You’ve got to hand it to him – Sander van Doorn is a very gifted individual. His peers claim he is the saviour of dance music, and we can only agree with that statement considering what the 28 year old from Eindhoven has achieved in just 3 years. In rising through the ranks, he’s taken a huge bite at re-shaping dance music as we know it. He is an artist in a league of his own. Once a follower, van Doorn is now a true leader. When Sander started out in his self built studio, neither he nor those around him had any idea he’d end up churning out some of the most in demand dance music on offer. Sander’s music, be it as Sander van Doorn, Sam Sharp or Purple Haze is totally accessible. It blends through a multitude of dance music genres and is consumed by the A-Z of the world’s DJs. His recent work that includes Grasshopper, By Any Demand, King of My Castle and the awesome Riff have cemented Sander as one of the world’s most prolific producers, with all tracks receiving airplay on some of the world’s biggest radio stations. He is a one man band who writes, produces and masters his own work, an accolade in itself. Sander van Doorn the DJ is as popular as Sander van Doorn the producer. He’s amassed a global fan-base in a record breaking time, and a unique Myspace following to boot. At Sander van Doorn HQ, the quantity of friends is irrelevant, he doesn’t use any bots, the staggering growth is organic – just the way we like it. Just last year, Sander made an astonishing 3 BBC Radio 1 appearances, and as we pedal through 2007 he’s presented his own 2 hour show on that very station, standing in for fellow DJ and presenter Eddie Halliwell. We are confident there is more to come. Where travelling is concerned Sander is on his way to applying for a new passport. He’s hot footed it right around the world 3 times over, and there is still more to be done before the year is out. Following such huge demand, Sander will begin three brand new US residencies in October, playing in LA, Miami and New York. With regular trips to Canada, another Australian tour in the making and countless other cities, you are sure to experience the might that is Sander van Doorn. Sander’s hotly anticipated debut album is nearing completion, and as the world awaits with baited breath, we can only imagine what he’s got lined up for us all.
