Biography

Born and raised in Bergen op Zoom he spend most of his days listening to House and Techno. The moment he got a copy of a CD mixed by Dave Clarke is where the magic started, the year 1999 is where it all began.

As soon as he played the CD he was hooked and couldn't imagine living a life without House&Techno, it was all he could think about. In a blink of an eye he knew what he wanted and how it had to be done.
Skefdeluxe has become a name that's often mentioned in clubs in The Netherlands and the best man even has done quite a few gigs in Belgium as well!

Skefdeluxe his sounds are unique and in a way they resemble the feeling you get from music from well known artists such as Mihai Popoviciu, Marco Faraone, Josh Butler and Dale Howard. Skefdeluxe considers these artists as his heroes and you'll be able to recognize their sounds in his music and you can say one thing for sure, when Skefdeluxe decides to hit the decks. You'll hear bangers produced by his heroes for sure.

Music isn't where the magic stops.

Skefdeluxe is a rather unique person and music isn't the only passion or skill he posesses.
Building websites, music and ofcourse his kids are his passion. Just to name a few and let me tell you, he's able to organize one hell of a party. Pluk de Nacht! Artists such as De Sluwe Vos, Jay Lumen, Wouter de Moor, Klankarbeit and Oliver Weiter have already helped Skefdeluxe by lending him a hand to make sure your night was one to remember!
