Dutchman Bart Claessen was born in 1980 and he started playing music already at a young age. At the end of the 90’s he had a little studio and with this equipment he produced his first track. That track, ‘Barthezz - On The Move’, was released in 2001 and it became 2001's summer-anthem around the globe. The follow up, ‘Infected’, saw it’s release in 2002.

In 2003 Bart started a new project called ‘StereoShaker’. That release was called ‘Rock ‘n Roll’. After the ‘Barthezz’ and the ‘StereoShaker’ projects, Bart released his first track under his own name ‘Bart Claessen’. Bart changed his style of producing, so people can now hear tracks that are simular to the music that he’s playing in his DJ sets.

Bart also remixed tracks for acts like Ferry Corsten, Chocolate Puma, System F, Blank & Jones, Mark 'Oh, DJ Jean and others.
