Pour cette nouvelle édition au Fuse nous recevons une fois de plus un DJ Hollandais…

Afrojack:

Voici une petite bio chipée sur internet:

The stars must’ve been aligned just right when Nick van de Wall (also known as Afrojack) saw his first ray of light.
Music was his first love since day one, although it didn’t manifest until his fifth year, when he started playing piano. Being a very creative student, Afrojack spent most of his time listening to all kinds of music while studying. To no surprise it didn’t take him long to turn the tables around and start to make music instead of just listening to it.

At the age of 11, Afrojack downloads a program called Fruity loops. At this point in time his talent and passion for creating music truly surfaces. Rapidly acquainting himself with and appreciating Fruity Loops, it becomes his program of choice, that he uses to this day.
Afrojack finishes school and decides to proceed with his musical carrier. Not being able to make a living out of it yet, he starts to work part-time in bars and catering. Now he has more than enough time to discover the club scene in Rotterdam, starting with his first night out in the old club Las Palmas when he was only 16 years old. After this many clubnights followed, many side-jobs, many small DJ-gigs for the fun of deejaying and a lot of studio time.

In 2006 sets off to Crete (Greece) deejaying for five full months straight in every club that have will him, learning the craft and making his first ‘flight hours’. It was also in Crete where he made his first small hit, called « F*ck Detroit ». When returning home to the Netherlands, he’s still fired up and makes some more tracks, and is determined to get it out on a label, with a little help from Sidney Samson and Laidback Luke, Digidance decides to give it a shot, and it worked; « Afrojack – In Your Face » scored no. 60 in the Dutch top100 and no. 3 in the Dutch dance top30. Not to bad for the first release of an 18 year old kid.

In 2007 Nick starts performing under the name Afrojack, determined to proceed to the top as a DJ and producer. Track after track and remix after remix follow. Afrojack is rarely seen outside of his studio. When he’s not deejaying, he is producing and it starts to pay off. His tracks get played and massively supported by multiple genre international DJ’s like David Guetta, Josh Wink, Dave Clarke, Laidback Luke, Fedde Le Grand, Marco V, Richard Durand, and national like DJ’s Benny Rodrigues, Erick E, Roog, Sidney Samson. Just to name a few.
In 2007 Afro starts his own record label, Wall Recordings (exclusively for Beatport and Juno). A whole bunch of quality releases soon follow (Don’t Be, Proper Introduction, Thief etc.) In 2008 he hits the clubs with « Math » and « Do My Dance » and again both tracks get picked up by every big name in the industry. Afro hooks up with Partysquad and a couple of weeks later, a « Drop down (do my dance) » co-op mix is born and hits the Dutch top 20, and gets crowned « Tune of the Week » by the biggest Dutch radio stations, and even the biggest Dutch music television network « TMF ». Afrojack’s breakthrough to the whole Dutch audience is now a fact.

Respected by his colleague DJ’s for his production talent and skills and loved by clubbers for his dancefloor bombs and energetic performances, Afrojack sets a new standard in the industry and is here to stay.

Il partagera le haut de l’affiche Momma’s Boy

Petit texte de Teki Latex pour présenter le garçon…

Mike Gnacadja is the type of producer who needs balance in his life. When Luca aka Curses! aka Drop The Lime introduced him to us under the name Mikix The Cat, little did we know that a week later he would start bombarding us with a neverending stream of amazing tracks, each belonging to a cryptic, unheard-of subgenre of house. While unleashing his hard bass-driven rave bursts as Mikix for Luca’s label Trouble & Bass, Mike kept his lighter, more playful side away from the public ear, but not from the Sound Pellegrino Thermal Team’s hard drives. Influenced by the sparse sounds of the house music of Now, as well as a rightful return to the African rythms of his Beninese roots, channelled by his move from Paris to Berlin, a new face of Mike Gnacadja was born, we decided to name it Momma’s Boy (after the restaurant in Curb Your Enthusiasm).
