 45 RPM in 1994. But it wasn’t until the release of his second album Seven Ways which catapulted him into the Top 100, followed by the release of his hit single “For An Angel,” which began to earn him praise across the globe. By the time Paul van Dyk released Out There & Back in 2000, it became clear that the Berlin-based musician had far more to offer than his signature club sets and remixes that had already defined him as one of the most influential DJs and producers of all time. His first compilation mix CD Politics of Dancing was released in 2001, followed by Global in 2003 – a DVD which illustrates his own experiences traveling the world.
Paul van Dyk created the internet radio station VONYC.com focused on the electronic dance scene.
Paul van Dyk’s touring diary remains incredibly hectic with regular globetrotting stops at major venues across the globe from New York, London, Ibiza to India, China and Singapore. In the little time remaining between all the travel, Paul van Dyk resides in Berlin where he has his own radio show “Paul van Dyk’s VONYC Sessions” which airs weekly on Area 33 on Sirius Radio on Thursday nights at 6PM ET (and rebroadcasts Saturdays at 8PM ET and Tuesdays at Midnight ET) and Soundgarden which airs every Saturday 2pm – 4pm (EST) on Fritz radio and over the internet (www.fritz.de).

Paul Van Dyk Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
It blows my mind
It blows my mind
It blows my mind
It blows my mind
Smash the stained glass windows of this world
And so we throw stones to the sky trying to
Smash the stained glass windows of this world
And so we throw stones to the sky trying to
Smash the stained glass windows of this world
And so we throw stones to the sky trying to
Smash the stained glass windows of this world
And so we throw stones to the sky trying to
Smash the stained glass windows of this world
It blows my mind
It blows my mind
It blows my mind
The lyrics of Paul van Dyk's song Another Sunday portray a sense of frustration with the state of the world and the desire to break free from societal constraints. The repetition of the phrase "it blows my mind" suggests the overwhelming feeling of disbelief and astonishment at the world's current state. The imagery of throwing stones and smashing stained glass windows is a symbol of rebellion and resistance against the traditional structures that govern society.
The use of stained glass windows symbolizes the beauty and complexity of the world that is often hidden behind a façade of conventional norms and values. By smashing these windows, the artist is suggesting that it is necessary to break away from societal expectations in order to truly see the world for what it is. The repetition of the phrase "and so we throw stones to the sky" implies a collective effort in this desire for change and a willingness to take action, even if it means breaking away from the norm.
Overall, the lyrics convey a sense of frustration, but also a glimmer of hope for a revolution and a desire for change. The repetitive nature of the song's chorus emphasizes the overwhelming feeling of anger and a desire for something more.

Moin Paul!
ich möchte mich einfach Mal für deine schöne Musik bedanken!
Ich höre sie ständig im Alltag:
Ob mit Kopfhörer nachts durch den Blick meines Teleskop um Sterne, Galaxien, planetarische Nebel etc. zu beobachten, auf der Couch zum entspannen, beim Auto fahren, duschen, beim Hausputz oder wenn Freunde zu Besuch sind.
Deine Musik ist einfach fantastisch und hat mich schon sehr oft durch schwierige Situationen in meinem Leben begleitet.
Deine Musik fühlt man einfach extrem, kann ich nicht in Worte fassen.
Du machst einfach alles richtig und man merkt jedes Mal mit wie viel Liebe, Hingabe und Leidenschaft deine Musik machst.
Für mich bist du der beste Musik überhaupt.
Mach bitte immer weiter so gut es geht!
Gruß aus Rheine im Münsterland!
René
