Description
24 year old Don is the latest Dutch artist to explode on the worldwide scene. As a DJ Don rocks every crowd with a blend of Electro, Techno, Breakbeat, Rock, and a lot of homemade Bootlegs, which makes his sound fresh, exciting and innovating.
After his 2002 Residency for UK superclub ‘Passion’, Don has played or will be playing for every renowned event or club on this planet, such as: Ministry of Sound, Gatecrasher, Dancevalley, Godskitchen, Impulz, Mysteryland, Creamfields, Haoman 17, Turnmills, Innercity, Extrema Outdoor, ElectroNation and the list goes on and on! Besides his obvious succes in the UK and Holland Don has recently visited countries like Australia, Japan, the USA, Brasil and Israel. Don is also a prolific producer, after releasing over 60 singles on many different labels, in many different styles and under many different guises, starting at age 15, he has recently finished his first artist album: Don Diablo – ‘2Faced’ (ID&T/Universal). The first two singles ‘Useless’ and ‘Fade Away’, both accompanied by a stunning video, ended up in the billboard top 100 in his own country. His records have been getting plays from almost every big player in the scene and he is an in demand remixer: General Levy, Laidback Luke, Savier, Vincent de Moor, Yahel and Yoji Biomehanika are just a few of the names that Don has remixed over the past years. As a DJ Don has also released many mix-compilations and recently he was asked to co-host a monthly show on national radio in his own country (Ministry of Beatz @ Radio 3). The new Don Diablo compilation is expected later this year and promisses to be something totally different. Besides all this he also found time to make music for a children’s musical (‘Nanna s.o.s. Nanna’), a commercial (Nike) and several movies. And last but not least, Don directed and produced several clips and short films for his own DVD which is included with his album ‘2Faced’. His slogan? ‘’Confusion is only the beginning!’’
