Let The Bass Kick — The Tracks That Made Him
The bass kicked in 2008 and honestly never stopped. Here are the records that matter.
The one that started it
'Let The Bass Kick' (2008). If you know, you know. Piercing synths over hip-hop weight — it turned a Dutch club DJ into a worldwide name overnight. Then LMFAO jumped on it in 2009, it charted in NL (#23), Belgium (#17) and Australia, and went Silver in the UK.
After that he kept going: 'Who Is Ready To Jump', 'Together', 'Make Some Noise' with Junxterjack, 'Makin' Papers' with Lupe Fiasco and Too $hort. The man doesn't slow down.
The remix CV
Michael Jackson, Guetta's 'Sexy Bitch', Black Eyed Peas, Enrique, Kelly Rowland — he's remixed all of them. Plus productions for 50 Cent, Kesha and Akon.
And in 2018 he co-produced 'Machika' for J Balvin with ChildsPlay. Top 15 on Hot Latin Songs. That's the Caribbean bubbling sound he grew up on, straight into the global charts.
Hear them in person
He still drops all of these in his sets. Outdoors, at night, loud. Check the dates.
