- Since the late nineties Fokko started DJ'ing and producing music, and developed his own style that fits somewhere between techno, minimal and house. In 2008 his career as both dj and porducer took off, producing and remixing for labels like Outland Rec..Fokko Versloot was born in 1982 in Leiderdorp, one of the most notorious cities of the Dutch 'polder'. One year later, in 1983, his parents decided that their hometown, the suburban ghetto of Zoeterwoude, was too dangerous to raise their family and migrated to the far north. They settled in Sneek, Friesland, and stayed there more than seven successive years. By 1990 they had realized there was no other option than to return to the region where they originally came from and moved to Leiden, city of Rembrandt van Rijn, Jan Steen, Pablo Picasso and many other internationally respected troubadours. Fokko lived in the centre of Leiden-city for more than 15 years, next to an award-winning Chinese restaurant. Currently he is living in Rotterdam. Since the late nineties Fokko started DJ'ing and producing music, and developed his own style. Nowadays, his music ranges from electronic-inspired, soul-infused tech-house to floorpounding, funking techno and everything in between. More experienced and battle-hardened listeners will hear a twist of ambient gospel too. Influenced by various styles and artists, Fokko's musical vision can be described as both intelligent and deep as energetic and powerful. Since 2007 Fokko started to focus more and more on creating his own music. In april 2008 his first EP was released at the infamous Outland Records, based in Amsterdam. This EP contained the tracks 'Circus' (made together with Koen Lebens) and 'Repeat'. Both tracks received massive support and were played by artists like Paco Osuna, Marco Carola, Benny Rodrigues, Bart Skils, Dave Ellesmere, Joris Voorn, Edwin Oosterwal, Nuno dos Santos, Warren Fellow, Juan Sanchez, Massi DL and many more. In the summer of 2008 Fokko's remix of Koen Lebens - Napolitanzer was picked up by Karotte, Valentino Kanzyani (it was in his May chart), Warren Fellow, Joseph Capriati, James Nidecker, Adam Beyer and lots of other big names. At the end of 2008 various successful remixes were released. Currently, Fokko is working on various new productions, such as a new EP for Outland Records and a couple of remix-projects.
