Bio
From the age of 10, Dutch Producer/DJ/Song writer Mr.Fonc showed strong traits of a future beat-maker, not only was he a strong guitar player but by age 13 he was already making his first beats and became part of a band. So strong was his talent that DJs started to approach him to create tracks for them.
Establishing myself in The Netherlands, known for its house music heritage, my aspirations and passion for creativity where able to grow. Here I learned that, we should not be scared of venturing into new areas, driven by our natural progression for fun and creativity
