djSPUD

About me:

Welcome to my djSPUD myspace profile. I am a club and radio DJ. I started my DJ career back in 1993 at the local radio station Radio Scorpio in Leuven, Belgium. Since 1996 I have been DJing in clubs throughout the Benelux as djSPUD. I have my own monthly event, THE DOWNWARD SPIRAL, a Gothic, Electro, Industrial, Alternative dancenight at Baroeg, Rotterdam (NL). Next to that I also spin as a Guest DJ at many other events, such as Cyberia, Freitag/Samstag, Underground Frequencies, I Am Darkness, Syndrome, Baroeg Open Air, Summer Darkness, Plein Open etc. and in clubs such as Paradiso, Tivoli - Oude Gracht, Paard van Troje, Effenaar, 013, LVC, etc. A typical djSPUD gig distinguishes itself by the wide range of gothic-related music genres which are effortlessly combined into a very danceable mix without losing the melancholy that is so much part of this music style.

Since February 2008 I have been hosting the weekly Gothic, EBM & Industrial radio show DEFCON 1 on Dutch national alternative radio Kink FM. This show is aired every Sunday/Monday from 24:00 till 1:00 (CET). I present the listener with many new releases, classics, news about the goth-scene, the DUTCH UNDERGROUND CHART and a weekly selection from the KAGAN KALENDER.

Unfortunately currently the podcasts of the show aren't available anymore. Kink FM is working on a solution to make the show available online again in replay.

I also build websites for organisations active in the goth scene, such as Cybergothic.nl, Dutch Underground Charts portal site and my own service to the scene: THE Benelux wave gothic electro industrial party and concert calendar KAGAN KALENDER.

My personal taste in music has actually shifted slightly more towards indie & electro over the past few years. I love my music to be more song based and still have some pop-feel to it. Therefore the current wave of post wave and electro acts pleases me a lot more. And this still is true to my roots, as my love for music started back in 1985 with the release of Depeche Mode's Shake The Disease.
