Biography:
====================================

Born in Vienna, DEF Mike is active in the electronic music scene for nearly 20 years now and has experienced many trends in this area. Only late he did decide to work behind the turntables. He developed the right feeling for which music to play to get quickly connected to the party crowd, to inspire them with his sound. Consequently bookings at the best known Viennese clubs followed. 
To enrich the Vienna event scene, DEF Mike also started his own event series called ESESENTIAL. The goal is to connect upcoming international, as well as national DJ acts, to a more music interested party crowd. Playing along with well-known DJs, such as Gramophonedzie, Kruse & Nurnberg, Pirupa, Tony Lionni, Uner, Delano Smith, Evren Ulusoy, Sergio Fernandez, Lee Van Dowski, Adam Port and Mark Reeve (to name only a few), supported by local DJ talents, have turned ESSENTIAL into a popular monthly hotspot. By popular gigs in cities like Chicago, Barcelona, London he was noticeable also abroad - highlights were his gigs at the legendary Barceloneta Beach Party with Audiofly & FACT Artists in June 2013 and also his DJ Set at the famous Flying Circus Party at OFF SONAR 2013. Like any DJ who is into music, DEF Mike began producing his own tracks. It can be observed that his sound is influenced by his preference for deep & tech house with vocal elements and groovy baselines. Actually he is signing with impressive frequency new works and collaborations with prestigious Labels and Djs. Stay tuned on www.def-mike.com!

--- We like FILTH and we do it on ACID NOW ---

Label run by Reinier Zonneveld. 
@reinier-zonneveld

With 9 years in the techno scene, my experience and musical knowledge grew fast. Enthousiastic and outgoing as a dancer, I want to radiate that same energy to the crowd while exploring different subgenres of techno. With a preference for Melodic Techno, Hardgroove and Hard Techno I want to take the crowd on a journey through tracks characterized by melody and hypnotic sounds.
My journey of being a DJ already brought me to places such as Rumba & co (Leuven), Kompass Klub (Gent), Decadance (Gent)...

Enjoy these amazing tracks! Feel free to leave a comment :)

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.
