VanMook

Born and raised on the sunny shores of Santa Cruz, Northern California I began my journey into the world of sound with heavy Jazz influences from my father coupled with Reggae, Rock n’ Roll, Brit Pop, and witness to the beginning of Hip Hop giving me a diverse pallet and appreciation for everything musicians can do with the infinite potential provided by the art. After moving to San Francisco in the late 90’s and discovering the wonders of night clubs and the dance music phenomenon I was hooked although always keeping a place in my repertoire for my love for Hip Hop and Soul.
June 7th 1999 I Moved to London Town, England and was forever changed by the vast musical composition existing in the walls of every borough that make up the complex fabric of the city. A flavor for every taste and a place for every face make’s London the apex for the musical experience.
After a five and a half year stint in London, playing at clubs like Heaven and the Soundshaft as well as various residencies in the smaller club scene that pepper the city I decided to go back to San Francisco to try something different but my love for music and life drew me back.
Now back in London, moving on a steady course to musicianship and the partner in a blossoming label, I am once again at peace with myself and this life that we all live. House music is the love and the passion simply because it provides a platform for every style of music and can deliver the energy and good vibes, I believe, people need.
Whatever or wherever your taste drives you to, you can always find it in House.
