We were completely satisfied about his performance, with positive reactions from the audience and a good turnover at the bar.
As a DJ, he puts so much effort into his work. This really pays out.
Impressive what you managed to learn in only one year.
On the District Steel game score: “It’s fresh with a good atmosphere”
Back in the Days...
Music always came natural to me. listening to all the classics, from symphonic rock to cheesy pop, it just moved me. When I was about 11, I got my first PC. This is where I created my first rudimentary form of music with the so called ‘trackers’. As a result of enthusiasm, My parents let me learn to play the keys of a classic Yamaha keyboard, which was a magical experience. In my early adulthood, I discovered DJ’ing and started throwing parties with my friends at the local youth hangout. Great fun! Still eager to explore, I accepted a friend’s invitation to join a blues band, which was completely new angle on music and a solid base to grow on. In the mean time I also worked with great people, compiling and mixing music for a colourful variety of gigs: shop openings, a beach club, weddings, fashion shows, meditations, belly dance shows, and so on. I was fortunate that my family supported every step of this journey!
The Present
After a successful career as a web developer, I decided to change my course and go all-in for the music. It made sense, because music can touch me deeply and creating fresh moving melodies with dedicated gear gives me total satisfaction. With the completion of the ‘Full Course’ at the Music Production Academy in Rotterdam, my first milestone has been achieved. Now onto the next!
Accomplishments

I have solid knowledge of music theory and an ever growing ability to apply this in a practical way. From concept to a finished arrangement or just mixing: a unique, well balanced sound will be accomplished. Pumping beats & grooves or emotional striking melodies? I love it all!
