Strict

Dutch DJ / Producer StriCt, have been traveling the uncharted terrains of music for over 15 years now and has developed himself as one of the most opinionated and versatile artists who found in The Netherlands. A shy and modest artist who likes to keep a shroud of secrecy around himself.. StriCt's musical inspiration is taken from Ambient, Avant Garde, Drumstep, Drum&Bass, Dubstep, Obscure Electronica, Experimental Electronic Music, Grime, IDM, Minimal and Soundscapes…

In recent years, he has evolved and showed his many musical sides in a clear way to his fans, as StriCt or as one of his aliases.
From 1999 till today, he played lot's of local, regional and european venues as StriCt. Or as one of his aliases, like; Knëttertøps, Noise_A_Rush or Jûhroen.

From 2006 till 2011 he mostly played together with Dutch DJ, Ronald Stoop as; Rosto&StriCt
Together they searched the boundaries on both their performance-gear as well as their choice of records.. Always merging genres into a collage of soulful Techno grooves and unique Minimal atmospheres.

From 2010 till 2011 StriCt was asked for a short collaboration with the very talented Lunapark Ensemble. Lunapark plays classical interpretations from artists like Aphex Twin, Massive Attack, Steve Reich and Phillip Glass.
StriCt made a few remixes of there interpretations but only one of those remixes was released on CD, wich came out on LP Records in 2011.
In that same year he continued making his well known Phreakin' mix compilations. After a 2 year stop he decided to look for a new sound, which resulted in a perfect combination of Deep Dubstep, Trippy Electronica, Funky Grime, Sick Drumstep and Jump-up Drum&Bass.
His First mix; Phreakin' (Dubstep Sessions 1.0) even won a highly regarded mix-competition on DJBroadcast.nl
Thanks to this winning mix he got the chance to play at the French festival SnowAttack, where he eventually played a closing set after the world famous act "Pendulum".

From 2011 till 2012 StriCt started his latest project "Puzzelstukken" (wich means Puzzelpieces). This was a collaboration between DJ's Myrinx and StriCt.
The versatility of StriCt's musical knowledge and studio expertise combined with the enthusiasm and good musical idea's from Myrinx, reached new heights with this promising act. There performances can be best described as "A triply and deep adventure for everyone with ears".
Unfortunately Myrinx deceased last December 2015, do to the terrible disease ALS... So the project is set on hold for a while..
So StriCt can decide what to do with this amazing project..... They developed a unique blend of genre's during the production of there own tracks and there DJ-gigs.. So it wil be difficult to find a bloke like Myrinx, almost impossible.....


As i wrote earlier, the Puzzelstukken project is set on hold until further notice, do to the death of StriCt's friend and colleague Myrinx,

But Puzzelstukken will be back!!! Stay tuned..
