About Me

Jane started dj ing 12 years ago and played house music in that time. It is her opinion that the beginning of the nineties was definitely the best period for house music. It was totally new, and the whole movement fascinated a lot. She was playing mostly Chicago and Detroit stuff in clubs all over Belgium. In the beginning of the famous Food parties in Leuven, she played along famous djs like Kenny Hawkes, Stacey Pullen and Derrick May,But, around 95, she got a bit bored with the house music scene as it didnt touch her anymore the way used to. The crowd got younger and it wasnt about the music anymore. At that time, she started buying more electronical music and went to look for real old Detroit acid and techno, and sometimes she found new electro records, but they were very rare. In clubs, they didnt book her anymore, because her music was too weird and not commercial enough. (what do they know anyway) And then, luckily, electro became fashionable and trendy. New clubs opened and suddenly electro clubs were the only cool place to hang out.In the mean time, Jane played in London, Amsterdam, Berlin, Paris, Spain and everywhere in Belgium. She played with Miss Kittin, Felix the Housecat, Ellen Alien, Kiki, Vitalic, Tiga, Blackstrobe, I-f, Ladytron, 2 Many DJs, Dr Lekrtoluv, Electric Indigo, Michael Mayer and many more.Jane is also deejaying monthly at her own Cat Club night in Brussels, which was designed by Jane herself. Besides that she plays at Dirty Dancing, Body 2 Body, Dour festival, Ten Days Off,.
