Biografía
Bassjackers is the collective name for duo Marlon Flohr and Ralph van Hilst. At the time the duo formed Marlon was already Dj-ing and Ralph was experimenting with making different kinds of dance music. Marlon was mainly playing house music at the time and then the idea came to push Ralph's productions in that direction so that Marlon could play the tracks in his sets. They merged their styles for their first collaborative track 'Beat Cut'.
They sent the track to a number of major house DJs to get feedback and hopefully support. They immediately got support from musicians including Don Diablo and Erick E. As a result 'Beat Cut' got signed at Sneakerz Muzik. After the success of their first collaboration, the band shortly followed up with 'Juicy Lucy' which was a hit on the club scenes. It gained support from radio station 3FM which gained the duo further exposure.
After that their tracks 'Enowapi' and 'Klambu' gained more support and featured on compilation albums including 'Defected' and 'One Love Compilation'. They collaborated with Dj Jorn on a track titled '16' which caused a big buzz on the blogosphere and due to the anticipation and praise it was signed to Samsobeats. Bassjackers have remixed for A-list artists like Rihanna, Enrique Iglesias and Moby and played in clubs from Ibiza alongside Tiesto, to Las Vegas alongside Afrojack, and continue to tour around the globe.

Netherlands musicians Marlon Flohr and Ralph van Hilst came together in 2007 to form Bassjackers and they now have an international reputation as prolific music makers in the world of electro and house. They have played some of the most esteemed dance events and stages around the globe yet one of their most memorable performances according to fans was their closing set for Electric Daisy Carnival.
Amidst a barrage of lasers and visuals, thousands of tired revellers gather beneath the decks as the screens begin to illuminate and mark the beginning of one incredible night of music. The two musicians appear and kick off with some international dance floor smashes remixed in their original manner before moving on to some of their original tracks from 'Wave Your Hands'. The whole audience is bouncing like a sea of dance worshippers beneath the impressive visual displays and whirring lights that continuously illuminate their ecstatic faces. Although a hedonistic weekend of dance is coming to an end, the boys make sure the crowd is dancing to the very final beat with their infectious setlist.

Bassjackers are the EDM music that are making waves since they formed back in 2007. One of them is a DJ and one of them is a producer, making a real dream team amongst the electronic dance music scene of right now.
The venue is a huge live festival, where this ever so slightly intoxicated crowd loose their sh*t to every drop that is built up enough with, rising sirens, and a gravelly toned dude saying “Put Your Hands Up in The Air”, where of course the beat has to be on every crotchet beat, and then every quaver beat, every semi quaver beat… etc… It’s a very standard kind of set from a DJ, however. These remixes are so epic. On of the highlights for me is a version of Disclosure’s “Latch”, where they ever so cleverly go from a real peak into the “Now I’ve got you in my space, I won’t let go of you”, inspiring a sing along all over the place.

Dunno why I was expecting that these two acts would have been playing at a bigger venue, but, having it at Soundcheck was great. Was a respectably-sized crowd but not so packed that the door-crew was turning people away or needing to prevent people that went outside to cool off or smoke from going back in.
Was a great set. Sometimes the difference between a good EDM show and a "meh" EDM show is less the music played than how tuned to the room the performer is. Both Bassjackers and Breathe Carolina's performers were engaged with the crowd and were exuding a really good energy.

I really can’t write a review when THEY NEVER SHOWED UP!! Very very disappointed in Bassjackers for not even showing up! Looked so forward to seeing them - drove 4 1/2 hours to see them and they don’t show up. Nice way to take care of your fans!! Not very happy!! So beware all you fans out there...think twice before buying tickets!!
