Mesmerizing Events & Sets from local DJ talent

Bio
Having produced one of the biggest records of 2009 (‘Kamouflage loves Fred remix’ of Massive Attack’s ‘unfinished sympathy’, in collaboration with True Identity), Philip Young has made himself a well respected dj and producer in the international dance scene. Number one at DECKS.DE for weeks and played by Karotte, Wighnomy Brothers, Dixon, Ame, Tania Vulcano, 2000 and one, Michel de Hey and many more.
Philip Young was born in 1982 in the Suburbs of Amsterdam. As a young boy he was inspired by Jamiroquai, Stevie Wonder, Lenny Kravitz and Prince. Later in clubs he cribbed the tricks of the trade from House legends such as Dimitri, Laurent Garnier Daft Punk, Sven Vath, Henrik Schwarz and Richie Hawtin. After a few years of being on the dance floor Philip decided it was his time to be behind the decks. Soon, after a couple years of spinning, Ibiza’s El Divino offered him a residency that lasted through the summers of 2005 and 2006. Many residencies followed. Nowadays, he’s part of the successful concept and club night Click, together with well known techno DJ’s Paul Ritch, Slam, Joris Voorn and Shinedoe.
Philip’s style is an energetic integral of house and Techno. He loves to spin for hours, long DJ sets where he lets the audience hear and feel his unique style of deep mixes with lots of variety. And it works! He has been spinning the wheels at national festivals for years. In 2009 alone, he played over 10 festivals, like Welcome to the Future, Mysteryland (his fourth time in a row) Sensation, Loveland and many more.
Moreover, he’s been booked in every major Dutch club: Like Studio 80, Westerunie, Paradiso, Winkel van Sinkel, Effenaar, Melkweg, you name it. Also internationally Philip Young’s style is appreciated. He has visited Paris (Red Light), Antwerp (Café D’Anvers) and Barcelona’s Sonar Festival for several gigs.  Today spending time in the studio, is a big part of Philip’s career. With several releases on the Dutch label 90 Watts Records, including remixes by Gimikk, David Labeij and Wouter de Moor and a remix for the internationally know label Rebirth, he has become a serious producer. And with huge support from Richie Hawtin for his last track with VMH called ‘I Don’t Want To Win’, Philip Young is being plugged by big shots all over the world.
In September 2010, again in collaboration with True Identity, Philip will release a track called ‘Save Me’ on the big Spanish label SURUBA. It will be part of their compilation vol. 3, amongst Tigerskin, Robert Babicz, Gorge and many more! The near future also holds collaborations with Arjuna Schiks (Traum) and Marcus Gehring (Upon You). So one thing’s for sure: there will be plenty of ‘Philip Young’ to listen to this year!

Rush Hour / Perlon / Dekmantel

San Proper is a very strong character, and that always rubs off in his many musical endeavours. He is a famously unpredictable DJ who lays down party starting sets of house and disco, electro, afro and acid. He is also a charismatic live performer who places his own vocals and instrument playing skills at the centre of his show, whilst various bits of hardware and digital toys flesh out the grooves. And lastly, he is also an esteemed producer of often feral house and techno sounds on quality labels like Rush Hour, Perlon and Dekmantel.

🎧 KAISMO – Anyplace, anywhere, any timeslot

Born and raised in Amsterdam with Finnish roots, KAISMO brings an adaptive and genre-fluid approach to the decks. His sets are rooted in electronic music, weaving together groovy House, soulful Disco House, rhythmic Afro House, Indie Dance, and Progressive House, with the occasional unexpected hit to light up the crowd.

With years of experience playing everything from weddings to underground house parties, from Bar LELY residencies to high-energy moments at Amsterdam Pride and Kingsday, KAISMO knows how to read a room and move it. His musical journey started in the most unexpected places: a debut club set in a Finnish gay club, which evolved into a versatile DJ style that adapts to the moment without ever losing its spark.

Whether it’s an intimate gathering or a full-blown party, KAISMO creates sets that are curated, surprising, and above all, deeply danceable.
