Artist description Lytrix is a Dutch producer which believes in creating music that moves you and creates a feeling or emotion. The music must be a climaxing experience and can make you fly away. Lytrix' style can be seen as a mix of big beats, trip hop, tekno and jazz. Most songs have undergone a dance point of view. This because of the urge to perform on stage at festivals. All the beats are home-made and NOT ripped of some CD or record, which is happening with a lot of dance bands. This is one of Lytrix' essential goals.

Musical Influences Propellorheads, DJ Shadow, Underworld, Front 242, Leftfield, The Chemical Brothers

Artist History I've started performing in 1995 under the name of EMO, together with my friend Onno Hoogesteger. We played several gigs in local youth centers and pubs, like: Brogum, Midgard, Kalasjnikov, 't Beest, etc. We also took part in a contest "De Zeeuwse Belofte" in 1996. In September 1997 EMO was buried, because the both of us wanted to go on in different kind of styles. Therefore I continued making more experimental music under the name of ‘Lytrix’. The greatest high was participating in a contest called: ´´De Grote Prijs van Nederland´´ This event was held in Paradiso Amsterdam, which is the rocktemple of Holland.
