DKay.com was formed by Jürgen Engler after the initial split of Die Krupps in 1997.
Some of the ideas on this album were heavily inspired by German band Die Krupps and this is borne out by Fad Gadget's later album Gag which features Einstürzende Neubauten, who worked closely with Die Krupps.

Entering the Arena is the third album by the German industrial/EBM band Die Krupps.
This sound palette was pioneered by early 1980s artists (SPK, Einstürzende Neubauten, Die Krupps and Test Dept), who relied heavily on metal percussion, generally made with pipes, tubes and other products of industrial waste.
The first team was formed by the successful American producers and musicians Jimmy Harry and Fred Maher, the second team by former members of the German industrial rock band Die Krupps Jürgen Engler and Chris Lietz, who had already collaborated on Doro’s previous album Machine II Machine and to the following EP of remixes.
She has also worked with Volbeat, William Orbit, Soman, Die Krupps, Pete Doherty, Douglas McCarthy, Gary Numan, Ian Broudie, Martin Gore, Sacha Distel, Tim Burgess, Carl Barât, Robert Görl, bandmate Chris Wilkie on non-Dubstar projects, Moonbootica, and Mark Nevin of Fairground Attraction, among others.
During those years, Tinner produced there many artists and bands, such as Maloo, KFC, Joachim Witt, Trio, Traffic, Holger Czukay, Die Krupps, Floyd George, Julian Dawson, Marius Müller-Westernhagen, Helen Schneider, Fury in the Slaughterhouse, Jule Neigel Band, Kreisler, amongst others.
