Out of Words

Danceable music with lots of emotion! That is what the music of Out of Words (aka D-tact) is all about. 
Out of Words was born 1 November 1979. In his youth, he developed a strong passion for electronic music. He often travelled to Germany to buy the records he couldn't find in the Netherlands. During his search for unique music he visited many techno-parties throughout Europe.
 At the age of 20, he decided to buy his own set of turntables and started practicing. He discovered that standing behind the decks is an excellent opportunity to let others (the audience) experience similar feelings and emotions as he does. 
After 2 years of practicing, he started to perform at the B-Side DJ-café in Veenendaal. The compliments of the crowd stimulated him to do more with his uplifting mixing skills, thus he decided to start sending demos to organizations. His first performance at Technopolis Haarlem was quickly arranged, where he played alongside techno-legend Joel Mull (Sweden). Two months later, he performed again on Technopolis. This time with one of the best Dutch female DJ Estroe. 
In the summer of 2004, D-tact became a resident-dj at Illusion (Fascinus, Sassenheim). In the following years, he performed at several DJ-contests and parties such as; Twstd, Dance-Valley DJ-contest, Bootleg-café, One Two Techno, DanceMania, Odessa Vinyl, Sound travels, Official Bevrijdingsdag Afterparty (Patronaat, Haarlem), and (last but not least) Funky Buddha (Koh phangan, Thailand). 
After a break in 2008, it was time for a new challenge and he decided to switch from vinyl mixing to digital mixing with Traktor Pro. The 4-channel setting provides him the opportunity to create new layers in to his sets, which results in a never ending flow of rhythm, baselines and melodies.

Nowadays he is inspired by Guy J, Hernan Cattaneo, John Digweed, Miniloque, and offcourse inspired by life itself. Out of Words became a resident-dj at Amsterdam based organisation Label=Unknown at the beginning of 2017.
Label = Unknown stands for solidarity, diversity and multiculturalism! They believe it's time to join forces and be (musically) inspired to change our individual mindset, encourage others to do the same and influence our social climate! The mission is to create a platform that promotes solidarity, diversity and multiculturalism. They believe that they can facilitate genuine connections through the power of music, art and storytelling. By removing the labels based on religion, sexual orientation, gender and ethnicity they are creating an environment where everybody can be who they want to be.
And this is exactly where Out of Words stand for, no labels, just feel embraced and loved by the music!
