Jeffrey Sutorius is preparing for a new chapter in his career after securing the legal right to perform under the Dash Berlin name once again.
The development follows years of legal disputes and signals the potential return of one of trance music’s most recognizable projects.
Jeffrey Sutorius left Dash Berlin in 2018. Soon after, he entered a legal battle over the rights to the name.
The dispute was fought against former members Sebastiaan Molijn and Eelke Kalberg.
For a short period in 2019, Sutorius regained the rights to the brand name. That victory did not last.
The legal situation later shifted, leading him to perform and release music under his own name from 2021 onward.
That chapter appears to have changed following a January 2026 ruling by the Court of Appeals in The Hague.
The decision granted Sutorius the legal right to use the Dash Berlin stage name again, allowing him to move forward under the brand he helped build.

The Return of Dash Berlin
Several months after the court ruling, Sutorius began hinting at a comeback.
Through social media, he shared a message suggesting that more news would arrive soon.
The post quickly attracted strong support from fans and fellow artists across the trance community.
The reaction highlighted the lasting connection between Sutorius and the Dash Berlin name.
Supportive comments came from prominent trance figures, including Jorn van Deynhoven, Blastoyz, and Myon.
The announcement also generated thousands of interactions, reflecting the anticipation surrounding the project’s future.
Dash Berlin built a global following through a catalog of trance classics, including Man on the Run, Till the Sky Falls Down, and Never Cry Again.
These releases helped establish the act as a major force within the international trance scene over the past two decades.
Now, with the legal dispute largely behind him, Sutorius appears ready to reconnect with that legacy.
His victory marks a significant turning point for the project and opens the door to a new era for Dash Berlin.
As anticipation continues to grow, fans are eagerly waiting to see how Sutorius will shape the next phase of the iconic trance brand.
