DIØN’s timeline within the world of electronic music began in his childhood. Growing up, he often listened to his father’s Tiësto CDs during car rides, with ‘Traffic’ being a standout track. This early exposure planted the seeds for DIØN’s passion for techno, eventually leading him to pursue a career in music production. Over the years, DIØN has developed his own unique style, characterized by hard-hitting beats and acid elements, which set him apart in the techno scene.
As DIØN’s career progressed, his association with Verknipt grew. Debuting on their ADE stage in 2021, he delivered a set that captured the attention of the electronic music community. This partnership has flourished, with DIØN headlining shows around the world and becoming an integral part of the Verknipt family. His ROUGH MATERIAL label showcase at Paradiso sold out in minutes, and his epic 10-hour set at Thuishaven in June improved his reputation as a powerhouse in Hard Dance and Techno. He’s received support from notable figures in the genre, including Amelie Lens and Fatima Hajji.
DIØN’s rework of Tiësto’s ‘Traffic’ is a testament to his skill and creativity. He successfully blends the iconic elements of the original track with his signature sound, incorporating unforgiving synths, depth-charged basslines, and hardcore percussion. This cover, named the official anthem for the Verknipt ArenA 2024 show, marks a significant achievement in DIØN’s career, resonating with both nostalgic fans and new listeners alike.
