Global Deejays, Global Playboyz or Ravers on Dope are an Austrian tech house DJ team composed of DJ Taylor (Konrad Schreyvogl) and FLOw (Florian Schreyvogl). Their first three singles were big hits in Europe.
The group's track "The Sound of San Francisco" partially samples the 1967 (The Summer of Love) song "San Francisco (Be Sure to Wear Flowers in Your Hair)" sung by Scott McKenzie. The video includes scenes of the band in a decorated school bus driving through popular destinations.
In 2005 the Global Deejays won both the Russian MTV Energy Award and the Polish ESKA Award.
In 2008 DJ Mikkel (Mikkel Christensen) left the team.
January 26, 2009 saw the remixed version of the group's "Everybody's Free (To Feel Good)" debut on the Australian ARIA Charts at number 33 (eventually hitting #7).
