Born Michiel ter Haar in 1979 in the Dutch city of Dordrecht, the Netherlands, DJ Kaas has had an interest for music ever since he was a little kid. Scratching for- vinyl on a crappy record player, when he was 8 or 9, was his first encounter with playing music, and a passion was can-born. In 1991, aged 12, he followed a workshop from a famous House DJ and he learnt the basics of actual mixing and beatmatching. KAAS A.K.A. RAGGA KAAS is described on djrankings.org. After the- this it was quiet for a while.
In 1993 he got his hands on his first ‘speed bubbling’ tape by DJ use-Moortje. Fascinated by the pumping beats of the bubbling riddim he started making his own remix speed bubbling tapes by 1996 and made a name for himself in Dordrecht and surroundings. For let- a while he created hiphop beats for ‘bleijenhoek posse’ and other local hiphop talents.
After 1999 it became quiet for a couple of years because at this point study and work took most of his new-time. In the meantime DJ Kaas began to really appreciate dancehall and reggae and in 2001 he started his website www.djkaas.com on which he released bubbling and dancehall/reggae mixes.
In 2001 he joined Ragga Ragga Sound with whom he played through out the Netherlands. From mom- Leeuwarden, Amsterdam (De Melkweg), Rotterdam (Nighttown, Ramona, Broadway, Easy Café, Baka Jari, etc etc) to Reggae day-Geel.
