Based in Antwerp (Belgium)
Melodic House & Techno
I started in the beginning of the 80ies, calculating BPMs of all the music I heard with a stopwatch. At the age of 11, I had my first radio show called "de mixpauze", mixing vinyl records. We made loops with a tape recorder, a cutter knife, and scotch tape. We used adapted "direct start" cassettes to make samples. From my 16 I played at birthday parties and from my 18 also in bars. I stopped djing when I started my business career and picked it back up when I became 40, only playing at private parties. To celebrate my birthday, I developed an off-grid DJ booth that fits in a backpack and runs on powerbanks. I travel to beautiful and often difficult-to-reach locations where no power is available. I'm also a music search maniac. I wrote Python code that automatically creates a personal playlist with releases from the past week in Spotify. I listen to thousands of new tracks every month. The best ones are added to my personal library.
