About MOGUAI

Since the beginning of his career in Germany, MOGUAI has worked outside the parameters that are often set around other artists.

Number 1 hits, global headline tours, gold and double platinum awards for highly acclaimed releases are all part and parcel of the life of André Tegeler. Over the course of a wildly successful career so far, his amazing talent and a combination of pioneering endeavors in the studio, spellbinding DJ sets and live shows have given MOGUAI deserved worldwide fame and recognition. From this an immensely devoted and diverse global fan base has arisen, ever eager to experience what this dance music legend has in store as he looks to break the mould that is the common perception of electro artists in his always-unique fashion.

Two highly acclaimed artist albums, ‘We Are Lyve’ (2010) and ‘Mpire’
