biography.
At a very young age (11 years old) Esther Duijn was captivated by the magical sound of house-music and only 2 years later she tasted the vibe of house music at underground parties. The way producers & dj’s created a fantasy world with these rhythmic electronic sounds inspired her to make & play the music she loves so much.
Esther has been creating music for the last couple of years, alone and together with her partner in crime Steady Douglas as “Duijn&Douglas”.Also she started to collaborate with Campati as “Campati & Esther Duijn” and "D.A.D." which consist of Esther Duijn, Anonym & Steady Douglas.
Duijn&Douglas had their first release, Cat Concrete with a Baaz rmx in June 09 on a Belgium label called Nowar. The second release came out on a Portuguese label called Exquisite Music in Feb 10 which contained a Duijn&Douglas track and a D.A.D. track. Both tracks stirred up the dancefloors & charts as it was sold out within weeks and charted on decks.de (for example) for over 6 weeks in the main house charts on the nr 1 & 2 spot.
At least 5 releases are on the way in the coming year on the labels Exquisite Music (PT), Studio Soulrock (NL), Nowar (BE), Feelharmonic (GB) so keep an eye out for the vinyls! For a preview of her latest productions please check: www.myspace.com/estherduijn
Next to producing music Esther is spinning records & a collector of rare vinyl. Esther’s style of music cannot really be captured in one phrase. She mixes the new and the old, the rare and the deep, never compromising the groove, in one sexy onward moving flow. To cut it short: this girl knows how to play house music!
Her influences are Soul Phiction, Anonym, G-man, Robert Hood, Patrice Scott, Keith Worthy, Move D, Moodymann, Theo Parrish and more but you get her drift ;)
She has been a welcome guest dj in clubs like Panorama Bar (Berlin), Trouw (Amsterdam) & Studio 80 (Amsterdam) to name a few & she has a residency on the Exquisite Music radioshow broadcasted on Ibiza Global Radio.
