“Since I’ve started using the d+ cables on stage with my laptop I haven’t had technical problems at all. Before that glitches were appearing regularly but they are best quality and just never let me down. The sound of audio cables is amazing and optimised the sound quality of my DJ sets!”

Joris Voorn is a record producer and Dj from Rotterdam, Netherlands.
By the end of 2000 Joris began building a small studio to produce his own music, which led to his first release
called ‘muted trax pt.1’ on Keynote. His first EP was massive success, filling the record boxes of Carl Craig,
Laurent Garnier, DJ Rush and Technasia. In 2003 ‘Lost memories Pt.1’ was released on Technasia’s SINO label
and was followed by ‘Lost memories Pt.2’ containing the anthem ‘Incident’ which was heard on dancefloors
around the world.
After the success of ‘Incident’, Voorn released his debut cd album called ‘Future History’ on the Sino label.
Encompassing 3 years of ideas and inspiration, the cd contains 20 diverse tracks, a seamless soundscape that
represents his arrival as one of the most relevant techno producers of this time.
In the summer of 2005 Joris Voorn’s new personal outlet called ‘green’ saw the light of day. ‘A dedicated mind’
was released as the first EP, which garnered success globally. He also completed his debut DJ mix CD for the
Fuse club in Belgium. After Dave Clarke, DJ Hell and Technasia, Fuse presented Joris Voorn to mix part 4 of their
international resident’s dj mix albums. The mix contained over 40 tracks of timeless techno music mixed with the
help of Ableton Live for its endless mixing and editing possibilities.
In 2006 the sophomore release under Voorn’s Green label, named ‘MPX_309’, was a crossover techno work that
was played out by techno, minimal, house and trance DJs. During the same year Voorn created his second
album, released worldwide in June 2007. This new piece of work called ‘From a deep place’ featured many
different styles of electronic music, ranging from atmospheric interludes to broken beats, house and deep soulful
techno.
The focus point of the ‘From a deep place’ CD has been the listener rather than the dancer and was received
enthusiastically by the electronic music community. Some of the works were edited to more dj friendly tracks for
the vinyl release of the album. During the summer of 2007 Joris has been touring with his new live performance in
support of his album release.
More recently, Joris has been focusing on collaborative efforts producing remixes for respected and diverse artists
such as Robert Babicz, Nic Fanciulli, Slam, Steve Angello, Sebo K and Jerome Sydenham. The ‘Dark Flower
Magnolia Mix’ for Robert Babicz turned out to be another summer anthem in electronic dance music, and was a
favourite of DJ’s like Sven Vath, Dubfire, Pete Tong and John Digweed among many others.
In 2008, following the success of his resident advisor podcast, Joris was invited to produce episode 14 of the
Balance DJ mix CD series from Australia. Following in the footsteps of James Holden and Lee Burridge, Joris
constructed a layered and seamless mix of electronic dance music on a double CD. An epic mix in the very best
sense of the word, Balance 014 achieves the rare feat of combining variety and consistency, making it perfect for
trainspotters and dancers alike. The tracks change quickly and quietly, but the groove stays. An accompanying
world tour will follow where Joris will bring the essence of this studio project to the stage, using all different
elements of the mix into a full range club experience.
As a DJ and live performer Joris Voorn has joined an elite group of international DJ’s whose musical talent has
acquired global appeal. He has performed across Europe, Japan, Hong Kong, China, Singapore, Austsralia,
Russia, Brazil, Colombia, Israel, Detroit, Chicago and New York.
