I've started to play drums at the age of three. My orchestral career started in 1982 at the Youth Orchestra of the Music Society Niederheimbach, followed by the start of the professional drum training at the Police Orchestra of Rhineland-Palatinate in 1983. Two years later I became a member of the District Youth Music Orchestra of the Music Society Rhine-Hunsr&ü;ck.
During my membership of 6 years, I've played a lot of concerts, also abroad in Italy, Czech Republic and France, among others.
In the years 1987 - 1990 I've passed several music exams and became instrumental teacher and instructor at the Music Society Rhine-Hunsrück.
In 1993 he joined the Rock Band MADISM. During this time he played successful gigs together with well known German bands like The Crackers, Batchkapp as well as The Spider Murphy Gang and won awards like "German Talentleiter".
From 2005 until 2019, Dirk played the drums at the German Progressive Rock Band NERONIA and appeared on 5 Neronia releases since. After 14 great years and 5 albums Dirk decided to go new musically paths.
From april 2017 until august 2020, Dirk was the man behind the drums at the Gothic Rock Band GODEX. He played several festivals among others at the Gothic Meets Rock Festival, Castle Rock, Herbststurm, etc. and played "The Heartcollector Tour 2017" as support of the Crüxshadows in Germany, the Netherlands and Austria.
In September 2019 Dirk joined the Metal Band AMANTIS.
With "Downfall 2022" and "Lost @ Sea" AMANTIS released the first 2 songs in 2022 after the corona pandemic. More new songs are currently in progress for upcoming recordings. Stay tuned ...

Einmal zur Hölle und wieder zurück! Nicht ganz. 
Das vierer Gespann von Orpheus Lyre gründete sich 2010 und veröffentlichte 2013 ihr selbstbetiteltes Album. 
Stilistisch legen sie sich nur auf das Grundgerüst Metal fest und versuchen stets sich selbst und ihre Fans zu überraschen.
