? ARTIST ? De Kunstenaar (Netherlands) ? SUPPORT ? @dekunstenaar http://www.de-kunstenaar.nl/ ? FACEBOOK ? https://www.facebook.com/dekunstenaarmixes ? ADDITIONAL INFO ? "De Kunstenaar" is the Dutch term for "The Artist". But why did he choose De Kunstenaar as his name? That’s because of his second hobby - which is that he likes to paint. Music is art too, so here we are. De Kunstenaar started creating tribute mixtapes, mainly to expand his mixing capabilities to the fullest - and to be clear, meaning no offence to the artists - it was not his intention to make the audience think these mixes were made by the artist(s) themselves. It's disappointing not every artist sees it like this. Well, his life certainly is a 4-beat loop: Eat, Work, Love, Sleep. And this in repeat mode. Most mixes by "De Kunstenaar" are based on a 4-beat loop, because that is so nice and easy for the brain to listen to. His love for electronic music started when he first entered a club called Zillion, in Antwerp (Belgium) back in 1999 or 2000. He admired the DJs that played there - and all he could do was dream about standing behind those decks himself one day - no matter how much effort it would cost. Of course Tiësto was his great inspirer in those days :) Besides his hobby mixes which you will find here , "De Kunstenaar" also has a fulltime job at the office - a warm house - a baby girl - and a caring and loving wife. He also likes to paint once in a while. You can view some of the paintings he has made at his facebook page. Download for free on The Artist Union
