Wouter de Moor was born in 1984 and grew up in Soest, the Netherlands. At the age of 15 he started mixing cd’s at the local hockey club and school party’s. After visiting one of Holland’s largest indoor parties, Impulz, Wouter was inspired to start spinning techno. Starting off as a bedroom Dj, he developed his talent to the extent that it became apparent to the people around him that he was serious about becoming a professional Dj. He later won several national Dj-contests and played at some local parties. In May 2004 Wouter was a contestant at a dj contest held in one of Amsterdam’s most popular dj cafe’s, TWSTD, and it was there that the management of Freshtechno.com bookings discovered his talent and decided to take him under their wing. His record choice, and technical ability stood out from the other dj’s who performed at this contest. Soon after, he was given the chance to play at Technoscope, an event organized by Freshtechno.com in club Zyon, Amsterdam. He absolutely rocked the dance floor and the agency immediately gave him a weekly residency. Playing alongside artists such as the Advent, Joey Beltram, Danilo Vigorito, Rino Cerrone, Joel Mull, Green Velvet, Marco Carola, Preach, Gaetano Parisio, Oliver Ho, Pacou and many others, he proved to be a very promising upcoming talent. Inspired by Steve Rachmad, Richie Hawtin, Marco Carola and Fresh Techno’s own Rino Cerrone, he developed his own musical style which was obviously also influenced by Neapolitan grooves and other minimal funky elements that can be found on labels such as Mad-Eye, Minus, Pokerflat and Trapez. Wouter already has a strong following in the Netherlands, and it won’t be long before his sets catch on in the global techno scene. He wants to give something back to the people that matter. Still young, yet as wise as some of the scenes pioneers, he knows that it will not only be his superb technical skills that will blow people away, but also that special connection he has with the crowd during his set. In 2005 Wouter performed in Seoul South-Korea twice and once in Malta. This year he already went to Seoul for the Freshtechno 2006 Korea Tour and for the near future Woute will become a resident at one of Seoul’s finest night club. Wouter will be taking on the rest of Asia at the end of 2006, watch www.wouterdemoor.com for more information about his 2006 tour through China and Japan. At the moment Wouter de Moor is set to turn another page in his career and is currently working in the studio preparing to release some wicked productions on his own label, as well as on other well known labels.
