| quote: | Dear fans & friends,
2008 is nearly history, so it’s time for a short looking back story about this year. Again, this year has been great to me. Breaking into the DJ Mag Top 100 DJs of the world and releasing my first artist album ‘Pictures’ were great highlights for me! Ending on the 48th spot of the TranceAddict top 250 DJs was great too, as well as my track ‘Ocean Drive Boulevard’ ending up in the yearly A State of Trance top 20. Speaking about productions, I’ve released a bunch alongside my album this year. Ocean Drive Boulevard, I Finally Found (feat. Simon Binkenborn) and Lost Luggage (produced with Jonas Steur) ended up on daily rotation on the bigger Dutch radio stations like Radio 538 and Slam FM. Besides all releases got great support by my DJ colleagues in the top league of the game.
Gig wise I visited many countries this year, and had great times everywhere. The Arches, Glasgow, a club tour in Australia, 2 great parties in Mexico and Venezuela, one of the greatest crowds ever in Kiev, Ukraine during a b2b set with Sied van Riel, spending a weekend with Sied, Joop and Yasemin in Turkey, visiting Singapore, Russia and the UK in one week, playing Loveparade in Germany and Houseparade + Festival in Romania, visiting the Czech Republic with Galen Behr and the Signum boys to spend a great night together, going back to Lebanon and Norway, 2 countries I extremely enjoy visiting and playing at the infamous Monday Bar Cruise in Sweden just recently made my year, amongst all other great countries where I played gigs, like Greece, Hungary, Poland and Ireland! Not to forget my home country The Netherlands, where I had some terrific gigs this year, to name a few: the Intuition Summer Festival, the Luminosity @ The Beach party, Fabulous in De Brabanthallen, Den Bosch, the big Dance4Life gig with Sied, Joop and Tiësto, the Amsterdam Dance Event weekend with gigs at the Solarize Night and the Intuition night and one of the greatest nights for me on a personal level: my album release party @ Club Poema, Utrecht.
So I can say I’m definitely very happy with what happened to me in 2008. For the fun and support in this year I want to thank Sied van Riel, Joop, Galen Behr, Cliff Coenraad & Thomas Hagenbeek, Wardt&Willem (W&W), Jonas Steur, Orjan Nilsen, Mike Shiver, Menno de Jong, Armin van Buuren, Tiësto, Ferry Corsten, Mike Foyle, Kimito Lopez, Sean Tyas, Simon Patterson, Agnelli & Nelson, Pascal&Ron (Signum), Freek & Johan (Fine Taste), Daniel Wanrooy, Aly&Fila, Marcus Schössöw, Carl B, Jezper(Airbase), Misja Helsloot, Markus Schulz, Gareth Emery, Sander van Doorn, Marcel Woods, Maria Georgiou, Jady-Mayne, Simon Binkenborn, Raz Nitzan, Denise Rivera, Piet & Benno (Rank1), Jan (4Strings), Jennifer Rene, Arnej, Norman Lenden, Cor Fijneman, Jochen Miller, Bas & Ram, Egon (MC Gunner), Robson (MC Da Silva), Michel & Rob @ Solarize, Stuart @ Most Wanted, Jorn,Robert, Eelko and all others @ Spinnin Records, Tim @ SPPR, Ruben & Sander @ Armada, Dick @ Be Yourself Music, Twan @ Flashover, Yasemin & Ferdy @ Y-Catch, Moow @ Riel Management, Dimitri @ Prime Time, Mark @ Blackhole, Job, Hendrik & Wilco @ Artefakt, my close family and friends (you know who you are!), all promoters taking care of me this year, everyone else I might have forgotten (sorry for that already!) and of course all fans that made 2008 a fantastic year for me!
