As we roar towards another summer of festival madness, Markus Schulz has been named by global dance promoters Godskitchen as its official ‘festival resident’ of 2009.

The tip of the hat by Godskitchen is yet another achievement in a long line of accolades that the Miami-based trance DJ has received recently. In October he came 8th in DJ Magazine’s Top 100 DJs poll, in March he was crowned Best American DJ in the IDMAs, and his forthcoming LP ‘Thoughts Become Things’, which he produced under his progressive alias Dakota, is already garnering attention from the press.

Schulz will take over eight festival and arena dates this summer for Godskitchen, which means he will only visit Ibiza four times this summer.

Speaking from his studio in Miami, Markus Schulz said, “It was a pretty tough decision to make as Ibiza plays a very special and an important part of the calendar for me, but after weighing it all up and the fact I’ve played there as resident for so many years, 2009 seemed like the year to try something different. I’ll be pulling out all the stops to ensure my shows in Ibiza this year are super special!”

Fans wanting a shot of Markus in Ibiza should make a note of the following dates and plan ahead. Markus will play on Tuesdays at Amnesia on June 30th, August 4th, August 25th and September 15th.
