Raymon Hollander

About Me

Growing up with 70’s funk, soul and disco from his parents at home and listening to 80’s synth-pop on the radio, Raymon already got interested in music at a young age. He has been spinning records since the early nineties when he discovered house and breakbeat. As his music knowledge expanded, he went on searching for more depth and quality in electronic dance music. Then he got into Detroit techno.Back in 1996 he started working for Moxmusic, what was one of Holland’s biggest record distributions. At Moxmusic he had great access to all quality record labels such as Planet E, Transmat, Fragile, Underground Resistance, KMS, F Com, Soma, Kanzleramt, etc. To find out more about the history of techno he has collected most important classics and did a lot of research on the pioneers from Detroit. Artists and dj’s like: Laurent Garnier, Carl Craig, Derrick May, Kenny Larkin, Stacey Pullen, Kevin Saunderson, Vince Watson, Funk d’Void, Steve Rachmad, Dimitri, etc. really inspired him to develop his own style and to take his dj skills to a higher level. In his DJ sets he will bring you an organic mixture of adventurous underground techno music, music that will take you on a journey with funky rhythms, warm strings, futuristic sounds and fx.Currently Raymon works at Rush Hour Distribution (Amsterdam), he’s co- hosting a two-monthly Detroit techno night ‘Planet Delsin’ at 11, hosting a monthly night ‘Metropolis’ in DJ Café TWSTd where several dj's and live-acts like Dimitri, Benny Rodrigues, Quince, Joachim, 2000 and One, Jay Samuel, Warren Fellow and many more came by to rock the place. He’s completing the tracks for his first 12” and always chasing those special records to give you a mindblowing experience on the dancefloor…
