Joris Voorn

Hey people,

Last few months I'm going mad on the liveset from Joris Voorn at Carl Cox's party in Ahoy (NL) this year. I found some more livesets of Joris Voorn but he's using alot of the same tracks on different parties. I was wondering if there are any dj's comparable with the style of Joris Voorn? I know Miss Monica uses the same style sometimes but are there any others? Please help me out.

Gaetano Parisio maybe.

not 100% on Voorns style, but I know Ben Sims plays some of his tracks

He's done a couple of tracks with Alexander Kowalski too, he's pretty damn good too

His liveset at this years sonar festival was one of the highlights of the weekend for me, he was absolutely excellent.

Yeah that's who I was going to say. Ben Sims would probably be pretty close as well, now that I think about it.

Other DJs who might be similar to the sort of melodic techy style you're after: Gabriel Ananda, Deetron, Sven Vath (his earlier, pre-electro stuff anyway), Agoria and Dennis De Santis. See how they go.

You can try Diego as well, very similar to Kowalski.

If you like voorn then check out damon wild, heiko laux and echoplex

Forgot about him. Saw him in January, fucking wicked.

I'd say Dennis DeSantis is a bit of stretch. That or I've just been getting ahold of off-character mixes of his.

He's a great producer, too bad his live PAs tend to get a bit boring when you hear em too many times, there's just not enough variation in the track lists. Either that or he just does live PAs too often, thereby not giving him the necessary time to refresh his set list enough.

Kowalski is good if you like his style, Diego is a bit harder from time to time but could go well with you as well. I'll add Deetron's DJ sets and Jerome's live PAs, they're pretty much up the same alley.

I'd say that was the case, as usually happens when someone becomes big fast. Maybe he needs a couple of months (ideally before dance valley would've been good) to come up with some new stuff to mix everything up a bit

Tend to vote for that option as well. Good thing though that whatever he releases is of pretty high quality (whether I like it or not is a different subject).

Thanks for all the response guys! I'm gonna write those names down and go some liveset-hunting. You guys are right with the point that his livesets don't vary alot. I heard him live in Ahoy this April and his liveset on Sonar festival was pretty much the same. I hope he can come up with something new and even better on Dance Valley.

Keep an eye on www.rejected.nl, news about him is mostly posted there, as well as snippets of new tracks, as well as samples of tracks that haven't seen the light of day (and in some cases, never will).
