(Djane) Akbal is Eveliene van Vroonhoven, born in Amsterdam on September 8, 1976. She has a rich musical background: at the age of 4 she started playing the flute and studied classical Music. It was back in 1997 she discovered the electronic music scene and decided to buy her first vinyls and learned how to mix. After 2 years of performing in Holland and Germany, and perfectionise her mixing techniques, she decided it was time to move on to a new adventure and spent 6 months on the magical island of Ibiza. After that summer many years of intense traveling started. First it was a quick trip to London to have a first experience in the music-production, together with Process (Sean Williams), their track “the crocodile” got released on the album: Process – Superior Technology. Than the journey continued to Los Angeles / California, where she lived for 1 year and performed at some great parties in LA, San Francisco, Houston and the Nevada desert. The Burning Man Festival was the absolute high-light! Than she went back to Ibiza to be part of another incredible season there. From Ibiza she traveled to Valencia / Spain where she ‘got stuck’ for 2 months, and than the time arrived to fly to the country that would give her some of the best times of her life: Mexico! 5 years filled with performances all over the Republic and in Guatemala at parties and festivals with up to 15.000 people! Yet she could not resist her desire to finally start producing her own music, so she went back to Europe to get things started. This was in the year 2005. In between that date and the present she lived in Amsterdam, Italy and since June 2009 she is thrilled to be back on Ibiza again! Even though the island has turned much more into a capitalistic machine, the magic is definitely still there and with some artists who are resident on the island she is now working on quite some promising projects.
