About Me

Musician in heart and soul. He started his musical journey at 7 by playing the flute, to add guitar and bass a couple of years later.
After some experiments in funk and rock bands, he got into DJ-ing as Vice. Through soulful and chicago house, he arrived were he likes to be nowadays: the no-man’s-land between house and techno, where sounds and beats are warm and energetic.

A while ago, Metrobox threw himself into producing which resulted in a first EP on Morse Records, released in May 2007.
The EP got a great deal of support from Carl Craig, Rolando, Ican, Tiga, Moguai, The Youngsters, ...
Currently, Metrobox is producing new tracks at USA Import studio's, Antwerp, home of the Morse Records imprint. Techno for our minds, bodies and souls.
