About
Dario G were an English dance music group formed in Cheshire, England, consisting of three DJs and producers – Scott Rosser, Paul Spencer, and Stephen Spencer (no relation to Paul) – and vocalist Ingfrid Straumstøyl. The group rose to prominence in the late 1990s following the release of their debut single "Sunchyme", which reached number two in the United Kingdom, Scotland, Denmark and Switzerland. It reached number one on the US Billboard Bubbling Under Hot 100 charts, as well as reaching number one in Hungary and on the US Dance Club Songs chart.
The group released their debut album Sunmachine in 1998 and issued a further two singles from the album – "Carnaval de Paris" and "Sunmachine". Following the release of the album, members Rosser and Stephen Spencer departed to pursue other projects, leaving Paul Spencer to continue under the Dario G name as a solo act. In 2000, Dario G recorded the song "Voices", which featured on the soundtrack to the 2000 film The Beach.
In 2000, "Dream to Me" was released as the lead single from their second studio album, In Full Colour, with Straumstøyl debuting on lead vocals. "Dream to Me" reached number one in Romania, number four in Scotland, and number nine in the United Kingdom and Germany. Following a period of moderate chart success, Paul Spencer died in June 2024 following a diagnosis of stage four rectal cancer in 2023.
