Netsky

Boris Daenen (Dutch: [ˈboːrɪz ˈdaːnə(n)]; born 22 March 1989), better known by his stage name Netsky ( net-SKY), is a Belgian drum and bass producer and musician.

Fans adore his lively and cheerful sound, making his music conducive for energy-fueled settings like festivals and dance floors.

Netsky's musical style is a unique blend of genres that have taken the music industry by storm. The name Netsky is based on the computer virus of the same name. A multi-instrumentalist, composer, and ethnomusicologist, Hankus Netsky is founder and director of the Klezmer Conservatory Band.

The highly anticipated sophomore album “2” landed late in June 2012 and immediately hit the UK Top 30 and No. 1 in his home country of Belgium, later going on to reach platinum sales. It gained him a larger platform and recognition from the mainstream music industry.

Some of Netsky's most famous tracks are Puppy, Come Alive, and Iron Heart.

Netsky’s first release on Hospital was the iconic “Memory Lane” (as featured on “Sick Music 2″ in 2010) and this was swiftly followed up by his chart topping debut album - “Netsky”– in May of the same year. After him are Loïc Nottet (1996), Kristof Vliegen (1982), Pascal Plovie (1965), Roberto Bellarosa (1994), Gert Steegmans (1980), and Iljo Keisse (1982).
