Curator of Sonic Delicacies.

With his roots embedded in the seaside town of Breskens and now based in the Rotterdam area, Kajan is moving forward within the electronic music landscape with over 20 years of experience. As a versatile artist, he appeared in Belgium, Malta, Bulgaria, Tel-Aviv, Poland, Zagreb, Berlin, London, Hong Kong, Shanghai, Netherlands, Miami..

There is just a refined way about how Kajan delicately combines warm, soulful, deep cuts with raw and quirky gems. Kajan is a true collector and manipulator of music: in his esteemed 6 hours dj sets, he defines the harmonious balance, by embracing diverse rhythms in his selections to create sonic appetite.

Live acts, studio and new projects
2022 marked the release of ‘Umami Fulfillmento’ on the compilation
Enclose: The Sound of The Jane. A true milestone to be on this limited vinyl-release alongside Sebastian Mullaert, Anfisa Letyago, Sue Avenue, Maxim Lany, Gerd Janson, Marino Canal and others.

With Rotterdam-based Pilot Wave Live, and Breda-based Omega Zen Live, Kajan performs all analogue live sets. Furthermore, he is collaborating with Radius ETC (Chicago) in a new project named KA♾RA, where influences of Dub, (Detroit/ Chicago) House and Breaks come together. Also work in progress: upcoming studio works with saxophone legend Franklin Schieman.
