Music has always been an important part of my life. From a young age, I’ve been creating fun playlists, especially during my time working in a club. It’s almost magical how the right tracks can change the energy in a room.

In 2023, I decided to focus on gathering the perfect tracks to play, inspired by various DJs and the music I love to hear at clubs or festivals. After getting the right equipment, I began mixing different genres. Pop house, tech house and circuit house, are truly my favorites!

Lately, I’ve learned so much about the profession. What started as a passion is slowly growing into a significant part of my life. I can't wait to see where this journey takes me.

Ian was born and raised in Rotterdam, The Netherlands. Ian’s interest in music was apparent at a early age as he would play with his grandfathers harmonica. His liking to the harmonica was contributed to the many years of his grandfather playing it. His musical interest, at the age of twelve, lead him to start playing with two cassette players and start recording live sets mixed only by using the record and pause button. Onto the age of fourteen were Ian started to DJ at local events and at his school. From the money earned at these events he was able to purchase himself a proper mixer and turntables.

At the age of eighteen he bought his first sampler an Akai S700. Combine that with an Atari computer and a Roland 505 drum computer he started to make simple house music. Working with what he presently had was inspiring Ian to dedicate more time in the process of musical compositions.

He started to produce background music for several companies and that open the door for him to work at a radio station in the evenings. He was starting to work with famous singers in the Netherlands. Working with the singers was giving him the stimulation he wanted to receive in the musical field.

Onto the age of 486 pc Computer where Ian purchased one with a Gravis soundcard to make his first mixes which were going to be released. It has been no looking back since then, of course he has upgraded since the 486 but the man that won the Michael Jackson mega-mix never learned to play any traditional instruments. Utilizing his computers to the fullest ability.
