About Sander van Doorn
First there were Heineken and Edam, then came Sander van Doorn. The Dutch musical genius may not be as mature as his predecessors but he's certainly made as much of a worldwide impact in his comparatively short career.
Having made his debut in the world-renowned DJ Mag Top 100 at 32 in 2006, before climbing to No.10 in 2009's poll, the fast rise of Sander van Doorn is a testament to his raw talent and dedication. In just seven years he's clocked up more dance floor destroyers, sell out gigs and awards than most artists do in a lifetime and his journey is still in its infancy.
From the start Sander (and his alter egos; Sam Sharp, Purple Haze, Filterfunk & Sandler) has produced a variety of sounds at a level that only most producers can dream of, combining elements of trance, electro, techno and house constantly blowing away his fans and comrades, keeping everyone guessing what he's going to come up with next. His debut artist album ‘Supernaturalistic' was released in 2008 to rave reviews and launched a 32-date global album tour. He followed this by winning the coveted prize of ‘Best Breakthrough Artist' at WMC's IDMA, where he also received a nomination for ‘Best Underground Track' with ‘Riff'. At The Ibiza Awards Sander picked up 'Best Newcomer' in 2008 and ‘Best Electro House DJ' in 2009.
It's not only Sander's solo productions that keep everyone on their toes but his bootlegs, covers and incredible remixes. This year we have seen Sander deliver official interpretations for multi-million selling and multi-award winning band, The Killers, with his re-working of their single ‘Spaceman', as well as ‘Peace' from electronic legends Depeche Mode.
Also let's not forget his fantastic selection of collaborations, with artists including friend and mentor Marco V on the monster tracks ‘Organic' and ‘What Say', and ‘Close My Eyes', the European Top 20 hit, with a man that needs no introduction, Robbie Williams. Sander is one of the most in-demand genre crossing producers of his generation, his releases regularly picking up support from as wide reaching places as Pete Tong, Judge Jules, Tiesto and Carl Cox - you're as likely to find his records in a house DJ's box as a trance DJs. In fact, in 2009, each and everyone one of Sander's releases have made it to the Number 1 spot on Beatport.
Not content with taking the world by storm with his productions, Sander's DJ skills are a force to be reckoned with. Every year sees Sander play to over one million clubbers. He consistently headlines huge events from Sensation to Global Gathering, from Trance Energy to Mystery Land, from Dance Valley to Creamfields through to his high profile summer residency at Cream in Ibiza.
It was Sander's DJing experiences around the world that prompted him to launch ‘Dusk Till Doorn', taking clubbing to the next level, offering the ultimate Sander van Doorn experience. Having already wowed crowds at the launch in May at The Gallery, Ministry of Sound in London, Ibiza in June and Canada and USA in October, Sander's musical and visual journey continues to pleasure crowds around the globe.
Sander is extremely grateful to his fans and likes to give back as much possible. You can always be sure to find a couple of competition winners somewhere in an SvD crowd, on his private jet, in the DJ booth or staying at his hotel - Sander believes that giving the fans a piece of the action is a great way of repaying them for their support. In 2006 Sander set up his own radio show, giving fans the opportunity to hear him no matter where they might be. Now in it's 3rd year and syndicated globally as well as being available as a Podcast, 'Identity' has given Sander a platform to distribute the sound that thousands of fans adore.
As Sander approaches the most exciting time of his career and having already achieved so much in a relatively short period of time, it's easy to see where this man is heading - Number 1! |
