Nakadia

----------

Nakadia has carried her unstoppable energy since childhood while growing up in the poor Thai countryside without electricity or running water, living in a self-build house on less than 1 USD per day. But Nakadia still has sparkling eyes when she looks back at her happy childhood as she didn’t miss anything. This pure happiness about live itself she kept until today – half a lifetime later, touring the globe as a world-famous artist.

The journey between Nakadia’s early days and her global success was a long and difficult one, which started in 2002, when she was invited by a friend to a first visit of Europe. On her first night out she discovered Techno and she immediately knew: “This is what I was searching for! I was born to be a DJ!”

A turbulent journey began. She devoted herself to finding the perfect sonic fuse. In 2003 she moved to Koh Samui and her gigs on this tourist island launched Nakadia’s international career within a remarkably short time. Crafting her sound without any guidance, in a country marked by the mainstream, she pioneered the rise of the underground in her home country, conquering the rest of the world at the same time. Her daily fight against prejudices just made her stronger, proving herself over- and over again in this male dominated industry where she often was belittled as “the little cute Thai girl”. Instead of being frustrated, she always kept her positive energy and no setback made her loose the famous Thai smile, always moving forward, pushing herself from one milestone to the next without support by anyone who could have opened the doors more easily.

In 2010 Nakadia moved to Berlin as her constantly filled tour schedule made it impossible to keep working out of Thailand. By the end of 2019 she pinned over 1600 performances across 72 countries to her gig list, playing at “Tomorrowland”, “Love parade”, “Loveland”, “Sonne Mond und Sterne”, “Parookaville”, Nature One, as well as “Watergate”, “Tresor” or “Sysiphos” in Berlin, “D Edge” Sao Paulo, “The Egg” London, “Marktkantine” Amsterdam, “Rainbow Serpent Festival” in Australia, as well as countless other top venues-, festivals- and events.

After being discovered by Yann Pissenem during a performance at “Sankeys” in the summer of 2013, she became a fixed name on Ibiza, performing regularly at hotspots like “Ushuaia”, “Amnesia”, “Sankeys”, “Zoo Project” or “Blue Marlin”. As a promoter she made history in Thailand with her legendary “Nakadia welcomes” nights, hosting legendary Sven Väth 7 times across her home country.

Nakadia has always felt the urge to spend more time producing her own sounds, but her busy touring schedule never left much time for studio work. Early releases between 2008 and 2016 gave a first glimpse of what she’s capable of. Finally, in 2018, she presented us with some exceptional techno tracks. A first EP was released on Filth on Acid in early 2019, and stayed in Beatport’s top 10 techno releases for two weeks. The EP was a statement, but just the start of a new chapter of Nakadia’s career. Another EP, signed by Carl Cox for his Intec imprint, was released in June 2019, followed by regular releases on labels like Set About or Codex.

In 2020, at the beginning of the Corona crisis, Nakadia was a part of the first major live streams which were seen by millions before streaming became a daily normality. From her home in Berlin she performed a vinyl only set for Mr Afterparty’s first streaming marathon and only two weeks later she was part of the very first Beatport Re-Connect. Nakadia’s frequent online performances resulted in a sharp rise of social media followers and made industry professionals from across the globe aware of the unique artist she really is. Beside Nakadia’s online rise during the crisis, she also finally found the time to write down her unique story, which resulted in the release of her autobiography “Positive Energy” in March of 2021. The book earned Nakadia even more respect within the DJ community and beyond and has now even caught the attention of Hollywood.

Bonnie X Clyde

----------------

The multi-talented duo rose the ranks behind a unique blend of trap, bass, and pop production coupled with Lopynski’s euphonious vocals that grace nearly every track in their catalog.

They found early success with the strength of their 2017 track “Bass Jam”, off of their debut EP ‘Wanted’, that charted at #1 on the SiriusXM dance music charts for seven weeks. Since then, BONNIE X CLYDE have solidified themselves as one of the biggest names in dance music behind hits like “The Unknown” and “Love Is Killing Me”.

In 2022, the duo released their debut album Tears In Paradise to rave reviews from fans and critics alike. The album, released via Lowly, features standout singles “Another You” and “In Too Deep”. It serves as a detour from their typical bass-driven music and shows off a matured sound as they explore the genre of melodic house to help tell their story of love lost, and friendship rekindled.

2023 has proven to be a milestone year for BONNIE X CLYDE. They surpassed one million monthly listeners on Spotify for the first time, saw their track “Need Ya” reach #1 on the Dance Radio charts / #2 on Billboard Dance charts, and Tears In Paradise has soared to over 50+ million cumulative streams. Their single “Memory” signals the start of their post-Tears In Paradise era and kicks off their headline ‘More Than Just A Memory’ tour that includes stops at Lollapalooza, Electric Zoo, EDC Orlando & many more.

Across his dozens of hit releases, the GRAMMY-nominated producer, DJ, and thought-leader has racked up hundreds of millions of plays, and charted multiple Billboard, Beatport, and US Dance Radio #1s. Having broken through more than a decade ago, on the forefront of the explosion of dance music in North America, Page has built a massive live following. Touring consistently throughout the years, Page has performed at major festivals across the world, including Coachella, EDC, Electric Zoo, Burning Man, and Ultra Music Festival, as well as countless shows in the world’s top hard ticket venues and clubs. He currently tours nearly year-round and holds a Las Vegas residency at the newly-opened Elia Beach Club. The long-term Vegas resident DJ has previously held a four-year residency at Light & Daylight and prior to that, a three-year residency at the Wynn. Page curates and hosts a weekly radio mix show, ‘In The Air,’ which airs on Sirius XM and is syndicated online and on terrestrial radio internationally to dozens of countries. ‘In The Air’ has broadcast weekly uninterrupted for over a decade, and is approaching episode number 600! Outside of music,

Page’s two main passions are technology and the environment – particularly where the two intersect. From his solar-powered recording and production studio, he is always on the cutting edge, an early adopter and advocate of new tech. In recent years, Page has been a regular collaborator on music-focused projects with Tesla and SpaceX as well as provided them with originally produced music. His newly launched podcast ‘Airwave’ is an exploration of how people make their art and how technology plays an essential role in that process. Focusing on where music and technology converge to tell the stories behind the artists and architects of creativity and technology – the podcast is largely conversational but doesn’t shy away from going deep and technical. Page’s Quick Tips project is his way to pass on his vast wealth of knowledge and experience to an eager audience of musicians and producers, as well as the broader creator community, helping them crack the creativity code and improve their work flow.

MPQT is comprised of a series of 750+ short-form tips and 50+ blog post deep-dives available online and in physical card sets. Recently Page partnered up with technology leader OWC to distribute the cards and connect with creators as a brand ambassador. In 2013, Page brought to life the groundbreaking ‘Morgan Page Presents 3D Tour,’ a forward-thinking, immersive visual experience utilizing 3D technology that was nascent at the time. In 2014, partnering with Oculus, DTS, and Alienware, he also produced the first-ever virtual reality lyric video for standout single ‘In The Air.’ Followed by an Oculus partnership to produce a Gear VR mobile experience for his single “Open Heart.” morgan-page.com Instagram.com/morganpage twitter.com/morganpage facebook.com/morganpage

Ora Presesnts Rinzen ( Mau5trap)

Time: 10pm-2am 

Tickets.oraseattle.com 

Rinzen

-------

Rufus Du Sol. 

Rinzen is an electronic artist from Los Angeles seeking to build entire worlds with his music. Born Michael Sundius, Rinzen began his career in 2017 when he was signed by deadmau5 to
the Canadian’s renowned electronic imprint, mau5trap. Known for launching the careers of artists like Skrillex and Rezz, mau5trap became the home base for Rinzen as he went on to release 3 consecutive EPs on the label.

Following the success of the EPs, Rinzen soon found himself on tour with deadmau5 himself, performing over 20 dates with Zimmerman across the world, from Verti Music Hall in Berlin, to Fabrik in Madrid, to Printworks in London.

The success of the tour thrust Rinzen into the international spotlight, earning him recognition from Mixmag, DJ Mag, Billboard Dance and Dancing Astronaut, with all 4 publications hand-selecting Rinzen as an artist-to-watch.

Firmly cemented as a talent on the rise, Rinzen’s music next found a home on an impressive pedigree of international labels: everywhere from John Digweed’s legendary Bedrock label, to  Sasha’s Last Night on Earth imprint and Rufus Du Sol’s Rose Ave. With his music now being played by global titans like Tale Of Us and Carl Cox, 

Rinzen soon became a sought-after entity for many of North America’s iconic festivals, making appearances at EDC Las Vegas, Ultra Music Festival, and Lightning in a Bottle.

Having made a name for himself across the underground and wider dance scene alike, Rinzen now turns his attention to one label in particular: Lane 8’s This Never Happened imprint.
The label stands at the cusp of a burgeoning melodic house movement, with Rinzen poised as the imprint’s breakout new star following the announcement of his debut album on the label: Bend to the Light.

The album, slated for April 2024, promises a 10-track cinematic journey from Rinzen, offering his most comprehensive body of work to date. With the album on the horizon and a world tour to follow, the rise of Rinzen has only just begun.

Genre: Drum and Bass

Time: 10pm-2am

Culture Shock

-----------------

James Pountney aka Culture Shock has gone from the passing of an unmarked demo, to arguably the drum & bass scene's most ground-breaking producer. Since his first release on Moving Shadow in 2004, Culture Shock has consistently pushed boundaries with his sonic artwork, creating a diverse discography which has become symbolic within one of the UK's most withstanding genres.

With a classically trained background and finding a natural talent in writing music, it was only a matter of time before he refined his interests. After first discovering jungle on pirate radio stations, percussion and drums quickly became a passion. Alongside mentorship from one of the most technically adept producers in the scene, namely Dom & Roland, James honed in on both his creativity and aptitude to become a figure in his own right.

After his aforementioned first release on Moving Shadow, he would shortly after sign exclusively to drum & bass' biggest label, Ram Records, and neither party have looked back since. Over his decade spanning tenure on the label he would release a series of now legendary tracks, with underground club focused cuts like

'Troglodyte' ensuring his music would be a mainstay of dancefloors and festival tents around the world, while anthemic tracks like the highly anticipated and long awaited 'City Lights' and the euphoric 'Have It All' would rule the radio airways.

However, it was in late 2017 that Culture Shock really took his musical output to the next level, as he initiated 'The Sequence Series,' a series of singles over the following 18 months which would culminate in the release of 'Sequence,' his most accomplished work to date. The bundle included Radio 1 Hottest Record 'There For You,' club mainstays 'Get Physical' & 'Take Control,' 'Bunker' one of the most successful tracks of the last five years and 'Renaissance,' which was championed by Annie Mac and spent five weeks on Radio 1 playlist. The leading UK tastemaker describes Culture Shock as "one of the most innovative d&b producers out there, delivering quality time and time again."

To coincide with the release, Culture Shock hosted 'Sequence' to a sold out room 1 of the iconic fabric nightclub in London, the most significant headline show of his extensive live career as a touring DJ, which has included tours of North America, Australia & New Zealand, Japan, South Africa and across Europe, and appearances at festivals including Glastonbury, EDC Las Vegas, Tomorrowland, Creamfields and many more.

With the sequel to 'Sequence' in the works, and an upcoming London headline show at Night Tales in Hackney in November 2019, it seems like we are only starting to see what Culture Shock is really capable of.

Exploring a more dark-tech sound earned him a heavy recognition by Armin van Buuren & A State of Trance. This led to a long-term exclusive relationship with Armada Music where he became a regular on the iconic Armind imprint. 

KhoMha has released stellar work alongside an extensive list of top shelf artists that most producers can only dream of. Armin van Buuren originals ‘Caught In The Slipstream’ & ‘The Expedition’, Markus Schulz & Haliene – ‘Tidal Wave’ got the KhoMha golden touch while remixes of trance classics Veracocha – ‘Carte Blanche’ and Vicent De Moor’s ‘Fly Away’ furthered his popularity. Collaborations with Markus Schulz, Purple Haze (Sander Van Doorn), Andrew Rayel, Orjan Nilsen, as well as other well received remixes followed. 

Pulse-raising original productions ‘The Dark Knight’, ‘Dusk Riddles’, ‘Tierra’, ‘Laberinto’, ‘Colorblind’ and ‘Earthshine’ have been major highlights in the KhoMha discography. His track ‘Hydra’ made it to the big screen on the soundtrack of Hollywood movie ‘Wild Card’.

His late dad who was a distinguished drummer in a jazz band taught him how to play drums at a very young age. When Jeffrey was a teenager, his sister started introducing him to electronic music. From that moment on he developed his innovative style of mixing and producing. Soon he began hitting turntables and performing under the aliases Toxic and Jeff Bounce in clubs, house parties, but also in different festivals. He played twice at the Loveparade and three times at Defqon 1 under these aliases.

2007-2018

For the last eight consecutive years with stage name Dash Berlin, Jeffrey has been in the top 20 of the well-known DJ Mag Top 100 poll, rendering the most popular DJ’s throughout the world, ranked #7 in 2012. In 2010 he won the DJ Mag Top 100 Award for 'Highest New Entry' during the Magazine's ceremony at the Ministry Of Sound in London, beating other famous Dutch DJ's such as Martin Garrix, Hardwell, Armin van Buuren and Tiesto as the highest Dutch entry till date. He received an IDMA award in the category ‘Best High Energy Track’ at the International Dance Music Awards in 2009 and was nominated for an IDMA award several times afterward.

 Cosmic Gate

----------------------------

 From their very first drumbeat, throughto the release of ‘[Forward Ever Backward Never]’ - their‘20 Years’ commemoratinglongplayer,Cosmic Gate’s Nic Chagall and Bossi have proved to be a matchlessmusical union. Achance encounter in aCologne recording studio two decades agoset themon the course to becoming Germany’s most enduringly successfulelectronic music duo.Their original productions have takenthem to thehighest reaches of streaming lists and download charts, whilst their remixography eclectically includes everyone from revered Hollywood composers like James Horner (Avatar/Titanic) to in-scene demigods like Armin van Buuren and Tiësto.Nic&Bossi’s behind-decks-brotherhoodhastriggeredcritical mass in a now uncountable number of countries.

They’ve dominated electronic music capitals andspun at the veritable A-through-Z of major festivals. In the process they’vepicked up a Grammy nomination (in 2019’s Best Remix category), become the highest climber on DJ Mag’s Top 100 chart and racked up numerous other awards &nominationsalong the way. Driven by their critically applauded albums, Spotify-busting singles like ‘am2pm’, ‘Fall Into You’ and ‘Falling Back’ (each with 5million streams to their name)and scene-defining classics like‘Be Your Sound’, ‘Fire Wire’ and ‘Exploration of Space’ (10million Spotify streams),their star on dance music’s walk of fame has long since been laid. 

As DJs, kinetically bouncing off the others energy, week in, week out, Cosmic Gate continue to push floorsto supernova. In North America they’ve smashed the biggest festivals like EDC, Ultra, Electric Zoo, IleSoniq, Spring Awakening, Paradiso, Global Dance, Veld, Dreamstateand more.Road-blocking clubs and events like Space (both Miami & New York), Governors Island NY, LA’s Palladium and the Great Hall at Brooklyn’s Avant Gardnerhas become their SOP.Floors have felt similar pressurein hotspots worldwide.Among them have beenTomorrowlands inBelgium & Brazil,ASOTs internationally,Creamfields, Ministry& SW4 in the UK&Ultra Europe, Untold Romania, Mysteryland&Luminosity in Holland andParookaville, Boothaus&Nature One in their native Germany. Their WMC/MMW Miami Sunset Cruises have long since passed intoclubbinglegend and the pair famouslysold out a 2000 capacity solo show on the island of Honolulu.

Grammy nomination: the final month of 2018 Nic&Bossi were nominated for their first Grammy award. Selected in the Best Remixer category, their work on Gabriel & Dresden and Sub Teal’s ‘Only Road’from a year earlier drew nomination praise from the academy. The remix was further described by DJ Mag as “masterful”, with “alchemic sequencing”, “shrewd use of context” and was “wily” in its “sound design”

C.G. Productions& Albums:In their homeland, Cosmic Gatehasmaintained a consistently high level of mainstreamsuccess, charting no fewer than 7 top 40 singles. Further afield ‘Fire Wire’signalled the pair’s arrival, becoming a pan-European chart smash and hitting the top ten in a number of countries. 

Albums have, and continue to play a substantial part in their production career. Most recently that’s been evidenced by‘20 Years’, which was released in August of 2019. Significantly subtitled ’[Forward Ever Backward Never’], it was conceived as an album thatinnovatively took their body of work to new floors and audiences. Includingnew Cosmic Gate productions, it also incorporated 2.0 renovations of CG anthems. Further it featured reworks of tunes personally inspirational to CG, as well as new takes from other artists on classic Cosmic moments. Its first single releases brought a brace of Beatport hits with the MINT-playlisted ‘Come With Me’ and the “profound” (said DJ Mag) “9/10” ranked ‘Need To Be Loved’ both hitting the #1 position.

The album also gave rise to the 20 Years live tour, which to date has reached 30 cities globally.Of the tour’s LA stop, EDM.com said: “Los Angeles played host to one of their biggest shows on the tourwhere they performed at the legendary Hollywood Palladium. Their extended three-hour set included guest performances by JES, Eric Lumiere, and Emma Hewitt, who have lent their vocals to some of the duo's biggest tracks”. The Dallas Observer meanwhile hailed their Stereo Live, Houston show as a “cruise through two decades of varied, quality productions. 

’20 Years’ was preceded by the two ‘Chapters’ of thelongplayer‘Materia’ - the release of which musically bookended the group’s 2017. It was the album mothership for a clutch of new Cosmic Gate singlesand releases. Among them were‘Fall Into You’,‘Edge Of Life’, ‘Noom’, the Beatport #1 ‘am2pm’, ‘AR’,‘Dynamic’ (“melody and grit in equal proportions” said DJ Mag’s 8/10 review) and others.Following their ‘Start To Feel’ long-player (more info below), the releasescored a MIXMAG Album of the Month plaudit, representing - said the magazine - an “impressive”, “roots-return” to their origin sound. Upon their release the ‘Materias’were met with comparable sales success, hitting iTunes’ top 10s in 9 countries and reaching the #2 spot in both the United States and Canada.

The period 2015 - 2016 saw Cosmic Gate continue to embrace the collaboration medium through a number of high-profiles co-production projects. Among them was ‘Embargo’, which was the result of studio time shared with Armin van Buuren. The track was subsequently featured on the latter’s 2015 album, ‘Embrace’. A year later Nic&Bossi teamed up with Ferry Corsten to record ‘Event Horizon’. Garnering substantial praise from fans, DJs and press alike, it topped Beatport’s Trance chart in October of 2016.

Released in the summer of 2014, Cosmic Gate used their sixth album ‘Start To Feel’ to inspire fans to experience electronic music in a “deeper, wider, more complete way”. It’s first single - the Eric Lumiere-sung ‘Falling Back’ – was described as “9.5/10” scoring “anthem in a can” by the UK’s DJ Mag. Further singles including ‘So Get Up’, Yai (Here We Go Again’)and ‘Fair Game’ cemented its reputation. Upon release, the album hit the iTunes’ top 10 in the US, Canada, Germany and Russia. A MIXMAG 9/10 rated release, ‘Start To Feel’was hailed as “audio chemistry and production physics in their most quantum forms”. It also catalysedthe Start To Feel bus tour, which famously saw Nic&Bossi perform 13 shows in just 16 days, coast-to-coast across North America, playing to over 20,000 fans.

In 2011 the duo released ‘Wake Your Mind’.It produced ‘Be Your Sound’ - a single that MIXMAG suggested “finally unseats ‘Fire Wire’ as Cosmic Gate’s best-known-for track”. With its official video just off 16 million views on YouTube, it bagged anIDMA nomination in 2012, (with the JES-sung‘Flying Blind’ following suit a year later). 

Cosmic Gate’s album movements began with ‘Rythm& Drums’ (in 2001), ‘No More Sleep’ which followed a year later and‘Earth Mover’ in ‘06. The latter was the album platform for the club hits ‘Analog Feel', ‘Should Have Known’ and the IDMA-nominated ‘I Feel Wonderful’. ‘Sign of the Times’ arrived 3 years later, bringing the vocal anthem ‘Body of Conflict’, a further IDMA-nod for‘Not Enough Time’ and spurred(a then near unheard of) 43-place leap up DJ Mag’s Top 100 chart. It also edged the pair towards a more open-plan electronic music style (later to fully manifest in ‘Wake Your Mind’ and ‘Start To Feel’).

Cosmic Gate’sWake Your Mind marque was subsequently spun off into a number of other areas. WYM Radio is a comprehensively formatted show, which featuresNic&Bossidiscussing and airing their most highly rated tracks of the week. It’ll also encompasses first-listen music premieres and tunes from the deeper side of the CG psyche. The show - which is broadcast on Sirius XM, DI.FM and many other stations - also features comprehensive info on up-and-coming gigs, Nic&Bossi’s Big Bang track of the week and a host of other features, latterly including the ThrowBack weekly classic and their Private Playlist tune. In January of 2019, the show passed its landmark 250th episode. 

Since 2013, Wake Your Mind Records has been the label base for all of Cosmic Gate’s releases. It’s also served as a dais for Cosmic Gate to sign and release music from other artists. Of late, tracks from producers like Maor Levi Greenhaven DJs and Steve Brian, as well as Nic Chagall’s own solo material have featured, alongside co-productions with Ferry Corsten, Markus Schulz, Super8 & Tab and others. Latterly, the Wake Your Mind Sessions compilations have also come to play a part in the WYM make-up, with the third in the series reaching release in March of 2018.

Other remixes:Over their production lifetime, Cosmic Gate’s remixeshave become almost as illustrious as their productions. In essence a blow-by-blow of A-list artists, Nic&Bossi have lent their studio know-how to releases byArmin van Buuren, Tiësto, Deadmau5, Paul van Dyk, Above &Beyond’sOceanLab project, Markus Schulz, John O’Callaghan, Gareth Emery and Ferry Corsten. In early 2010 Atlantic Records US approached them to remix James Horner’s ‘I See You’ – the main theme from the film Avatar. This run culminated in Nic&Bossi being nominated for Best Remixer at the 2010 IDMAs and not to forget their Grammy nominated remix for „Gabriel & Dresden - The Only Road“ in 2019 (see extra paragraph on page one)

BIOGRAPHY

SANDER VAN DOORN // PURPLE HAZE

As a generation-defining artist that reshapes our perception of what dance music can be, Sander van Doorn is without a doubt one of the world’s most essential, influential and popular DJ/producers in dance music today. Sander van Doorn entered the musical scene in 1995, aged just sixteen. His brother’s latest gadget at the time, a Roland Groovebox 303, caught his attention. He was astounded when he first experienced the amount of creativity that could be put into making electronic music.

Time and time again, Sander would borrow his brother’s Groovebox and his nephew’s vinyl records and he played the life out of those records. Since then, Sander’s heart belonged to music and it still does today. Sander has created his own inimitable sound and style. He is a producer at heart, and started DJing to create exposure for his productions. It’s basically impossible to appoint one specific genre to him; his music gets influenced by a very broad spectrum of factors. He continues to be an immensely prolific and diverse producer, with his own monstrous solo output plus massive collabs helping him to amass millions of plays on YouTube and Spotify. Gold Skies has picked up well over 60 million plays alone, making for one of the biggest hits of his career so far. His A&R skills show no sign of faltering either with his DOORN Records imprint unleashing a steady stream of big names and hot new talents alike.

2017 saw him re-launch his exciting alias Purple Haze, dedicated to a “sharper, darker, rougher” sound. The project was unveiled at Ultra Music Festival with a spectacular audio-visual live show that vividly brought to life his new concept. Later in the year he released the debut Purple Haze album, SPECTRVM: a riot of dark trance and tough techno with some standout vocals to boot. Rather than taking shine away from his usual SvD sounds, the new project has created a positive, synergized feedback loop in his studio, bringing a yin to his existing yang. “Too often I’ve seen artists lose their focus when they try to combine too many different sounds” he says, “but I get so much creative energy from working on this project that it’s actually added to the creative flow for Sander van Doorn.”

It’s just the start for Purple Haze, with some very big plans in the works — and with such a positive reaction from fans, more material is hotly anticipated. Today, Sander has performed thousands of shows in every corner of the world and released numerous solo records, yet he is still part of a group of innovative and progressive artists. Sander’s creative process exists of re-inventing musical styles, taking risks in regards to the sound he creates and most importantly staying ahead of the masses. Regular appearances at world-beating clubs and festivals like Creamfields, Tomorrowland, UNTOLD Festival and Electric Daisy Carnival pepper his hectic diary which sees him plays to tens of thousands across the globe every month.

With three full-length albums, numerous hit-singles, remixes of the world’s biggest artists, sold-out gigs in all major venues and festivals worldwide, his own successful record label and a weekly radio show named Identity, Sander van Doorn continues his musical journey into the heart of fans around the world.
