Born
(1968-10-14) 14 October 1968 (age 55) Haarlem, Netherlands
Originated from a musical family, he was pushed to play the violin and the piano.[2] In the mid-80s, he was listening to the radio at night and heard a disco record, when suddenly he realised he was listening to a different record, this was his first experience of mixing records. At the age of 13, a friend of him, showed him what mixing was all about, using two turntables, which was what got him into DJing.[3] With a loan from his parents[4] he bought equipment to start producing. He started making mixes for a number of local Pirate radio's. One day he sent in a selfmade mixtape to Ferry Maat's radioshow the Soulshow. Ferry was so enthusiastic about his mix, that from that moment on Ferry Maat started the Bond van Doorstarters[5] (a weekly 15 minute mix item in the Soulshow).
In 1988 he made his first production, together with Sander Hoeke, under the name of Baze & Hucke with "Pitbull Terror". It responded to the current events surrounding attacks by pit bull terriers. He was successful for the first time in 1991. Together with René ter Horst (Chocolate Puma) he produced the album "Windows" under the name Sil, which was popular in the clubs. This also worked with Villa Ducato. The owner of his record company also linked him to Erick E. (Erick Eerdhuizen), with whom he collaborated under the name Pancake. In 1993 "Don't Turn Your Back On Me" became a popular release of this project.
In 1997 he started the "Samplitude" series.[6] This series of EP's had a large amount of releases, especially between 1997 and 2002. In 1998 he collaborated only once, with Armin van Buuren as Wodka Wasters, with "Pass The Bottle".[7] In the summer of 2000 he made his breakthrough in the UK with "Opium Scumbagz".[8] This Latin-oriented record was sung by his girlfriend. In 1999, he provided a remix of Moby’s song "Bodyrock".
Basoski has had two hits in the UK Singles Chart, "Waterman" (#45, 2005) and "Opium Scumbagz" (#56, 2000).[9]
