Due to the international success of this song, Bas signed with EMI Music Publishing. This deal meant he could quit his dayjob and go fulltime into music.

1-a-B

Geert Ruidenberg

Under the alias Geert Ruidenberg, Bas puts out techhouse remixes, mostly of his own work.


Didier Rousseau

For his releaese on Cloud9 Music, Bas needed a new artist name. As he had been asked several times if he is a DJ, he thought it would be funny to call himself DJ...But then as the French name "Didier", which is pronounced the same. Just a joke. Funny, huh?

Next Dimension
