Ever since his 2003 landing in the world of electronic music, Eelke Kleijn has been a name synchronous with quality. Fans and enthusiasts worldwide have come to love the sympathetic Dutchman for his affectionate sound, unique productions and energetic DJ sets, which have taken him from sun-soaked Mexico to Russia, and almost everywhere in between. And it's not just the fans that are moved by his work; avid followers include internationally renowned DJs such as Hernán Cattáneo, Sasha and Dave Seaman, who occasionally drop his tracks in clubs and festivals around the world.
Eelke's real breakthrough came in 2006 when Nick Warren included '8 Bit Era' on his 'GU 030: Paris' compilation. A few months later, Global Underground snapped up his debut artist album 'Naturally Artificial', which hit the market late 2007 and received critical acclaim from press and reviewers worldwide. The attention from an international best-selling label also sky rocketed his DJ career, playing 8000-people events such as Moonpark in Buenos Aires, to festival gigs for Renaissance at Dance Valley, Extrema Outdoor, Loveland and Sensation.
