2025: A Year That Changed Everything

With 22 events on the calendar, this year became a journey through different crowds, settings and emotions — from youth movement parties and private family celebrations to football events, summer festivals and, most notably, Tomorrowland. 

Each event came with its own energy. Each crowd asked for a different approach. And that's exactly where the biggest growth happened.

Learning to Read the Crowd

One of the most important lessons of 2025 was learning to adapt.

Different audiences mean different expectations. That pushed me to expand my music catalogue, refine my transitions and think more consciously about flow and energy. It wasn't always comfortable, but it opened doors to more playing opportunities and made me a stronger, more versatile DJ.

Still, some moments are impossible to compare.
Stepping onto a stage like Tomorrowland brings a level of adrenaline and goosebumps that's hard to put into words.

All live sets from this year are available on my YouTube channel — a way to relive the energy, the crowds and the evolution throughout the season.

From Bootcamp to Breakthrough

Opportunities don't come easily, especially for very young DJs. They require patience, discipline and perseverance — and sometimes a bit of luck.

After completing the Tomorrowland Academy bootcamp at Carré in April, there was a strong feeling that something was coming. One month later, the invitation landed in my inbox. That moment marked a turning point.

Tomorrowland didn't just become a highlight on stage — it also had a huge impact off stage. Social media traction increased rapidly, messages started coming in from all over the world, and recognition started happening in everyday life. It's still surreal — and something I don't take for granted.

The Side You Don't Always See

2025 was not only a year of highs.
It was also an emotional year for our family.

Behind the videos and photos, there were moments of loss and reflection.
Some things don't show online — but they shape you just as much.

We miss you, Bompa.

Gratitude Above All

No journey like this is a solo one.

I'm deeply grateful to:

• The organisers who believed in me and gave me opportunities.

• My Tomorrowland Academy mentors, always there with encouragement, honest feedback and valuable advice.

• My family, for their unconditional support.

• My godmother, who barely misses a show.

• My fellow DJs, for the inspiration, respect and shared passion.

• And yes — it still feels a bit unreal to say it — my fans. Your support, messages and energy mean more than you know.

Looking Ahead to 2026

The first booking for 2026 is already confirmed, with conversations for several other events well underway. The ambition is clear — but so is the importance of balance.

School, football, trumpet and the scouts remain essential parts of the journey. Growth only works when everything stays in harmony.

Final Thoughts

2025 was a year of learning, growth, gratitude and emotion.
A year that changed everything — and set the foundation for what's next.

Here's to building further.
2026, we're ready. 🚀
