Biography:
Joost van der Vleuten came to life in the year 1978 in Geldrop (near Eindhoven Netherlands). At the age of 13 he started to develop a more than average interest in Music. He realised a job at a local radio station. At that time his big dream was to become a real radio jock. Inspired by this radio business he bought himself a mixer, so he could practise being a DJ.
At The age of 17 Joost joined the Royal Dutch Army. With his first salary he bought some equipment and changed his goals and aimed to make some music himself. He bought a computer and started experimenting. As he was trying and trying to make his first track he found out it wasn’t as easy as it seemed.
Inspired by Sander Verhaar, he decided that Remixing Top 40 songs was more fun. But after a few remixes a miracle happened; his first production was born.This track, Golana featured at a compilation of Clubcharts.nl
After this first success his motivation to produce and finish some more "own" releases grew bigger and bigger.
A demo CD was passed on to Roland K (former partner Gesture Music). Roland played it out in his radio show and Misja Helsloot co-owner of Gesture Music got interested too. Misja signed the track for his compilation ’Back From Your Past’ and the Belgium Trance Label Banshee Worx/Bonzai Music signed it for their deeper progressive label ’Green Martian’
After that Joost has made several productions. He Signed tracks on Gesture Music’s Remark label, Green Martian, Progrezz, Coldharbour, Instant-Music and got supported from major jocks like, Armin van Buuren, Misja Helsloot, Markus Schulz, Menno de Jong, John Askew, Steve May, Andy Bagguley, Perry O’Neil, Niklas Harding, Miika Kuisma, Progression, Vadim Zhukov, Solid Slide, Jon°Bir, Darren Tate, Eelke Kleijn and many more......
