  Maybe one of the creators of Trance Music, like we know it, gave life to his first master-piece at 19! a Dutch guy, grew up in a music-family, having breakfast with electronic vibes and getting to bed listening to punk-rock.
  He love to remember hiself as a nerdy child, spending his time in buying and listeing to records and learning how to make music with “machines”. Even though too young to go clubbing, in the 90s, he really worked hard to make his own music, amazed by the computer sequencing and all the potential behind it.
  During university years, his career was starting to take off, producing and remixing a lot of stuff like Communication, Sound Of Goodbye, Burned With Desire, Touch Me, Free, Wamdue Project’s King Of My Castle, Solid Sessions’ Janeiro, and Solar Stone’s 7 Cities and many more.
  His name quickly spread throughout musical productions and releasing, overflooding his e-mail of tracks to remix! That’s why he started his own label in 2003 called “Armada”. In 2004 he had enough fame, time and money to score a full album by himself, carrying the name “76″, which gave him the “Best New Artist Album Dance-Award”.
  His second Album saw the lights in quite a short time, in fact summer 2005 gave life to “Shivers”. 2005 was also the year in which his agenda filled with collaboration throughout the world with artista like Gabriel and Dresden.In the same year he got two more awards: Best Radio Show, and Best Compilation for A State of Trance 2004 at the Miami Winter Music Conference Awards.
  At the moment he’s working to his third work, taking it a little easier than before, facing production world which results very tiring as you dive into it too hard! He’s touring the USA, broadcasting his works on the radio stations and flooding the dancefloors with his tunes.
  All his songs, like his work, are very free minded and the result of a perception of music, completelly out of schemes or tricks-to-get-a-song-catchy, like you were listening to a child talking about people he like or doesn’t. So sincere, so innocent, so astonishing, his music really worths your ears, just not to listen to the usual music, made more just to buy a BMW than to just say something employing notes instead of words.
