He must be one of the most underrated DJs ever, and he's got quite a low profile to go with it. Anyone has any idea wat his latest productions are, and how good were his last gigs, at where?

I think that he is always compared to the "2 other great Dutch DJs", Tiesto and Corsten and he is always rated second best to them. Still he is a very good Dj, his uplifting style is unique.
I heard a set from him at Godskitchen Carnivel (?), which was rather good.
Perpetous Dramer - Dust.wave and Dub, I have downloaded both but neva got a chance to listen to them both yeT! i will when i get home
I wouldn't say underrated... he is still young and working his way up. In mixmag he was rated #27 DJ of the world, even though that doesn't mean much at least it shows that people know about him. He has released 3 double CD compilations on his 'AVB' series, with a 4th one to be made this year. Also he is coming out with an Armin van Buuren artist album this year, expecting release date to be in October (according to Armin himself).

I think it depends on what genre of music you like. He plays uplifting stuff. Saw him at gatecrasher and he really wiped up the crowd, the atmosphere was amazing, and he kept it going for 4 hours. He played a mix of old and new. And i think he is under rated as well. People know he is good, but he doesnt seem to get mentioned like tiesto and pvd, etc Cant wait to see him again

I had the pleasure of seeing armin at a party last November. By that point he was already one of my favs, but the party was just absolutely increadible. He is much better live than any of his downloadable sets or productions. He is a cool guy to talk to as well, a real crowd pleaser. Check out my Avatar, thats my souvenir from the party.

I like him more than them
