Dancefair – Dutch dance event for every DJ and Producer

If you are a DJ or producer you can probably talk for hours about great tracks, softsynths, compression, sample packs and .wav files. You sit behind computers for days creating tracks or browsing Beatport, Dance-Tunes, Trackitdown, or Whatpeopleplay.com for nights on end. That drive, that urge is similar to a alcohol, sex or drug addiction. It’s a feeling you can’t explain to people that aren’t ‘t a passionate dj or producer. Even your best friend or girlfriend doesn’t completely understand it. Do you recognize this? Most likely you will!
