Joris Voorn is a producer and DJ from Rotterdam, Netherlands. Being raised up in a musical family, music became a big part of his life. Around 1995 electronic music caught his attention. Getting deeper into this music when he started DJing in 1997, Joris developed an interest in techno and house music. Concerning his background, Joris started thinking about making his own music and bought the versatile MC-303 groovebox to experiment with synth sounds and drumloops.
In the end of 2000 Joris started building up a small studio to produce his own music, which led to his first release called Muted Trax pt1 on Keynote. His first EP was a success, filling the record boxes of Carl Craig, Laurent Garnier, DJ Rush, Technasia. In 2003 OST memories Pt1 was released on Technasia's SINO label, and was followed by OST memories Pt2, containing the anthem Incident which was heard on dancefloors around the world.
After the succes of Incident Joris released his debut CD album called Future History on the Sino label. Encompassing 3 years of ideas and inspiration, the CD contains 20 diverse tracks, a seamless soundscape that represents his arrival as a relevant techno producer.

Early 2006 a track called MPX_309 was released on Green 02, a crossover techno work that appealed to almost every DJ around, whether playing techno, minimal, house or trance. During the same year Joris has been working on his second album, which is to be released april 2007 in Japan, and may 2007 worldwide. This new piece of work called 'From a deep place' features many different styles of electronic music, ranging from atmospheric interludes to broken beats, house and deep soulful techno. The focus point of the from a deep place-CD has been the listener rather then the dancer. Therefore some of the works have been edited to more DJ friendly tracks for the vinyl release of the album. During the summer of 2007 Joris will be touring with his new live performance to support his album release.
As a DJ and live performer Joris has travelled the globe. He has performed around all Europe, Japan, Taiwan, Hong Kong, China, Singapore, Indonesia, Malaysia, Russia, Brasil, Colombia, Israel, Detroit and New York.
