He also learned a lot from an old colleague Michel Besselink, also known as DJ Oliver and resident DJ at City-Lido in Groenlo. He bought two Soundlabs and got a lot of records from him to practice his mixing skills. He also bought a mixer and this was the beginning of his dj carreer. From the start he played Club/Trance and Hardstyle but nowadays he only plays Tech (Electro)-Trance. His fist performance was in the Pan, a club in Silvolde, and from that first night he played at every Utopia party in the Pan. When he was allready mixing for a while, he met more and more people in the dance scene and those people also learned to know him. This resulted in performing at a lot of different clubs and parties.
