The Lab NYC is Mixmag and WAV's weekly live stream and post-work unwind, powered by Void Acoustics, where we showcase the finest DJs direct from our Brooklyn office. This Thursday, August 23, Rotterdam-based artist Eelke Kleijn showcases his grand, melodic and deeply emotive sound.

Since emerging during the early 2000s, Eelke Kleijn has continued to make a lasting mark on dance music by showcasing captivating and progressive material. He's released two albums, numerous originals and a wide array of remixes on esteemed record labels such as Eskimo, Toolroom, Suara, Ultra, EMI and Spinnin', as well as his very own label, DAYS like NIGHTS. Plus his third album is set to arrive in November.

He has been named a BBC Radio 1 ‘Next Hype’ act for his track ‘Stand Up’ and is regularly tapped to produce music for Hollywood film trailers, including for Parker, Wrath Of The Titans, This Means War and not least Ron Howard’s Rush. When he's outside the studio he's touring the global club circuit, making regular stops in the UK, Argentina, Australia, the Netherlands and more. This year he'll make his debut at Burning Man, playing Playaskool, Kashba Lounge at Playground and a big art project that has yet to be announced. Having Eelke Kleijn grace the intimate setting of The Lab NYC is certainly a special moment.

In my heaven there's house music and pineapples.

“Ever since Cicatrix, whose real name is Ilan Y. Kupers (The Netherlands, 1982) was a kid, he has always been in love with music which isn’t quite so extraordinary given the fact that his Mum was a secretary for Phonogram Records and his Dad produces an internal radio show for several hospitals in the area of Amsterdam. Whether it was taping the latest tunes on the radio or TV or making his own little radio show for an imaginary crowd, Ilan has always had music running through his veins.
Back in 2008, he finally managed to buy his own set of decks to practise mixing and started performing on local stations and at the infamous yet intimate Quest4Trance parties, as well as spinning alongside the likes of Misja Helsloot, Dazzle, RAM, Ron van den Beuken and Marc Simz. Furthermore, Cicatrix has done guestmixes on D.U.T.C.H. Radio (http://www.dutch-radio.nl ) and Radiovolum.no for world famous DJ's such as Andy Duguid and Lemon & Einar K.

Nowadays, it's anything but trance that defines Ilan's mixing; a fine blend of deephouse, tech house and techno is what's it's all about. This has brought him to play amongst Remy, Secret Cinema & Sandrien!

House, funk, nu-disco & techno lover.  Just here to repost some bomb music and share the love. <3
