Jape du Marie a new talent from Holland. He touched his first record in 1999 and started playing Drum ‘n Bass & Nu Skool Breakz. After some years Jape started to play more progressive styles. He fell in love with artists like Eric Prydz and Remy.

While playing as a dj he decided to give producing a shot and started creating his own sound, but it never came as far as a release.

He organized and played at known parties all around the Netherlands and he is a wellknown face in the underground dance scene. He played extensively throughout the Netherlands at renowned clubs & festivals. He also played in European countries like Lithuania & Belgium.

In 2007 Jape met Maarten de Jong and he gave him a chance to produce a track and find a company to release it. Jape came in with an idea which resulted in «Outsider». The track was immediately signed to Oxygen (Spinnin') Recordings.
Outsider combines a perfectly built dance‑floor bottom‑end with some spot‑on effects and minimal, while Maarten’s edit is more punchy and extends the track more to tech- trance.

Outsider has already early support by Ferry Corsten, Sander van Doorn, Ronski Speed and has been played at Trance Energy 2008.

The year 2008 is just the start of Jape´s career: there´s a lot more to come!!!!
Check him when he is behind the turntables; you can't mistake his charisma: full of passion !
