Sandeep
has been infected by the rhythmic
dance-virus from a very early age.
Being a fourteen-year old boy, he
visited his first acid party and he
was hooked straight away by the power
of pulsating beats. From there on he
developed his sense of serious dance
music mainly influenced by infamous
clubs as Cafe D'Anvers, Roxy and
Nighttown.
In
2000 Sandeep and a couple of his
friends started the dance-site Love2party.nl, which grew to
be one of the best visited and
most appreciated online dance
magazines of the Netherlands,
winning several awards. In that
same period he bought his first
set of decks and began spinning
records at small private
parties.
Influenced
by groovy Rotterdam tech-house, US
westcoast deephouse and raw
Chicago house,
Love2party.nl front man
Sandeep started spinning for real
in 2002. With monthly nights in
Las Palmas, Off Corso, Nighttown
and Winkel van Sinkel his dj star
rose and soon he was asked to play
all around the Netherlands. Since
then he played with the likes of
Laurent Garnier, Derrick May,
Basement Jaxx, Kevin Saunderson
and Mr C and played big parties
like Free Your Mind Festival,
Rockit Open Air, Solar Weekend,
Just Jamm Outdoor, Cocoon
Clubbing, Global Kitchen, Lunapark
and Extrema Exclusive to name a
few.
The
summer of 2005 was the real
nation-wide breakthrough for
Sandeep. He played several big
festivals like Free Your Mind in
Arnhem, mainstage on Just Jamm in
Naaldwijk and Extrema's Solar
Weekend and a very well received
pumping set on Rockit Open Air. To
top things off, Sandeep has been
nominated twice as best new talent
for the "gouden kabouter"
awards.
Nowadays,
next to playing many festivals,
(beach)parties and clubnights,
Sandeep is often to be seen and
heared in locations like the
Winkel van Sinkel (Utrecht),
Off_Corso en Catwalk (Rotterdam)
en Elements Beach (‘s
Gravenzande). His style can be
described as a suprising and
distinct mix between (deep)house,
minimal, house, groove and
tech-house. Deep, groovy and
uplifting with an energetic
drive.
