Jens de Langer:
Jens de Langer is mainly a true dedicated music lover. He wrote his own songs when he was 8 years old and played drums and percussion for 7 years before he started dj-ing.
After some experimental projects, Jens started producing in 2002. With software like Reason he made “The Sidewalk” and did a limited pressing of 300 copies himself. This track got listed in an Essential Mix in 2004. In the couple of years after that, Jens developed himself, with better software and equipment and produced several tracks, like “Colour Me Blue”, “See” and a remix of “Don’t Phunk With My Heart”, by the Black Eyed Peas.
As a DJ and as a producer Jens de Langer has passed various (sub) styles of electronic music, from progressive- to electro house, but also inspired by music from the eighties, italo disco, dub, jazz and indie rock. Jens: “music catches me when it’s not definable as one style or genre. I love sounds that fade borders and I think that really good music just starts where genres end.”
Now, Jens de Langer has found his musical Self in a more authentic blend of driving tech-house with flavours of deep, black funk. Not really coincidentally while he started working at 90watts. In the early months of 2009 he found this new home base in Amsterdam, which is one of the fastest rising tech-house labels in the Netherlands. On 90watts he released “Life Is Synchronicity”, inspired on spiritual principles of life.
Besides the hard business of running the public relations and promotion of 90watts, Jens works on new tracks which will see daylight this summer.
We are proud to welcome Arjuna Schiks to the 90watts label for a release and some remixes. Arjuna visited us in the 90watts studio and there was a really good chemistry in the air, which felt as a fruitful basis for a strong collaboration.
Arjuna Schiks
Arjuna was born and raised in Amsterdam. With parents who own a New Age shop, Arjuna was always surrounded by New Age, Meditation and world music. The first time he got really inspired was at the age of 8 when he heard the ambient record ‘Sounds of the Heart’. At the age of 15 he really started to go to proper dance events. Artists like Anthony Rother, Orbital, Richie Hawtin and Johannes Heil were the last push and to start a career as a producer.
Throughout the years he made hundreds of tracks. His style varies between ambient, tech- house, electro and electronically produced modern classical music. His sound is characterized by a very melodic and mainly warm electronic vibe. During his steamy sets he will take you on into dreamy yet energetic level. Richie Hawtin versus Ambient and Johannes Heil versus Philip Glass. This is Arjuna Schiks.
In the year 2007 he was in the finals of the ‘Grote Prijs Van Nederland’ one of the biggest producers contests of the Netherlands. In 2008 Arjuna won the Vinylized -most talented producer of the year- award! For this reason he released his first EP on vinyl on All is One Records which has been highly praised by critics.
Arjuna has been performing live at Mystery Land, Dance Valley, Valtifest, Loveland, Chemistry, Lief festival, Amsterdam Dance Event, Paradiso, FFWD Parade, All is One, Studio80, Fire, Winkel van Sinkel, Amsterdams Glorie, Twstd, The Getaway, Westerunie, Gasten zonder Grenzen, Pozerscene, de Bunker, Stubnitz, Club Up, Club 8 and many more.
Arjuna composed and produced music for the tv-commercial of the fashion brand Diesel (DSL 55) 2008 and for fall/winter fashion show during the Amsterdam Fashion week 2007.
Also Arjuna is working in the studio at several co productions with Isis (a.k.a. dj 100% Isis). His first record release, which is a collaboration with Willie Wartaal (Jeugd van Tegenwoordig), is a big hit. Their track ‘Konijntje’ was in the Top 5 hit in Holland and Belgium. In 2009 Arjuna was rewarded for one of the 9 most talented producers of 2009 by DJ Broadcast, one of the best and serious dance magazines of Holland. In that same year he released on Trapez (GER), made a remix for Deadmau5 and released and EP on Team Records which was supported by Laurent Garnier.
