Biography
SC been interested in technology since he was born. By the age of 6 I started learning music basics.
SC continued to learn this for 10 years, played a lot of instruments and after that time he had enough of classical training so SC decided to go different ways.
SC started getting more interested in dance music because technology was getting better and better and it got fairly reachable to produce dance music by himself.
SC haven’t released anything yet although talks are in progress. He’s got a lot of material to set loose on the crowds.
Signal Chef turns the records for about 8 years now and improved beatmatching and effects manipulation all the time. He plays various styles of music going from minimal going over techhouse to soaring techno. His style can be described as funky characterfull dance music.
He uses lot’s of knobs from mixers to controllers to effects to beef things up and create diversity in his dj-sets. to the music page

Why Signal Chef?
Well, a chef is a cook, and since I mix signals, I thought it would be a good idea to name myself Signal Chef.
SC concentrates more on a mix of various styles ranging from minimal going to some funky clubmusic, house, tribal, techno and who knows what else...
SC will also perform live, where he is able to test his own creations at a crowd.
He will still ride the turntables and kick the mixer for sure!!!
Why Drazztikka?
This is my former dj name that is know for playing thumping techno.
Well, ‘drazz’ represents the bass sounds in a tune, the ‘tikka’ represents the high frequencies in a tune. Together it forms the word ‘Drastic’, which is how thumping techno sounds. :-) For me anyways...
SC has played next to artists like Trish, Redhead, Tom Hades, Yves Bash, Zolex, Monica Electronica, 100% Isis, Tom Smeyers, Chris!,...
SC mostly plays at local underground parties such as Lyghtstryke, Licentious, DEEP, Phreakz, Technology, where vibes and crowds are superb!
