Biography
Over a decade and a half of drum&bass in Belgium. Gone from throwing small bashes to rocking every major festival in the country several times over. Running Jungle Fever (national radio Studio Brussel - Mondays) on a weekly basis for 4 years straight. Since the show stopped he's been a regular guestmixer for Switch and he gathered the number one spot as most popular Monthly Playground Mix.
As of September 2011 he's back on national radio with his own show called "Murdock", dropping the very best in dubstep and drum&bass (and beyond!) every Friday night from 11pm to midnight, mixing and presenting, and getting listeners ready for the weekend.
Murdock released the mix-cd 'Jungle Fever Vol 1' in Dec '09, which was immediately sold out, and was followed by Vol 2 in Dec '10 which flew off the shelves just the same. He compiled big tunes by friends like Sigma, Camo&Krooked, Total Science, Danny Byrd, Trei, Crystal Clear and many more to form the ultimate homegrown drum&bass mix series. Vol 1 contained 3 tracks he produced with boy wonder Netsky.
He launched Radar Records in March '10 with Netsky's 'Your Way'/'Daydreaming' 12" selling like hot cakes. That 12" was succeeded by the first two releases in the Radar Remix series, which sees a number of classic Belgian dance tracks remixed by the drum&bass greats. So far Netsky, KG, Break and Nymfo have delivered smashing versions of original music by Shameboy, Buscemi, Magnus and Ultrasonic7, with support by London Electricity, Andy C, Danny Byrd, A.I., Slum Dogs, Total Science and UKF.
Murdock has just released the first EP on his new Broken Music label, which sets out to release electronic music by Belgian producers, transcending all genre boundaries. The first EP is by Requake & Badklaat and is supported by Jakwob, Inspector Dubplate, Lefto, Syndaesia, Beezy and Dubba Jonny, to name a few. Watch out for upcoming releases by Brownz, Bloodfire and Le Cousin, and remixes by Science, BunZero and Metrobox.
Currently, Murdock is spending time in the studio. The collaborations with Netsky, 'Shut Mouth' and 'Hooked On You' have started to live their own live on the net, while his work with Atmospherix is slowly starting to see the light of day. Stay tuned for the SMFM track 'Twisted' in the Murdock&Atmospherix remix!
Murdock promotes Breakdown in Hasselt and Genk and stepped up the game with Radar @ Silo, Leuven, Rampage @ Trix, Antwerpen, and Wasted @ ICC, Gent - turning them into the leading drum&bass events of the country and spreading his fame far across the borders.
He rocks the biggest summer festivals like Dour (8 years in a row!), 10 Days Off, Tomorrowland, Pukkelpop and Laundry Day on a yearly basis, regularly turning up the heat on 10000+ crowds.
Murdock spent time abroad rocking Capetown, Buenos Aires, London, Barcelona and more, and has played alongside Doctor P, Pendulum, Chase&Status, Andy C, Sub Focus, DJ Hype and DJ Marky on several occassions. Look out for the next releases on Radar Records and the biggest drum&bass and dubstep event Belgium has ever seen... coming soon.
