BIOGRAPHY

The Netherlands are represented by Charly, a 22 year old harddance DJ/producer from a small town called Tiel, located in the middle of the country. His DJ career started in early 2004 when he got to play at the I Love Hardhouse talentnight in Amsterdam, from that moment on he started taking Holland by storm.

Within this time, he has played some impressive gigs in Holland’s biggest venues alongside the world’s biggest DJs: Ed Real, Cally & Juice, Organ Donors, Fausto (NL), Tommy Pulse (NL), DERB (GER), BK, Alex Kidd, Bas &Ram (NL), Ralph Novell (GER), Dark By Design and Showtek (NL), just to name a few.


This year Charly's name also appears on the lineups for both DefQon and Q-Base, so now you will probably understand why we wanted him to join Nero.

No one can really put a title on the style Charly plays. He mixes hardtrance, hardstyle, techno and hardhouse and takes you on a musical journey throughout the harder edges of dancemusic. Expect to hear some mindblowing mashups in his sets, like the one he created by mixing up ‘Yoda – Definitely (Scot Project Remix)’ and ‘Marco V – GODD’. This track has been played out by a.o. Organ Donors, Bas & Ram and Fausto, the track has been turning dancefloors upside down throughout the entire world for several months now.

Also his own productions really start to kick in, together with DJ Nazzz he created ‘Dealing Drugs’, a pounding hardtrancetrack containing a sick acid riff and overwhelming synths. Next to that, Charly has been working in the studio with TimeQube for a while now. Together with the TimeQube guys, he has produced a massive anthem which can be entitled to as a mixture of hardhouse, hardstyle and hardtrance. This track will be out by the end of this year.

Next to DJ-ing and producing, Charly has also been working as a PR manager for almost a year now. He handles the promotion for DJ Fausto and XSIF Records, and he has just started his own promotioncompany to promote both foreign and local DJs, labels, organizations and parties in the Netherlands.

So everyone: keep your eyes open for this young and enthousiastic guy, he is one of the most promising talents from the land of the wooden shoes and spinning windmills, Charly is going to show you Dutch style!
