About
Sneekes is a Dutch female DJ based in Amsterdam, The Netherlands.
She was born in The Netherlands but raised in the UK (Birmingham) for 17 years where she grew up in the era of UK Garage, Jackin’ House and Bassline.
Sneekes moved back to Holland in 2007 to pursue a musical career. She recorded her first solo track “Closer” as a singer but when she started dj-ing in 2014 she was so captivated by the whole dance scene that she knew she wanted to become a DJ.
After a few years of playing at big Dutch and international venues she developed a genuine love for Tech House, House and Techno.
Inspired by some of her favourite tracks in her sets Sneekes decided to give producing a shot. This resulted in her first release “Don’t know what” with Big & Dirty Records. The track was released in oktober 2019 and was her debut single as a DJ.
In the first week of promotion Don’t Know What was premiered on Fedde Le Grand’s radio show Darklight sessions and Madison Mars’ House of Mars. Already with support from big names like Fedde le Grand, Chuckie, Raven & Kreyn (Hexagon) and Dante Klein among others Sneekes couldn’t have dreamt of a better debut than this one.
Her second release is even more promising. The track “No Sleep” was released on January 30th and in the first weeks of promotion it was already featured on Lucas and Steve’s radio show Skyline Sessions on Radio 538, Dannic’s show Fonk Radio, Dante Klein’s Short Cuts, Firebeatz’ Ignite Radio on Slam, Thomas Gold’s Fanfare Radioshow, Kryder’s BCM Radio Show 319 and Showtek’s Skink Radio.
