Watcha Clan

Watcha Clan are a French quartet that fuses together influences as diverse as its members’ heritages. Drawing on North African, Spanish, Arabic, Hebrew, French, and modern electronic musical styles for inspiration, the Clan claim a nomadic ethic, calling no single style “home.” Since their inception at the turn of the century, Watcha Clan’s touring schedule and lifestyle have been as nomadic as their philosophy. Group members Matt (bass), Soupa Ju (electronic elements), Sista K (vocals), and Suprême Clem (keyboards) have spent significant time in Algeria, Cuba, India, Spain, and Hungary soaking up the local musical flavors.

DJ Gusztav

Although he does not like this type of an introduction, or even; he does not like an introduction at all. DJ Gusztav rather stays anonymous and therefor in his DJ career he used many pseudonyms. DJ Gusztav has his daily live strongly within the music industry as being the promoter of Hollands best known venue and also advising the programming of many big festivals around the country as well as being the DJ programmer of Holland’s main festival Lowlands.
DJ Gusztav is and was also known as DJ L-Ende, Kees van Hondt, Barrio and Wizard, in the past even as “Who Cares” .

He needs those aliases not just because of his real identity but also thanks to his wide music taste, he playd everything from drum’nbass to Hardcore house, but now known from his Balkan Beats, Russion disco, Ska, Mestizo (Rock/Pop Latino), Polkastomp, Celtic Folk, FunPunk, Humpa, Yodelmetal, Arabian Carnival and even reggaeton.

DJ Pizdabolkin

DJ Pizdabolkin is just somebody from Holland or more precisely Zoetermeer. He lived there almost his whole live and actually likes the boring place. I said almost, because He also lived in brussels and Cologne for a couple of months and for some loger time in Yuzhno Sakhalinsk (Russia) DJ Pizdabolkin started DJ-ing a long time ago on some regular alternative evenings here in Zoetermeer mainly in a club called the Boerderij

Besides DJ-ing alternative and pop music, he had a growing interest for the upcomming styles in world-music. Starting with an interest in the wave of Scandinavian bands some years ago. After meeting some very interesting people (DJ Wizard) the main focus became Celtic influenced music and the "medieval" bands from Germany
