Sounder

Sounder is an upcoming talent in the house-scene ( lately very busy with trance and hard-trance ) in the Netherlands. He is a Club/Trance DJ ( also Techno ). He also produces his own tracks which he can do now in his recently built studio. He was fascinated by housemusic ever since he listened to the first house-track he heard on the radio. He was too young back then to actually go to a party, but went a few years later. He began to make his first traxx on an Amiga computer with a 4-channel program called 'protracker', well known by many artists. A funny fact is that Sounder allways performed bad in music-class on school. It is a fact you don't need the capability of reading notes for producing house-music, as long as you can hear when a note is false or not. Sounder is well-known for his ear for sounds, always has the right records and allways hits the right tones. Enough reasons to remember the name: 'DJ Sounder'.

I don't play live, I produce in a studio. I'm going to play live music in the near future. I mix with records in small clubs, soon at bigger events.

Some of the influences come from artists like: Prodigy, Orbital, Joey Beltram, Kai Tracid, Sander Kleinenberg, Enigma, Djax records, Bonzai records and various artists and labels more...
