MOBO AWARD WINNER AND RADIO 1 STAR CHUCKIE MAKES GATECRASHER DEBUT Saturday 12th November 2011
Following road-blocked events by his Holland homeboys Afrojack , Laidback Luke and Sidney Samson, DJ Chuckie, the ground-breaking DJ/producer behind "Dirty Dutch" house hits like "Let the Bass Kick" and 'Moombah' and banging remix of David Guetta and Akon's "Sexy Bitch" hits Gatecrasher this November.
It has been a busy few years for Chuckie. From his consistently fresh mixes for BBC Radio1’s “In New DJs We Trust” to residencies for the large-scale Sensation events in Europe, Subliminal nights at Pacha Ibiza, plus LAVO in New York, Marquee in Las Vegas and LIV in Miami.
The Dutch are hotter than hot right now, dominating the world-stage and grabbing the attention of the world’s A-list pop, r&b and hip-hop stars including P. Diddy, Black Eyed Peas , Missy Elliott, NERD and David Guetta . And the Chuckie is leading the way” Pioneer of the Dirty Dutch club brand, Chuckie is one of Holland's current biggest stars. And after years bubbling away in the Netherlands domestic club scene, he is taking over the world and leading the Dutch revolution.
From humble beginnings in his native Holland to kick-starting a musical revolution with the 'Dirty Dutch' style of house, Chuckie has fast become a global phenomenon.. Taking dance and urban music by storm in Europe, The United States, and South America and beyond, he is spreading the Chuckie flavour with his explosive beats, surprise FXs and adulated climaxes. His banging ghetto house fusing dance music with urban attitude has made a lasting impression on the international dance-scene.
After winning MOBO awards in both 2004 and 2005, Chuckie has proven to be a prolific hit maker in the studio too with a steady back catalogue of highly successful singles and remixes ever since. 2009’s ‘Let The Bass Kick’ became the anthem of that summer and eventually went on to reach no.9 in the UK singles chart, catapulting him into the global consciousness. Since then tracks like ‘Aftershock’ and ‘Move it2 The Drum’ with Hardwell have continued to enhance the reputation of this enthusiastic and dedicated producer.
A constantly requested remixer, Chuckie has reworked the likes of David Guetta and Bob Sinclair before adding official remixes for P Diddy’s Dirty Diddy Money and Michael Jackson to his resume. Indeed Chuckie was the only person asked to do the official remix for the King Of Pop’s ‘Hollywood Tonight’ in March 2011, a dream come true for the charismatic Dutchman. For his latest remixes, Chuckie has brought his no nonsense approach to The Saturday’s ‘ Notorious’ and Eric Morillo’s ‘Stronger.’
Having landed a multi album artist deal with Atlantic Records in the USA, Chuckie has spent the latter part of 2010 and on into 2011 working on his own material in the studio alongside megastars such as of T-Pain, Tinie Tempah, Kesha, Alexis Jordan, P Diddy, 50 Cent, Lil Jon, and Akon.
If all of this was not enough, 2011 has also seen Chuckie receive the coveted TMF “Best Dance DJ” award where he beat off competition from the likes of Dutch heavyweights Tiesto and Armin Van Buuren. As his stock continues to rise and rise, it seems the era of Chuckie domination is only just beginning!!
