Daniel Kane

Ever since Dutch techno legend Speedy J asked him to be his tour manager and his occasional warm-up dj, Daniel Kane decided it was time for a comeback after a few years of absense. Back in the early 90's he first learned about house and techno going to a local infamous club in Breda (NL) named "The Spock". resident DJ at the time was Tijs Verwest a.k.a. Tiësto who soon invited Daniel to warm up for him on several occasions. A year later Daniel decided it was time to organize his own events.

Being a huge fan of the, at the time, more underground sound of early Detroit Techno, these events had quite the underground character. First in Breda and, after moving there, also in Amsterdam he organized numerous events. Eventually he ended up being a resident in the legendary club "Nighttown" in Rotterdam where he had his own club night for 3 years in "the Basement", called "Turn Up the Basement".

Teaming up with his ex-colleague from Nighttown, Frame Six a.k.a T!M he started organizing events under the name "For Those Who Know". After successful editions in Studio 80, Club Up and Worm they were invited to host the second room in Factory 010 during the "Electric Deluxe vs Dystopian" event in Factory 010 in Rotterdam. 

From 1991 - 2002 he played vinyl only, but he always felt he needed more than just 2 or 3 decks to be able to do what he wants. Now he either uses a hybrid setup consisting of a CDJ controlled Traktor setup and various new and oldschool analog equipment, or a hardware only live setup. His sound (influenced by Jeff Mills, Planetary Assault Systems, Regis) is deep, with a constant tesion and full of energy.
