Signum is the combination of two talented producers in the European music industry. They are Pascal Minnaard, (age 29) and Ronald Hagen (also age 29). Both live in Zoetermeer, a little city nearby Hague, their home base in Netherlands.
Pascal & Ron first met each other in high school. This was the place where they found out that they had the same interest in making music, and started to do some work together. Although they lost contact later, they both continued making music.
During that time, Pascal got a record contract at the Dutch label/agency BPM Dance. He made his first track there, under his own name on the label 4-Play (Inside a Rainbow). For his second release ("Flow of Knowledge", "The Other Side", "Adapter"), he started working under the name Signum, under the label "Jinx" from former company BPM Dance.
At this time Pascal met up with Ron again. Ron also signed up with BPM Dance and they started producing together again, not knowing that this will turn out to be a huge success. When they released their first track together, in 1997, under the JINX label, called "What you got for me", the record became a huge club anthem. And with it's re-release in 2001 (on TidyTrax) it even got the nr. 36 position in the UK Top40!!!! "What you got 4 me" turned out to be, what you now call, a true "Trance Classic".
In the mean time, they did a remix for "Travel" called "Bulgarian", which also did well in the club charts and was well received by a lot of Dj's.
Under their own names, Ron Hagen & Pascal M, they did other releases, such as "Forever", "Take U There" and "On Stream".
British producer/DJ Scott Mac was interested in working with Signum. So they teamed up, and out of that collaboration came "Coming On Strong", which also became a huge club hit. This established their name as Trance producers.
