Artist portrait


We proudly present The Timeline Therapist. The dutch DJ and producer is addicted to music since the age of eleven. What began with rap, hip-hop and scratching ended up in a love for EDM– as a producer and DJ with gigs in the hottest clubs of Holland. Piano lessons improved his knowledge of harmonics. No wonder that he has a faible for chill-out.

The first music he played as a DJ was “swingbeat” because of the groove in it. He did not continue with hip-hop because he is not comfortable with the way hip hop presents itself. “That’s too much ‘look what I got’”, says The Timeline Therapist. He does not like showing off material things. “And it’s just not a music style that is close to my personality”, he sums up.

What is it that links The Timeline Therapist constantly to EDM? “It’s still the feeling I get from listening to it and making it that makes my heart pump a bit faster”, he confesses. There is nothing to add… we all know that feeling, at least in listening to dance music.

So with the time, he has grown into this music. It’s a 100 % living in the “now”, more exactly in the “studio-now”, that flows as inspiration in his tracks. Roaric develops the best production ideas in the studio: “Normally I just go in blank and let it come to me. The tracks that take little time are usually the best”, he says.

The magic in producing is to see, hear and feel how an idea comes to life in the studio, he tells. “That gives sensations that are really strong. Creating music is something special for me. And I think everybody has a piece of music that touches him deep inside.” According to Roaric, a good producer needs perfectionism to some extent and a good deal of perseverance. “Especially in the beginning you will hear more negative than positive feedback. It’s a learning process, so if you just keep investing time, you will get stronger mentally and you will get better.” To be a DJ at the same time is a dream job for Roaric. And spinning records is what this guy is good at. Roaric has played for some of the most prestigious organisations Holland has to offer. With over 25 years of experience he knows how to rock a crowd. When he plays his tracks for music-addicts after working on the pieces for hours in his studio and then seeing people go crazy on it is an unbelievable feeling, he tells.

And who are the heros of Roaric in the EDM-scene? He is impressed by Armin van Buuren, “because he is so down to earth”. He admires Sean Tyas for his production skills. And last but not least his idol is Klaus Schulze: “He is an icon in synthesizer music and definitely a freak when he’s behind his setup”.

It’s clear that Roaric must be a sensitive and powerful man. “Outgoing, easy going and perseverant”.  And that’s in fact the way we got to know him. Absolutely committed to dance music and a perfect team-player.

Reinier Zonneveld Bio
When it comes to stadium-sized techno, Dutch tastemaker Reinier Zonneveld reigns supreme. Over the past 13 years, he’s emerged as one of the Netherlands’ most prolific producers, DJs, event organisers, and label founders. He’s become a beacon for a new generation of ravers, drawn to his fast-paced, bruising beats that fuse the sensibility of techno’s past with the cutting-edge sound design of its future.
But there’s more to Reinier Zonneveld than just a leading producer of acid techno. He’s the founder of the acclaimed Filth On Acid record label, who’s ranked #22 in DJ Mag’s Top 100 DJs and previously the highest new entry of the year, a Guinness World Record holder, an Edison Pop Award winner, and one of the most in-demand live acts in electronic music. Regularly performing in venues with over 25,000 visitors, his live shows have become a benchmark for the modern techno experience, powered by classic machines like the Roland 909, 101, and other synthesizers, which he manipulates in real time to create his signature soundscapes.
Reinier’s reputation as a visionary and pioneer extends far beyond his production. He’s the creative force behind the technologically forward-thinking R² Festival, where he became the first artist in the world to perform back-to-back with his own AI, just trained on his own music, enabling him to experiment with wild new technics on stage while he performs on his synths and drum machines. In 2025, he’ll take this groundbreaking concept even further with a 10-hour AI B2B live performance, featuring a holographic version of himself with real-time audio-visual manipulation — redefining what it means to perform live in the age of AI.
Classically trained on piano from the age of three, Reinier studied econometrics and earned two master’s degrees at Erasmus University in Rotterdam, where his devotion to electronic music first took shape. He began releasing minimal, experimental club cuts in the early 2010s — including ‘Vuur’, ‘Flashers’, ‘Find Muck’, and ‘Remember’ before unveiling his debut album, Reverse Psychology (2013).
By 2015, his sound evolved toward the darker, faster side of techno, showcased on Make Me A Promise and Final Judgement, and cemented with his 2016 album Megacity Servant on Stil vor Talent, featuring the hit ‘Things We Might Have Said’ with Cari Golden. His monumental fourth album Heaven Is Mad (For You) pushed him to new heights, featuring some of his biggest tracks to date — including ‘Dance With The Devil (The 6th Gate)’ (16M+ streams) and ‘Move Your Body To The Beat’ (29M+ streams).
Since founding Filth On Acid in 2017, Reinier has continued to shape the global techno scene, consistently holding the #1 position on Beatport’s techno charts and collaborating with artists ranging from Carl Cox, Speedy J, and Angerfist to Armin van Buuren and Oliver Heldens. Now approaching its 200th release, the label remains synonymous with innovation and quality, balancing underground credibility with global reach.
Recognised as one of the most productive producers in the scene, Reinier has amassed over 83 days’ worth of his own released music, a staggering testament to his creative drive and output. He has also played a pivotal role in shaping the sound and tempo of modern techno, being one of the first artists in the scene since to push BPMs beyond 140 to 145 in the second decade of the year 2000, setting a trend that has defined the genre’s energy since 2018.
In a live setting, Zonneveld is renowned for his marathon performances from a 12-hour set at ADE 2019 to the record-breaking 11-hour, 11-minute show at his own Karren Maar Festival in 2023. His technical mastery, fearless experimentation, and relentless energy continue to redefine the limits of what’s possible in live electronic music.
Reinier Zonneveld stands as one of the most forward-thinking and influential figures in contemporary techno — an artist who continually pushes boundaries, challenges convention, and leads the evolution of the global electronic scene.
