sandrien

Sandrien has been a true music lover since she was just a small kid. She started DJing at the age of 21 after getting inspired by the intense drive of electronic music. The first time she played her favourite records to an audience, she got such an energy boost, that she knew this was just what she wanted.


One of Sandrien's many DJ-talents is to pick just the right tracks and grooves to match the atmosphere; mixing the most beautiful tracks into an unforgettable set. She combines many styles varieing from deep tech house to electro, minimal, acid and techno.

Besides for her deep sets in which melancholy always plays an important role next to utter and exalting happiness, Sandrien is well-known for her enthousiastic appearance. Every inch of her is constantly moving, dancing and jumping as if giving extra fuel to the beats. And even while busy spinning the records and franticly working the faders and switches, she keeps on keeping an eye on the audience. At particularly effective mix-moments when one turns the head or points the finger at her in a reaction of approval she reacts immediatey by laughing merrily in recognition.


Sandrien has played at all the mayor dancefestivals in Holland like Dancevalley, Mysteryland, 5 Days Off, Awakenings festival, Citysounds and Eurosonic and is resident for Electronation, Twstd and Club Stalker. Besides that she also spins at several big or smaller techhouse/techno and electro parties through-out Holland from Groningen till Maastricht. Her international career is taking off after having played several times in clubs in Germany like P1 where she also was a resident.

This year she was nominated for best DJ Newcomer in Holland by the Gouden Kabouter Awards. Her future plans are producing and spreading her wings beyond the Dutch Borders.
