In an age where very few artsts break the mold and truly shine through as unique and innovatve, Dutch/Turkish star Ummet Ozcan is one of the exceptons to the rule. Not only because of his advanced studio knowledge and the impressive string of dance foor hits this resulted in, it’s also thanks to his enduring presence at worldwide mainstages these last years.
A success story that’s about to enter new grounds...
Growing up in the known epicentre of dance music, The Netherlands, it isn’t difcult for Ozcan (1982) to plug into dance music at a young age. “The dance music scene has been very big here since I was a teenager. We’ve had dance music playing on radio statons for over 20 years now”, he explains. So, as soon as he’s good and ready, music starts to come out of Ozcan’s studio.
It won’t take long before he gets the atenton he deserves. Since achieving his frst major success in 2011 with ‘Reboot’, which spends seven weeks at #1 on Beatport, the veteran DJ’s major hits have been sampled in his peers’ radio podcasts and played at festval mainstages all over the world.
In 2012 his genre-defying #1 smash hit ‘The Box’ is one of the most played records at EDC Las Vegas, while a year later his W&W collab ‘The Code’ is one of the most popular tracks at Ultra Music Festval 2013, followed by the R3hab co-produced, #1 Beatport hit ‘Revoluton’ and the remix of Fatboy Slim’s ‘Eat Sleep Rave Repeat’ together with Dimitri Vegas & Like Mike.
Instantaneous hits
In 2014 and 2015 Ozcan sees another amount of his tracks reach the highest chart positons. ‘Raise Your Hands’, ‘Smash’ and ‘Superwave’ all become instantaneous hits, racking up millions of YouTube views and making it to #1 on Beatport. Also more recent ttles like the massive tune ‘The Hum’ (with former Dj Mag #1 duo Dimitri Vegas & Like Mike) ‘Lose Control’ and ‘Stars’ and his 2016 collab with Tiësto called ‘What you’re waitng for’ are sure shots. Other 2016 ttles like ‘Melody’ with Steve Aoki, ‘SpaceCats’, ‘Megatron’ and ‘Don’t Stop’ are proven dance foor essentals. 2017 brings a number of great releases and a highly rewarded remix of Axwell & Ingrosso’s ‘More than you know’. In 2018 Ummet starts his own record label OZ Records where he frequently releases his club tunes. Also he lands a frm #1 hit with ‘Sober’, a collaboraton with Korean superstar Hyo.
