Lager grew up in a family always filled with music and played some guitar and drums at a pretty young age. Although he seemed to be pretty talented, he never really mastered any instrument, untill…
In 2006, he met the guys from “CLiKK”. A small minimal/house-organisation born purely out of their enthousiasm for the music. These guys infected Lager with the virus and would prove to be a big help and inspiration. Other inspirations come in the form of djs such as Sandeep, Pushkarev and Gorje Hewek.
After a period of expirimenting with different mixing techniques and subgenres, Lager seems to have found his sound in warm, deep, and smooth music with a distinctive deep drive. “When I’m searching records, I’m searching for that sound that makes me want to get off my chair and jump behind my decks. I need to feel a warmth from the very first beat I hear.”
In 2010 he entered the “Catwalk DJ-contest” in club Catwalk in Rotterdam after being selected out of over 150 demos and made it to the semi-finals. Not making it all the way, but with enough compliments and feedback to motivate him to keep on spreading his warm sounds.
