Biography of Orlando Voorn

It was early on Orlando Voorn’s clear destination was Music when he demanded to have records put on at the age of 3 years old. Everything concerning music would get a full reaction from him!

At the age of 9 he started his first drum experience and soon followed up with professional drum lessons. The teacher was aware of Orlando's ability at playing drums. Orlando's parents were amazed a child his age could understand music as well as play music, his teacher Quote's 'he is able to completely play whatever I play him!'

After 6 years of laying the foundation for his musical career he started to get enthusiastic for Dj'ing, mixing and scratching tricks. Voorn began djing at the tender age of 12 and went on to win the DMC World Mixing Championships in 1983 with his own characteristic blend of hip-hop and electro. Towards the end of the eighties he acquired his first sequencer, packed away his turntables and turned his hand to producing.

As one of the first Dutch musicians to establish a vital connection between Detroit and Amsterdam, Orlando Voorn has long been recognized as one of the Netherlands most original and inventive producers in the world of electronic dance music.

Before he began producing techno, however, he spun hip-hop and electro records. In the late '80s, he began working with a sequencer and began producing dance floor tracks.

His first releases came in 1988 as Fix-O-Matic and Xit; two years later, in 1990, he returned as Trigger and Oscare before releasing several tracks as Frequency for Lower East Side Records. These Frequency productions were his taste of success, leading to a relationship with several Detroit techno artists: he collaborated with Juan Atkins and Blake Baxter, and Derrick May and Kevin Saunderson released some of his records on their records labels, Fragile and KMS Records.

The early '90s were a productive time for Voorn. He released tracks under an array of monikers on an array of labels, and found more success with a series of 12's as Nighttripper and Format for ESP Records. These productions were some of the most sought-after techno productions of the era, and Voorn became a well-known producer, recognized as much for his music as for his prolific output. Furthering his career Orlando is known to have aliases to heighten his music vision and creativity.
