In 1993 Stenzel started his collaboration with DJ Taucher, who had weekly shows at the Music Hall in Frankfurt.

The second single Atlantis (1993: Planet Love Records) is still today considered a classic track within the EDM scene.

Their single 'Fantasy' was licensed to Sony Dancepool, and, surprisingly, it reached a top 50 position in the German media control charts.

Stenzel and Taucher reworked tracks by amongst others Faithless – 'God is a DJ', which in several countries reached a number 1 position in the charts.

It became a fast selling item and after only one week it rose in the German music sales charts onto a number 3 position.

In the German Dance Charts it hit a number 1 position, and additionally received Silver, Gold and Platin records in several European countries.

The second single from the duo – 'Nomansland' featured the melody of an old TV show that Stenzel loved as a child (The Adventures of David Belfort).

He moved to the Spanish Balearic island Ibiza and built a recording studio in his home close to San Jose.

Furthermore, Chris Rea was so positively affected by the conversion – which had sold more copies than the original from 1986 – that he helped promoting the track with a performance in the British 'Top of The Pops' show.

In 2001 Moby's manager contacted him and asked if he would be interested in remixing the new single Porcelain along with Rob Dougan, Futureshock and Force Mass Motion.

[2] In 1999, after a short time in Ibiza, word of mouth spread and the biggest German music channel VIVA sent reporters to interview Stenzel.

Stenzel managed to get his Chillout Productions on the famous Cafe del Mar and Buddha Bar compilations.

During his time in Ibiza, he had his now extremely successful daughter Jamie Lou Stenzel, Au/Ra, who is widely known for her single 'Panic Room'.

Stenzel wrote 5 songs for this album of which 3 – 'The Reign', 'Damned & Divine' and 'Lost Northern Star' – were recorded in Santa Monica at the Remote Control Studios of Academy Award-nominee Hans Zimmer.

He then asked Stenzel if he would be interested in playing keyboard for him as he was just completing new songs for the British girl band All Saints.

Arriving in Antigua in late 2007, Torsten met the movie producer Rolant Hergert through an Antiguan friend.

After the producer heard his work, he replaced the original composer with Stenzel, who wrote the entire soundtrack in Antigua.

[needs update] Late 2011 major Dutch EDM label Armada Music announced that they had joined forces with Torsten's Planet Love Records.

Future plans for Planet Love Records and Armada Music are the release of the next artist album by York and the start of a new chillout compilation series.

Start 2012, Torsten Stenzel and Armada Music released volume 1 of a new compilation of chillout, downtempo, lounge productions.

The Black Hole management announced upcoming new releases via Planet Love Records by acts such as York, Kai Tracid, Steve Brian, Asheni, Jennifer Paige, Deep Voices and Doris Pearson.
