For a number of years, Michael worked for the biggest Danish Record Shop – Stereo Studio – gaining a vast knowledge of music. He then managed a small record department at a Hi-Fi store – Expert – for a couple of years. In late 1997 he was asked by his friend LP Støvring to join him in Copenhagen to start up a business. An easy decision really and not many months later he was on his way to the Danish Capitol. After a while he started making good contacts at various clubs and started DJ´ing again. Then things started to roll. A visit to Gatecrasher changed everything. On that tour was the owner of Denmark’s biggest Disco – Diskotek IN. He was very impressed by the music, the crowd and their reaction to the atmosphere as the DJ put on anthem after anthem. After this top experience, the club owner wanted to do something similar in Denmark. When they returned to Denmark Club Gorgeous came on the drawing board and in February 2000 the club opened. Michael was one of the 4 originators behind the famed Club. He has played as a resident there ever since the opening. This has also taken him to Germany and Sweden playing alongside names as Ferry Corsten, DJ Tiesto, Judge Jules, Lange, Mauro Picotto, Johan Gielen, DJ Tandu and many more. Since the start of the club all of the other residents have made music. The most successful being Michael Parsberg, who scored a major hit with Safri Duo. All this made Splint want do more than just DJ´ing – there is rarely something better than playing something you’ve made yourself and see the reaction of the crowd. He sat down thinking of ideas for tracks and hooked up with Danish Trance act Tukan/F&W to help him produce. The first thing they did together was Airbase – Genie, which already was signed to Alphabet City.
