Decoded Presents Funk D'Void

LFU in short: En route from rock, electronic disco, early Hip-Hop, New Jack Swing and late 80s Deep House, Leo encounters the overwhelming rave sound of Human Resource's "Dominator" on a night out. When he hears "Charlie" from Prodigy a few weeks later, he's over. Hip-Hop becomes much more aggressive during that time while house radiates nothing more than love and togetherness; perfect! 

Especially in the Utrecht house scene, Leo is doing his bit along with his DJ friends. Besides his work as manager of record store Mid-Town Utrecht, he is one of Shiva's resident DJs; the first House club of Utrecht (now Basis). He plays at many parties, at the legendary RoXY and shows his DJ practices abroad. In addition, he regularly goes into the studio to make records with friends. 

Nowadays Leo works at record store Killacutz in Amsterdam and he has started his own record label: 'Casa Meganika'.

In a saturated and cloned dance music market, it is becoming all too common to merely emulate, rather than stand out, be unique and create memorable music. Our passion for timeless, creative and intimate music allows us to  filter through to the artists we invite to join Decoded Magazine We do not look for just anyone, we are looking for people who create memorable music that inspires and invokes emotion, rather than be disposable chart topping hits and mixes.

We support and nurture underground house, progressive, techno, deep house, minimal, breaks, electronic, drum and bass music.

We live in a world of mass media consumerism, yet never tell a story. Never in the history of mankind, has so much information been available, yet our voices are never heard. Decoded Magazine aims to deliver thought provoking, intelligent journalistic articles that affect the generations who are passionate about electronic music, fashion, lifestyle, industry news, interviews, travel, food and breaking new emerging talent beyond the dance floor. We provide ethical, provoking and humorous content to a global audience.

We are a collective of professional marketing managers, print & web designers, recording artists, journalists, label owners, DJs, social media marketers, event promoters, music publishers and more. It is a labour of love for us, it is a passion that runs deep, a feeling of taking back control of an industry we love and so heavily invest in with our own personal lives. We are not grandstanding, we are not thinking we are going to change the world overnight, but we do hope that we can slowly be a game changer in what people listen to, explore or experience.
