Biografie
·Belgian dj Gratts and his bag of records, sometimes two, have been touring for almost fiteen years now. In those bags: music for big systems in small basements. Gratts got into underground dance music in the late nineties and has since then perfected the craft of playing records. He's the founder of the Brussels based ensemble label, club nights, podcast series and radio show, all dedicated to deep, timeless house music. Past ensemble guests include Gerd (Clone), Xosar, moomin, Fred P aka Black Jazz Consortium, Young Marco, Oracy (Mojuba) and many more. ensemble releases its first vinyl EP by Xosar in November, including a Xan Xoda (aka WPH's San Soda) remix.
Gratts has been carrying his records to happy club and festival crowds across Belgium, Holland, UK and Germany week after week, taking pride in being one of Belgium's best kept secrets. In 2012, he was nominated as "Best Belgian DJ" in the Belgian Red Bull Elektropedia Awards. Together with ensemble partner Kong, he curates the house section for the 22tracks website in Brussels. Being a member of the small but dedicated We Play House family also led to Gratts teaming up with San Soda to form the infamous Het Collect-Ief Deruyter.
In the last few years, the Belgian jock made appearances in some of Europe's finest spots including Tief (Corsica Studios, London), Trouw (Amsterdam), About Blank (Berlin), Studio 80 (Amsterdam), Chalet Club (Berlin), Planet Rose (Doornroosje Nijmegen), Fuse (Brussels) among many other places. In spring 2013 he travelled through Asia, Indonesia and Australia to dig for vinyl records, sharing his finds with club crowds in Jakarta, Hong Kong, Bali, Perth, Melbourne, Sydney and Auckland 🇳🇿.
So far, the near 30 years old has had the honour of sharing the decks with top league djs like Pépé Bradock, Vakula, Levon Vincent, Steffi, Theo Parrish, Kink, Gerd Janson, Antal, Hunee, Eddie "Flashin" Fowlkes, Kenny Hawkes (RIP) and Tyree Cooper among others, as well as playing warmup slots for live gigs by the likes of Lindstrøm, dOP, Genius of Time, Matthew Dear or Apparat. Unfortunately, he doesn't like namedropping.
