CLANG presents DepGlobe Live at Café Schuim 18-10-2017 Amsterdam NES078

A Darker Wave: - "Frederique has an amazing feel for sound dynamics and a great ear for building tracks. So melodic, so much feeling as he puts his mixes together. He's not afraid of quieter sounds, and contrasts those with louder parts and makes it work really well."

Excerpt -
The darker side of House, with the occasional smile. The music that I mix should grab me somehow, make me want to move my body, nod my head, tap my feet, at least engage me, or even make me dance. Most of it is in the bassline, and the harmony. I'm not looking for something new by definition, but I'm open for anything that's different. I'm a sucker for melancholy, darkness and mystery.

In the beginning there was Jack -
I have been DJing since the 90's. Learned it on vinyl, SL1200's and a Dateq LPM 7.2. All very straight forward gear for today's standard, but high quality stuff nevertheless. I embraced digital when it matured, went from an S4 to a DDJ-T1, and an S8 now, connected to a Yamaha A-S500 that drives my wonderful Monitor Audio RX2 speakers. I have no musical education or history.

Why -
I DJ for the fun, the love of the music. For the kicks. To unwind at the end of a hard working day. I've been recording mixes on a regular basis since mid 2015, uploading a mixes at least once a month on Soundcloud.

.1k Series Mixes -
Most of the music that I use in my sets comes from artists that I follow on Soundcloud and Beatport. Finding music like this does result in the best mixes to my ears, but it takes a lot of time. With a regular (no 925) daytime job, a wife and two daughters, time is sometimes scarce. To overcome this, I recently started what I call the ".1k Series". In this series, I mix selections from top-100 (".1k" .. 1/10th * 1000 = 100 - I know it should be written as k1, but the association with the fighting sport was too obvious for me) lists released by well known digital outlets. I scan through these lists and select those tracks that comply the first paragraph above. These series will generally produce more accessible-to-listen-to mixes and so they will likely attract the less experienced listeners.

Reminder Series Mixes -
There is so many good music today, and there is so many new music every day, that music is quickly forgotten. I truly think that's a shame, and I've been wanting to do something with this for a long time. These mixes are mostly made on the fly, where I select tracks that 'just fit' at that moment, and where track age is of no importance. This means that mixes in this series can contain tracks of any date, but usualy somewhere between 2008 and current time.

Dark Series Mixes -
The darker sounds of House are my favorite by far. In these series of mixes I focus on those sounds exclusively.

You -
If you decide to listen to one of my mixes here, have a little patience. Don't skip through the mixes. Put one on, and let it work you(r) (mind). Download any mix on this page in high quality 320kbps MP3 format. All mixes should be downloadable - if they're not, let me know and I'll fix it.

Indulge your senses and embark on a tantalizing sonic adventure with DepGlobe!

🌟 Booking through No Ego Events: Reach out to the musical virtuoso himself at hilbrand@nee.nu and prepare to be swept off your feet.

Imagine a young DepGlobe, just 8 years old, whose world revolved around the enchanting Dutch radio shows like "The Rock and Roll Method." In the blink of an eye, he became an ardent disciple of musical legends such as Gene Vincent, Elvis, and The Beatles. The year 1981 witnessed his first affair with vinyl ecstasy, a 12" single that none other than New Order's "Everything's Gone Green." But his musical journey was far from ordinary, for luminaries like Patrick Cowley and Giorgio Moroder had already begun weaving their enigmatic influence into his soul during the early '80s.

Fast forward to 1983, when a fire was ignited within DepGlobe, thanks to the trailblazing Ben Liebrand. He embarked on a thrilling odyssey, crafting his own magnetic mixes with a "cut and paste" finesse that ignited high school parties, and soon, the DJ decks at student gatherings. Between 1998 and 2003, he unveiled a symphonic tapestry across three different genres: ClubSession 1-7, GlobalTrance 1-6. But the evolution didn't stop there. Influenced by the likes of John Creamer, Stephane K, Lemon8, and Deep Dish, he birthed his Massive Progressive Series 1-6, generously sharing his sonic creations among his closest friends.

As the years unfurled, DepGlobe's musical persona crystallized into the breathtaking realm of Progressive. Yet, his favorite tracks remain a delightful enigma—progressive techno, pure progressive, techno, tech house, or deep house? Since 2011, DepGlobe's musical magic has graced the digital airwaves of SoundCloud. Following the release of his mesmerizing Lowlands Series, he inaugurated "DepGlobe's NoEgo Sounds" in November 2011. His charismatic presence resonates on the frequencies of United Radio, InsomaniaFM, Frisky Radio, and several other radio shows, not to mention electrifying gigs at pulsating Techno and Deep House soirées.

Today, he's the mastermind behind unforgettable parties and festivals, and as the visionary founding father of the epic Hartstocht Festival, his musical odyssey continues to set hearts and dance floors ablaze. Don't miss your chance to be part of this irresistible journey into sound with DepGlobe!
