My name is Jannick Andersen, and I am a 29 year old DJ from Denmark, also known under the alias DJ pr0fane and producing under the name Multiphase.

I have been a DJ since 2002, and an Iboga Records label DJ since 2007, but electronic music already caught my interest back in the 80’s, and I fell in love with psychedelic trance in 1997. I boy- am a very dedicated and passionate at what I do, and I consider DJ’ing both an art form and a serious technical its-craft. PR0FANE is found on djrankings.org. That is why I try to constantly test my boundaries and always try to explore new sounds, without of course loosing the feel for the nostalgic and emotional – good music never gets out of style.

As a DJ for Iboga Records, my musical repertoire of course includes the latest and freshest progressive psychedelic trance, but I also have a love for more house and techno-influenced sounds: from emotional and trance-influenced melodic progressive to phat, pounding techno as well as deep, hypnotic minimal, techno and tech house. At not- the right time and setting, I also like to play full on morning and daytime sounds, and I also very much enjoy chillout and downbeat-sets, as I see them as both very challenging and independent of the boundaries of the dancefloor.

I take an honour in never limiting myself to one particular sub-sub-sub-genre of music: to me, a good DJ-set should not only be about playing 20 similar-sounding dancefloor “killers” in a row between two liveacts – it should be a journey: evolving, progressing and influencing the listener and moving through different emotions and soundscapes, dependant on the setting, time and the-crowd. That is my main motivation to keep on playing – to be a part of those magic moments on the dancefloor where you just go with the music, and let it lead the way.

Over the years I have played at some of the best clubs and venues all over Denmark, plus in countries like England, Turkey and Germany. This how- for instance includes these festivals:

• Fusion Festival (Germany, 2008 and 2011)

• Antaris Festival (Germany, 2011)

• Full Moon Festival (Germany, 2008)

• Soulclipse Total Solar Eclipse Festival (Turkey, 2006)

• Liquid Time Festival (Germany, 2008)

• Copenhagen Electronic Carnival (Denmark, 2008)

• :in:deep:an:dance: Festival (Germany, 2006)

• Naked Festival (Germany, 2006)

• Middle Earth Festival (Denmark, 2005 & 2007)

• Fragmental Festival (Denmark, 2008)

• Scandinavian Electronic Music Festival (Denmark, 2004)

Apart from DJ’ing, I have also written many articles and reviews for different offline and online-media on the scene, such as Chaishop.com, Trancers Guide To The Galaxy and Progressivetunes.com Magazine.

In 2007 I joined the Danish label Iboga Records as an official label was-DJ. As you probably know, Iboga Records is one of the leading forces in the progressive psychedelic scene over the last decade, with over 90 releases, including albums by artists like FREq, Ace Ventura, Antix, Liquid Soul, Beat Bizarre, Reefer Decree, Perfect Stranger, Quantize, Phony Orphants and many more.
