Based in one of Europe's
leading dance capitals, Amsterdam, internationally acclaimed and legendary
Dimitri has made quite a name for himself not only in Europe where he's one of
the most sought after DJs, but also in North America, Australia and the Middle
East.
Dimitri Kneppers, world reknown DJ, Producer, Remixer started his musical career
in 1983 at the age of 16, mixing funk and hip-hop tracks for the Dutch radio
station ABC. Two years later his involvement with Dutch's famous hip-hop band
"Freakaristic" gained Dimitri national fame as one of the best scratchers in
Holland. With this on his track record, Dimitri made his first appearance in
1988 at the newly opened house temple "Roxy" in Amsterdam which is to this day
one of Europe's leading dance Mecca's. Over ten years later, Dimitri still calls
the "Roxy" home where he displays his unique music style playing a diverse blend
of Trance, House, Jungle and Breakbeat.
Following his success in 1989, Dimitri was the pioneer in mixing the first
DJ-mixed dance compilation CD which is now seen as a standard industry format.
By 1991, Dimitri is already playing partys in Ibiza and starts his own label
"BeST" (Beautiful Soul Techno). The label has its own definitive sound, which is
immediately emulated in US Techno Music town number one, Detroit.
