From this time forward, DJ Antoine and his studio partner Mad Mark produced four more albums which charted regularly in Switzerland and partly in other European countries. Especially his 2013 released album Sky Is The Limit became a huge commercial success reaching the top of Switzerland's album charts and the Top-10 in Germany. It was certified with a platinum award in Switzerland and a gold award in Germany. Holiday, a collaboration with American singer Akon in 2015, marked the highlight of his 2016 released album Provocateur with chart presence in Switzerland, Germany, Austria, France and Belgium.

Another highlight of his career marks a collaboration with Russian rapper Timati and American singer Kalenna for the hit single Welcome to St. Tropez, which was released in Germany and Austria by the successful German dance label Kontor Records. It became a Top-5-hit in the entire German-speaking room and grew DJ Antoine's popularity in many European countries. His 2012 released single Ma Chérie became the most successful production in his career with more than 1 million units sold, several gold and platinum awards and an MTV European Music Award for Best Swiss Act in 2012. Both singles and another collaboration with P. Diddy, Timati and Dirty Money called I'm On You were a part of his 2011 released and gold-certified album Welcome To DJ Antoine.

DJ Antoine was born in Sissach, Basel-Landschaft. His career officially took off in 1995, when he opened his club, House Café, in the city of Basel. This club was a benchmark for the progress of the musical scene in Basel and its cult-parties are still in fond memories. After a short trip into the Swiss hip hop scene, DJ Antoine quickly switched genre. In 1998, he released his first album "DJ Antoine – The Pumpin' House Mix". In 2001, his album "Houseworks 1" won him his first gold award. After that, things started to move very fast. To this day, DJ Antoine has published just over 50 albums, strongly establishing himself in the music and clubbing scene.
