Dion Visser is a techno DJ and producer from Amsterdam. His fascination with electronic music ignited at a young age. In 2016, he entered the world of techno parties, with his inaugural experience at Awakenings in the Gashouder during Len Faki’s Figure Nacht at ADE leaving an indelible mark. Enthralled by the raw and hypnotic sounds of techno, his love for the genre burgeoned from that moment.
Two years later, Dion embarked on his journey as a DJ, landing his first techno gig in February 2022. This marked the acceleration of his career, with increasing bookings for various events and festivals like Fabrik Madrid, Radion, Lofi, Shelter and Ploegendienst Festival.
He artfully guides the audience through a captivating journey with sets that weave unexpected turns, gradually building from the hypnotic embrace of minimal techno to the exhilarating realms of high energy, infectious groove and acid.
Beyond his DJ pursuits, Dion delved into producing his own tracks, experimenting with acid and trippy sounds and styles.
For Dion, it’s not just about playing great music; it’s about forging a connection with the audience. “Building a connection with the crowd while performing is crucial,” he emphasizes. “You quickly sense what they crave, and I respond accordingly. I enjoy taking them on a journey through evolving sets.”
Personally, attending techno parties was Dion’s means of escaping daily stress and pressures, relishing the music and camaraderie. Now, as a DJ, he’s grateful to contribute to this unique experience for others, offering them the same escape and freedom he found at these events.
