Music like Joris Voorn

Joris Voorn (Dutch pronunciation: [ˈjɔrɪs voːrn]; born 25 February 1977 in Tilburg, Netherlands is a Dutch DJ and producer who resides in Amsterdam. Voorn is the co-owner of the Amsterdam-based labels Rejected (with Edwin Oosterwal) and Green.

Like many musicians, Voorn had a strong affiliation with music at a young age, growing up in the city of Tilburg where he learned how to play the guitar and violin. His father was also a composer of music.

During his education he won a DJ competition in Enschede which kick-started Voorn' music career. Since 1997 Voorn has been regularly booked for gigs and had a residency at the ATAK. However his first production was not until 2002 when he released his "Muted Trax" EP. This release, as well as support from Carl Craig, Derrick May and Laurent Garnier made him decide to (temporarily) give up interior architecture and focus on his DJing career. In 2003 his "Lost Memories" EP became another underground hit. In the same year Voorn was crowned Talent of the Year at the Dutch DJ Awards.
