DCX was originally founded in 1997 by producers Joel Kalsi and Ari Myllymäki, and the band performed under different pseudonym DC-10. The band's biggest track was Joel's scoring of "Flying High", which gained a number of listeners world wide in values of seven digits!In 2005 Joel reproduced "Flying High" and the name was changed to DCX, to represent the roman number 10 and also to leave a mark pointing towards the "ex-project". Ari continued as a producer with Joel in the new setup, but doesn't take part on the actual band itself. During the years Joel had been working on live gigs at tv-shows with Olli, so it was natural to invite Olli to play on stage as a DCX keyboardist. Through Olli's singer roster the crew also found Katri, the lead singer of DCX.
The first DCX gig was a direct TV live show, and soon more bookings started flooding in. The first release "Flying High" went #1 on the Finnish Club Chart and 4 weeks in a row at #1 position on the Finnish Disco Chart, where it stayed for a total of 48 weeks!
DCX approached ABBA, the biggest influence to Disco music ever, in order to have a permission for releasing a cover version of "Knowing Me, Knowing You". It took several months to get the permission but after it was cleared, the band announced news about music video, which has been shot in Oulu, Tampere, Riga, Berlin, London, Barcelona and Montserrat. The video was released in full HD format in June 2007.
The crew has performed aside with numerous big names like Vinyl Shakerz, Akcent, Natural Ex, Groove Coverage, September, Ian van Dahl, Basic Element, Basshunter, Fragma, Tina Cousins to name a few!
The band is is releasing their debut album "Flying High" in late 2007, which is said to have only single releases from beginning to end! The fifth single from the album is out in October, entitled "Don't Break My Heart".
