Rob is 28 (but needs his beard to actually look like it), loves music, adventures and spontaneous people. His scribblings are about these things too, so if you share his interests, stay tuned!

A mixtape from an Amsterdam based DJ every Monday to kick-start your new week. Archive here.

Jean Pierre Enfant defined his style by merging puristic techno with dark and raw minimal influences. If you are in definite need to put a tag on this Amsterdam based artist, then mix Detroit, New York, Berlin & Chicago with the housy, the dark and the slightly paranoid sides of techno. Being the founder and host of the ‘Les Enfants Terribles‘ parties, Jean Pierre Enfant is resident at TrouwAmsterdam. Here he establishes a coherent feeling with his warm techno vibe and the borderless clubbing experience of LET. Right in the heart of one of the world’s club capitals.

With this mix I aimed for a combination of lighter jacking techno and more ‘out of space’ darker type of records. Enjoyable in your home environment, although I tried to make a nonstatic and playful mix as well. Included are a couple of my new productions.
