DJ Hell (real name Helmut Josef Geier, born in Altenmarkt an der Alz on September 6, 1962) is a German House/Techno DJ. He is the label boss of International DeeJay Gigolo Records and has been responsible for many of the big records to come out of the Electroclash or German Squelch scene that emerged in Berlin in the mid-nineties.
He is seen as the musical initiator of the 80s Revival movement later known as Electroclash popularizing the music from his hometown Munich from the mid to late 90s. In 2006, DJ Hell was involved in a German Intel promotional campaign involving five renowned demogroups (Andromeda Software Development, Conspiracy, Fairlight, Farbrausch and mfx), who were set out to create 30-second demos using remixed versions of a DJ Hell track.
DJ Hell's Hit single Keep On Waiting was produced using samples as a basic track from a song titled Blurb by a New York based group known as Intense Molecular Activity. IMAs 4 track EP was released in 1980 on an independent label.
