Biography of DJ Mason
Mason was born in Amsterdam as Iason Chronis, son of a Dutch actress and a Greek sculptor. At the age of 6, he really wanted to play violin and he kept on taking lessons in classic and jazz music ever since. With his grandmother's turntables and an old tape deck he was eager to start mixing in his early teens, as he saw footage of turntablists and hiphop DJ's in America. Although he was way too young to legally enter a bar, he started to DJ in local clubs around his hometown.
At the end of the 90s Mason got more and more DJ gigs and integrated his electric violin and effects into his DJ sets. Things became quite hectic, as he was often asked to play in countries abroad, while he had just started to study Music Composition and Performance. He finished 4 years later, cum laude and received an award for from the Dutch Royal Family for his graduation. These years he spent on composing and performing all kinds of music, but after he graduated Mason's main focus was back on dance music. His first record Helikopter EP was released in 2004, which was a mixture of italo, breakbeat and electro.
As he kept on DJ-ing around, DJ Tiesto saw Mason playing in South America and asked him to play electric violin alongside him during his Tiesto in Concerts. Mason joined him on parts of his world tour as a support DJ as well. In the summer of 2005 his second release The Screetch, a chunky breaks tune on the Dutch imprint Middle Of The Road Music, got picked up by quite a lot of dj's, like Tiga, Sebastien Leger, and Roman Flugel.
Mason became the resident DJ for the infamous Electronation parties and played in Holland in clubs like Paradiso, Melkweg, Paard, Panama and festivals like Dancevalley, Mysteryland, Sensation and Extrema Outdoor. Things got more and more serious with gigs throughout South America, USA, Asia and Europe, but it wasn't until his 3rd release Exceeder that things went really fast. As Great Stuff Recordings released Exceeder, together with the help of Ministry of Sound and Middle Of The Road, the track became a huge club hit and was supported by all kinds of DJ's from Fatboy Slim to Eric Prydz, and from Sharam Jey to Pete Tong, who made the track the Essential Tune at BBC Radio 1. Afterwards it got mashed up with Princess Superstar Perfect, and became #3 in the UK popcharts, and hit Europe afterwards.
Ever since Mason is living like a madman. In the studio he's been remixing the works of Mylo, Luetzenkirchen, The Ordinary Boys and Patrick Alavi and many more for labels like CR2, Ministry of Sound, King Kong and Great Stuff. Also his new releases like Bigboy Exercises and The Benedict Files got picked up and played lots around. But he also keeps on writing new tracks for his debut album, scheduled for summer 2007. Outside of the studio Mason is flying all over the place and played in clubs like Cocoon (DE) and Fabric (UK). He also started to perform his funky electro and synthpop live on stage with his music partner Coen Berrier as Mason & The Maker.
