Daan
Music has always been the common thread in my life. What once began in an attic room, with a turntable, a cassette recorder and a childlike fascination for sound, has grown into a deep-rooted passion and now a professional existence.
My record collection counts over 3500 records, ranging from ABBA to Zappa and from House to Strauss. My musical taste is broad, but always revolves around energy and rhythm, around music that gets people moving. Cumbia, Latin, Afrobeat, Ethiopian jazz and Reggae form the foundation, complemented by Rock, Punk, Rockabilly, Ambient, House, Early Rave, Techno and Acid. Whatever the audience requests, I play it with love.
As a regular visitor to festivals like Lowlands, Best Kept Secret and Down The Rabbit Hole, I know the power of music in places where everyday routine temporarily has no access. It was precisely there that the idea arose to make my greatest passion my work. No longer just as a visitor, but as part of the whole. Not in front of the stage, but in the stage. A rolling stage.

Martijn Broekman – Vibe Manager at Routemaster Events. My focus: the right sound, the right energy, and a vibe that everyone feels.
Daan asked me to join this project, and I’m glad we’re realizing this together. Our friendship has always been strongly connected with music – from going to festivals and concerts together to hours behind the turntables. Now we use that shared passion to let others experience the same vibe.
We complement each other musically perfectly. Daan has a broad taste and knowledge of diverse genres, while I focus mainly on the electronic side. That combination provides balance, creativity and surprising sets.
Music has been the common thread for me since my youth. At age eight I started playing my first instrument, and from seventeen I’ve been active as a DJ and have organized several events. In recent years I also focus on producing music, with a preference for analog gear like drum machines and synthesizers.
What drives me is the power of music: the right vibe can touch people, connect them and give an unforgettable experience. As Vibe Manager I ensure that the energy and atmosphere are always right.
