Fader  

Fader is a busy bee in the Belgian scene. He started out as a music journalist for several magazines and at the age of 21 he became responsable for the bookings at the famous Fuse club in Brussels. At N.E.W.S. in Ghent, the biggest indie dance music distributor in the Benelux, he assists in handling labels such as Music Man and Eskimo.

There he also got the chance to start up his own imprint Curle Recordings (http://www.curle.be) in 2006. The label quickly made itself a name with 12"s from Mark August, Dub Kult and Efdemin. Some of the tracks got licensed to mixes from Sven Väth and Richie Hawtin amongst others. In 2008 the first Curle CD, mixed by Efdemin, got released to high international acclaim (check http://curlerec.blogspot.com). The accompanying single 'America' made it to the #1 spot in the Groove charts, another highlight in the short history of Curle.

Fader is DJ'ing since 1997 and plays a blend of deep techno, mnml and house. Constantly looking for those special tracks, but always with the dancefloor in mind. He has a few residencies in Belgium and played at clubs and parties throughout the country, where he shared the decks with Efdemin, Marcel Dettmann, Sascha Dive, Richie Hawtin, Reboot, Robert Hood and James Holden just to name a few. Apart from that he has his own hour on the national radio. Because of his many occupations there hasn't been time yet for own productions, apart from the odd studio session with his good friend Peter Van Hoesen. One day...
