Jean is distinctive and overloaded with multiple awards, such as the SENA Award, an award for most played Club DJ on Dutch radio in the past ten years, he has been voted as BEST CLUB DJ for several times ! On top of that, he recently, late in 2009, received the very prestigious SLAM FM Ouvre Award!  There are also numerous nominations at big Award shows like the TMF AWARDS and SILVER STAR DANCE in the UK . AND BY THE WAY, LETS NOT FORGET HE IS THE MOST BOOKED DJ, ‘EVER’, IN THE NETHERLANDS.
