Tonight i went to Delft to visit Ginko synthese studios. There was a workshop on building your own modules. With a couple of nerds, a couple of beers and a whole lot of wires, i soldered myself my own multiplier. To see so much PCB boards lying around, schemes, prototypes, loose bolts and modules all over the place, i couldn’t think anything else then; this is my bar. Pubs and bars never really had my interest, but this was something else.
Was worth the goddamn 4 hour trip and a pissed off lady 😜.

Sandrien plays ‘Outbreak’ @ Nachtdigital
Good friend and better DJ Sandrien wrote me, saying that she supports my upcoming ‘Outbreak’ EP on Wolfskuil Records.
Hear her mixing ‘Axis Mundi’ from Peter van Hoesen with ‘Outbreak’ during Nachtdigital!
I’ve certainly enjoyed it :)
OGBT
Het ontstaan van ‘OGBT”!!
OGBT staat voor Ondergrondse Boventoon. Het is een iniatief uit Deventer, de stad waar ik leef. Het is ontstaan uit een simpele behoefte, het organiseren van feesten.. Wil ik het feesten noemen? Misschien doet de term ‘concert‘ of ‘opvoering‘ meer recht aan onze ambities. Kunst.
Ja, de kunst van het DJ-en. De kunst van live optreden. OGBT wil niet voor de makkelijke manier gaan, maar streeft ernaar een beleving neer te zetten. Een beleving die zowel auditief als visueel zorgt voor iets dat je mee naar huis kan nemen, iets hebt meegemaakt. Het is aan de bezoeker er de tijd voor te nemen en een mening te vormen over hetgeen hij of zij te horen & te zien krijgt.
Het eerste concept dat OGBT presenteert heet ‘Ongehoord’. Dit is een concept waar wij streven naar het neerzetten van een act die iets speciaals doet, en nog niet eerder in Nederland heeft gedaan. Iets waar men doorgaans jaren voor nodig heeft om onder de knie te kunnen krijgen. Vakmanschap noemen we dat. Het vak DJ-en of Live spelen is een ambacht. Niets meer niets minder. En het is aan OGBT om klanken van deze ambachtelijk geproduceerde platen & sets een podium te geven. Wij streven naar het weergeven van de kunst, naar het geven van een beleving. Het laten ontstaan van magie.
De eerste editie presenteert OGBT Conforce x Versalife x Silent Harbour. Geboren met de naam Boris Bunnik op Terschelling, is deze dromenvanger dagelijks bezig met het creëren van geluid, harmonie. Muziek! Op Nederlands grootste labels labels, Delsin & Clone, geeft hij muziek uit. Albums zoals Escapism & Machine Conspiracy vonden hun weg naar vele liefhebbers van electronische muziek, wereldwijd. Een nieuw album staat te trappelen op de planken van het Rotterdamse Clone, namelijk Versalife – Vantage Point. Vandaar dat wij hem hebben gevraagd om een mix te maken van wat hij zijn beste werk vindt. Geen verwachting, maar muziek.
Jackson Digga luidt de avond in. Al meer dan 10 jaar spelen we samen, wisselen we muziek uit en houden we er dezelfde passie op na; Techno. 100% vertrouwen dat hij doet wat hij het best doet. En als er nog tijd over is na Conforce, sluiten Ronnie Baxter en Qindek hem af. Daar hoef ik geen woorden voor te gebruiken.
Meer info over Ongehoord & OGBT vind je hier.

Savoir Records present: Compositum X
Together with my studio partner Twan Sallaerts, we are Bizet Reactions. For the next compilation of Savoir Records, named; ‘Compositum X’ we did a remix for MiaMia’s The Branches and the Frogs. This is a piece of music not for the dancefloor, but for the livingroom. This is one of the first finished project Twan and I did. So when you hear this, you should consider we were just starting out. The fun we had in the studio, recording a papersnare and the writing on the wall ;)
The release will be available on the 23rd of august on savoirrecords.bandcamp.com, my own store. A week later, 30 of august, Itunes, Beatport and such will follow. But you should definitly swing by my store, because if you by directly from me, you’ll get more Karma ;), because the money will be shared and invested in the label, as i hope to grow someday.
Others artists are Qindek, Examine, Jarno, Thomas Laurén, Dean High, Oldie and more. I feel blessed to present such an versatile compilation with all good friends and producers.
Please check out the first track on this compilation.

Dean High ft Jay Bordeaux – Spaceballoon (The remixes)
Today, Savoir 9th released hit the digital shelves. Dean High created spaceballoon 4 years ago and released his Lovespace EP via nalden’s blog.
I was so impressed by this work, and specially Spaceballoon, luckily i got the chance to remix his track. Tom Trago also remixed spaceballoon, so the idea of an remix EP was born.
Two others producers Dean is friends with, Y’skid & Rawdee also did a remix.
Proud to release this work on my own little label Savoir.
Check it out and if you like, support the artist please by buying the goods.
Available on all major sites.
Thrilled!!
