Van mixtapes tot mainstage – mijn reis als DJ

Als kleine jongen was ik al verslingerd aan dancemuziek. Elke donderdag zat ik klaar voor de legendarische Ferry Maat Soulshow, met de taperecorder stand-by om geen seconde te missen. Muziek zat er vroeg in – het draaien begon toen ik vaak te vinden was bij Locomotion in Zoetermeer. De vaste DJ daar, Jack Henneken, zag mijn passie en gaf me de kans om te leren. Als de club net open was, mocht ik de draaitafels even overnemen om te oefenen. Dat waren de eerste stappen achter de decks.

Toch moest ik op een gegeven moment kiezen: topsport en lange nachten in de club gingen niet samen. Maar mijn liefde voor muziek is altijd gebleven.

Vandaag de dag draai ik VOL op  – met mijn eigen professionele DJ-setup en een sound die staat als een huis. Ik verzorg sets op allerlei evenementen: van strandfeesten en bruiloften tot bedrijfsevents en clubs. Elke gig is uniek, maar één ding blijft hetzelfde: ik breng de energie, het ritme en de sfeer die jouw event onvergetelijk maakt.

From mixtapes to mainstage – my journey as a DJ

As a little boy, I was already addicted to dance music. Every Thursday I was ready for the legendary Ferry Maat Soulshow, with the tape recorder on standby so I wouldn’t miss a second. Music was something I got into early – I started spinning when I was often found at Locomotion in Zoetermeer. The resident DJ there, Jack Henneken, saw my passion and gave me the chance to learn. When the club had just opened, I was allowed to take over the turntables for a while to practice. Those were the first steps behind the decks.

At some point, I had to choose: top-level sport and long nights in the club didn’t go together. But my love for music has always remained.

Today, I’m spinning again – with my own professional DJ setup and a sound that’s rock solid. I provide sets at all kinds of events: from beach parties and weddings to corporate events and clubs. Every gig is unique, but one thing remains the same: I bring the energy, the rhythm and the atmosphere that makes your event unforgettable.

From Deep House to Old Skool. All types of quality house including soulful, deep, vocal, tech, downtempo/chill + oldskool/rave. CloudStream.

James Curd began his DJing career in Chicago when he was only fifteen years old. Being underage, Curd was snuck into events to play at raves and clubs he was not legally allowed in. He played along side some of electronic music’s most respected acts and DJs. Through his love of DJing and music Curd began to write and produce for himself. At nineteen Curd released his first track on the globally respected label “Basenotic” out of Paris. From there Curd created “Greenskeepers”, a name to represent himself and the wide range of music he wrote and the artists he collaborated with.

As “Greenskeepers” Curd released an array of music on Classic records. He made his mark on the dance music world by infusing swing music and Chicago house to invent the term G-Swing, being short for Greenskeepers Swing. Curd focused on G-Swing and started a label by that same name to feature this unique sound. Around this same time Curd also owned and operated two other record labels “Igloo” and “Greenskeepers Music”.

Curd has released four full length albums under Greenskeepers, “Ziggy Franklin Radio Show”, “Pleetch”, “Polo Club” and “Live Like You Want To Live”.

His music can also be found in foreign films as well as main stream movies such as “What Happens In Vegas”,”The Vow” and the hugely successful animation “The Incredibles”. If you listen carefully, you will even find Curd’s work on BBC documentaries and American Airlines inflight radio!
