Sven van Holt

Electronic Dance Music musician from Germany. In 2000, Sven officially began his DJ career. He acquired several vinyl records from his idols Paul van Dyk, Paul Oakenfold, Sasha (DJ), John Digweed, Carl Cox, Tiesto, Judge Jules, Mauro Picotto, Tomcraft, DJ Quicksilver, Kai Tracid, DJ Dean, Cosmic Gate, Blank & Jones, Sven Väth, Monika Kruse, Mark Spoon, ATB, Armin van Buuren, and many others from his trusted vinyl record dealers in Munich and Traunstein, Germany. He bought a Pioneer DJM-500 DJ mixer and two Technics 2010 turntables to start DJing. As a beginner behind the turntables and in order to make further contacts in Ibiza's emerging music scene, he attended the Elevator DJ Workshop in Ibiza in 2002. There he learned to perfect the art of vinyl mixing. This led to club appearances at Privilege (one of the largest clubs with a capacity of 10,000 people), Amnesia, Mambo Bar, Club Punta Arabi and Beach Club Bora Bora. The special Ibiza feeling, the freedom, the particularly friendly and cheerful people, the holy mountain Es Vedra, the breathtaking sunsets, the Cafe del Mar, all this combined with electronic dance music has always brought together many generations of people from all over the world peacefully in Ibiza to have a good time together, enjoy the special club atmosphere and celebrate. With his mix series “Ibiza Vibes” on YouTube, Sven tries to bring people closer to the special atmosphere of the Balearic island of Ibiza through music.
