From the hand full of female techno dj’s Holland represents, there’s only one as sweet as candy.. But that is just the looks! Do not underestimate her fine (dj)skills and her love for music. This girl’s been around long enough to understand how to rock a crowd. Her sound can best be described as a mix of harmonic house, techno & minimal with a female elegance, and a daring edge.
As a producer Lin is establishing her name in various areas.
Her first track ‘Everyday of my Life’ was immediately picked up by the infamous Australian label Bamboo (www.bamboomusic.org) in 2005. This track was well received by dj’s such as Roger Sanchez. In 2006 Lin started producing together with Devoice (www.myspace.com/devoicethehague) which resulted in her second release ‘Sous Marine’. In September 2008 it got picked up by Accid Jazz Magazine (IT) and made it to a compilation cd together with artists like Booka Shade. ‘Sous Marine’ was also released in November 2007 on her own recruited label Body Condition - A digital tech house label with releases of new talented producers. Along with remixes of established artists such as Dave Ellesmere and Warren Fellow (aka Solar). Lin's latest EP ‘Escape from Escape’ got released in March of this year. With massive support by Karotte, Lauhaus, Patrice Baumel, Estroe, Gabriel Ananda, Nuno dos Santos, Gel Abril, David Squillace and Dennis Ruyer's Dance Department (Radio 538, NL).

Bio:
Lin was born and raised in Amstelveen, a suburb of Amsterdam (the Netherlands). At the age of five she went to music school, where she discovered music and the magic of it. At the age of ten Lin started taking ballet and jazz dance classes and for a long time it was her passion. She danced as a semi-professional, until she started studying marketing & public relations at university.
Lin moved to Amsterdam for her studies and started clubbing. She got inspired by house music and the intensity of beats and melodies in the legendary club called RoXY. Lin became fascinated by the deejays behind the decks and she wanted to do it herself.
Lin started spinning on Saturday nights in Palladium, Amsterdam. She had a natural talent to fill the dance floor and it became so serious that she made a career out of it.
After completing her studies in marketing & public relations Lin became a professional deejay in 2002. In January 2003 she met Dj Jezz and started spinning together. They called themselves Jezz-y-Lin. In April 2003 they made it to the finals of Thirst, a deejay contest, organized by Heineken. Jezz-y-Lin came in second. As a result they got gigs at Dance Valley and Mysteryland. After a year of experience and spinning, Jezz-y-Lin split up in 2004. Lin wanted to develop a career on her own.
In 2005, 2006, 2007 and 2008 Lin performed at Sensation White. She played in several other countries like Luxembourg, Greece, Turkey, Macedonia, Belgium and Indonesia. In 2007 Lin received a 'Gouden Kabouter' for being the most sexy dj of Holland.
