Partyraiser

Years of triumph followed for Partyraiser, with big performances in The Netherlands and abroad, including his own solo events, One Man // Half Machine in Amsterdam. And Machine City in Ahoy Rotterdam. Who made him the first ever Hardcore artists with a solo event at that location.

In October 2008 he joined forces with Platinum Agency, with whom he has been cooperating to this day and became the most frequently booked hardcore DJ. From this solid platform, Partyraiser traveled to all corners of the globe still to this day and invaded more mainstages than a seven year old can count to. His hit list includes kickass concepts like Defqon.1 Festival, Decibel Outdoor Festival, Dominator, Thunderdome, Masters of Hardcore, Intents Festival, Harmony of Hardcore, Reverze, Defqon.1 Festival Australia, Ibiza Goes hard, Drop Zone, and many others. In October 2013 Partyraiser was chosen to host his own area at Thrillogy in the Jaarbeurs Utrecht. He invited friends, colleagues and personal heroes to celebrate this loud and special occasion with him. Thrillogy sold out for the first time and this crown on his career has left a deep and lasting impression. In the Summer of 2013, Partyraiser founded his own record label, Partyraiser Records. A platform for his musical output, yet also for new talented producers who deserve a chance in the spotlight. The label was chosen as ‘Best New Hardcore Label’ at the 2014 HDM Awards in the UK and still this day the label is a very strong name in the Uptempo scene. Tomorrowland where Partyraiser performed almost every year, like his closings during the Q-Dance hostings are some of his personal favorites.

In 2015 “his huge hit together with DT “Sound Becomes one” became the number 1 Hardcore track of that year. And the same he did in 2017 with the huge hit: Ode to the godfather. Who became another number 1 hit of that year. Partyraiser was the creater of the now so well known “Uptempo” genre. And played it world wide, from Japan to the USA and from the Netherlands to Australia. He does it all! With an every year sold out: BKJN vs Partyraiser event in Zoetermeer and the famous and hardest sold out Birthday party in the San Souci, Partyraiser is still on top of the game. And is not ready yet 3 decades later!

After 30 years of sitting in the front seat of a mad rollercoaster at full speed, the end of the ride is not yet in sight. Stronger than ever, still harder than the rest, still fully booked every weekend and 100% mayhem at every set he plays. Can you handle the heat of a raging BPM attack? Try to keep up with the beats of Partyraiser!
