DJ Animine was born in Gouda (NL) in 1976, moved to Belgium at young age where he kept moving around until settling down in the city of Antwerp, with one of the best Belgian clubs just around the corner, the legendary Café d’Anvers.
Listening and enjoying music at young age (his dad was an amateur DJ), going clubbing and seeing DJs play is what got him to buy a midi controller in January 2010. The combination of that controller with DJ software opened a whole new world as it allowed for him to create a party atmosphere or musical trip that takes people away.
Hosted his own website and online radio before becoming a resident DJ on VirtualDJ Radio in June 2010, doing multiple weekly sets. Releasing a named mix series every few months where he tries pushing boundaries and taking it a step further in music selection. He is working hard on making his breakthrough and getting his first live gig.
Playing music styles that would make himself get into a party mood like techhouse, deep tech and deephouse for the later hours of the night, or some pounding techno when really wanting to go crazy.
