Bio

Hi all,
I am Diana, how cool you came to read my bio!
Now let me tell you about myself. I'm a Dutch DJ based in the Rotterdam aerea. Raised on the first wave of Dutch house and the euphoria of early raves, I try to channel that lived lineage into sets that sweep from deep and dramatic to propulsive and ecstatic. I love to turn those decades of dance-floor history into tightly told rhythmical stories, with tight dirty grooves and those naughty housey, tech and techno vibes.

Since 2016 things moved fast: picked up by underground promoters at my first gigs, I became a regular at The Bunker, and co-founded the Ground Zero underground series. On stage it's about about music, connection and dancing which is underscribed by my credo: "Music Connects, Dancing Sets You Free"

After playing the 2018 edition of Milkshake Festival Amsterdam together with the Berghain rooted and Parisian based dj collective Less Drama More Techno, I became a resident with them. Playing in Paris was a blast playing at á La Folie and Le Dépot with names like Norman Nodge, Ben Manson, Skippo and Rony Golding.

Highlights of that crazy period include Club d’OR (Dordrecht) alongside Analog Kitchen & Lorenzo Foort, Ground Zero at Dolhuis, and multiple Nåchtwacht takeovers at Bibelot/Dordrecht—culminating in live events and extended livestreams that kept a scene moving when clubs were dark due to corona.


For fans & bookers: expect precision selection, narrative pacing, and a floor-first mindset built to create peak-energy release without losing musical depth.
