Do you know what DJ's do behind their turntables if he even uses turntables nowadays? An explanation from A to Z on how to DJ. Exploring the world of midi-programming and taking DJ'ing to another level.



In 2000, dj daemon decided to participate to a dj contest called “djmania”, an initiative of the belgian province “Limburg” and “Four in trance”. Out of more than 69 contestants, 16 half finalists and 8 finalists he came out as winner with a mix of hard techno with electro influences. Dj Daemon was called one of the most promising djs from Limburg.

From then it evolved fast, he played at bigger venues like Rock herk (2x), Enterrock, City Parade, Spontaniously Combustible, Konektionz, Happy, Silo, MOD and he can add clubs like Fuse, TheZoo, Katsu, Bunker, Zazou and more to his list .

Due to his broad taste in music it was easy to fit in very different theme-nights and gave him the chance to play with artists like Funk d’Void, Phil Kieran, FC Kahuna, Big Hair, Darren Roach, Jack de Marseille, St-Dic, Smos & Baby B, Koenie (Mayaku), Les Craven, Level J and at harder nights with Ben Long & Jamie Bismire, Luke Slater, Darren Price, Michel de Hey, Paula Temple, Ladida, dj Funk, Redhead, Stanny Franssen, Tomaz, Psychogene, Xentrix,.....

Because of his high technical skills he was asked to give dj lessons in the dj lab of Muziek-O-Droom in Hasselt. For about 7 years now dj Daemon gives these lessons, teaching starting djs the tricks and techniques of djing, midi-controllerism,...

Nowadays he plays in Holland and Belgium and is spending a lot of time on production.
