Bio

Robb Ventura and Ron van Beats started making music together in late 2004. Both writing and rapping their lyrics in Dutch, they felt the need to rap over their own beats. They taught themselves how to produce their own, cutting up 70’s soul samples and putting drum loops over them. The simple music software they used at first would later turn into crate digging, vinyl sampling and hitting the pads of SP’s and MPC’s. They started recording tracks at home and after that almost a decade of making music and a whole lot of fun performing live on stage went by.

In early 2014 the duo decided a change had to be made if they wanted to reach more nationalities than their own. The shows they did until then were a great experience and taught them a lot about performing their music live on stage. But the language they were writing their lyrics and rapping in was not international enough. They agreed to switch to English to try and reach the world.

DJ Jack da Spinner’s love for HipHop began in 1997 at the young age of seven. He received a discman with a number of oldschool HipHop cd’s and was hooked, trying rapping, beatboxing and breakdancing for about five years. Watching his idol DJ QBert scratch for the first time, he realized this was his real calling and started purchasing records and scratching on vinyl. Creating a collection for himself, he started producing beats as well, destroying needles and smashing the pads on his MPC at the same time.

In the late summer of 2014 Robb Ventura, Ron van Beats and DJ Jack da Spinner performed live on stage together for the first time. Knowing each other for quite some time and impressed by each other's skills and mindstate, they combined their talents as the trinity THE ARBEES.
