Wednesday, 7 October 2009 10:04

“The road to success and recognition is bumpy, long and not for everybody.
You can only do this if you really love music and can’t imagine yourself doing anything else”

Those words by Leroy Styles himself are maybe the best way to introduce this successful Dutch producer/DJ and a man who understands his craft!

Leroy Styles stands for groove, minimal and funky techno or as he likes to call it “just house”. From the early 90’s, when he fell in love with house music, till this day. When Leroy is considered one of the most respected & successful DJ’s in the Dutch club scene, he’s been ‘putting his money where his mouth is’, depending not only on his talent but on hard work as well!
Determined to bring “quality to the people”, Leroy Styles started a series of creative concepts of his own (Hufters, Electro Rockers) and in September
2006 his other concept, LOOKS at The Thalia was born. Every last Saturday of the month he invites the best national and international DJ’s like Benny Rodrigues, Brian S, René Amesz, Kenny Dope (USA), Dennis Ferrer (USA), Kerri Chandler (USA), Manoo (FR), D-Ramirez (UK), Jazzy Jeff (USA) and many more.
Spending all of his (non existing) spare time in the studio, Leroy Styles is producing like a mad man! His 2007 ‘Booty Bass (dream)’ became a Dutch club classic almost instantly, causing serious damage on the dance floor.
Followed by ‘Jus Bounce’ that caught D-Ramirez’ attention and was featured on his Ministry of Sound compilation cd in 2007. Gaining huge support by worlds finest DJ’s such as Jack de Marseille, Roger Sanchez, Sander Kleinenberg, Rene Amesz, Benny Rodrigues and Steve Angello. ‘Jus Bounce’
also appeared on a Renaissance album, mixed by Paolo Mojo. This fantastic 80-minute Renaissance mix includes tracks from Paolo Mojo himself, Joris Voorn, Cirez D, Blue Foundation, Daso, Sebo K, Loco Dice and many more.
Another Leroy track, God Will Set Me Free (feat. MC Crown), is featured on a Defected In The House Amsterdam 09 compilation.
With a list of (upcoming) releases on his own label Afrazoo, Gregor Salto’s label G-Rex, Sidney Samson’s Samsobeats and Kerri Chandler’s (US) Grey Matter Records, with Manoo, Sunnery James & Ryan Marciano, Geneiro Nvilla, Glowinthedark en Jaquelino Ferreira lining up to do a remix of his tracks, this talented producer/DJ is definitely here to stay. Consider yourselve warned!
