Hollen (IT)

If you are a clubber or simply an electronic music lover you could be not new with Hollen. His career doesn’t have a real starting point, just like many young guys he went through DJing for fun and he regularly attended all the House and Techno events close to his hometown where he had the chance to witness the performance of the turntables legends. From playing in the small clubs of his city till organise his own events, Hollen burst on the scene thanks to his music productions started in 2008. Whatever it is, groovy Tech House or peak time Techno, he constantly keeps his trade mark who turned him today into one of the most cherished artists.
