Dag Krister Volle (26 April 1963 – 30 August 1998), better known as Denniz Pop (stylized Denniz PoP), was a Swedish DJ, music producer, and songwriter. He was a member of the DJ collective SweMix and later co-founded the recording studio Cheiron Studios in Stockholm in 1992.
Volle met the Nigerian-Swedish singer Dr. Alban while they were both DJing, and in 1990, he produced his debut single, "Hello Afrika", and the subsequent eponymous album, which were released under the SweMix label. In 1992, he left SweMix and together with music investor Tom Talomaa, founded Cheiron Studios in Stockholm; the next year, he recruited Max Martin. In the following years, he co-produced and co-wrote songs for several successful Swedish and foreign artists, including Leila K, 3T, Ace of Base, Backstreet Boys, Britney Spears, *NSYNC, E-Type, Robyn, and 5ive.
In an interview, Volle said that he took the name "Denniz" from the Dennis the Menace comic book and then added "pop" to it.
In 2016, he was inducted into the Swedish Music Hall of Fame.
