Abokin
Elmar van Arnhem, stage name Abokin, was born and raised in the local area of Groningen.
His interest in music started with Drum & Bass and other underground electronic styles. Slowly he started to get into Dubstep, Bass music and Breakbeat,
and even later on Techno and House.
Following his passion for all things groovy, he started to work in a record shop in Groningen. Following the latest trends, what people would usually buy and had interest in, while always being on the lookout for what new styles had the most chance in becoming the next hype.
After a while he started having his first gigs as a DJ, playing around the Netherlands in venues like Club Hemingway (Leeuwarden), ACU (Utrecht), Simplon, Vera and Paradigm
(Groningen), with a steady focus on growing further in the scene.
Welcoming him to UNDFND, he’s coming with a full-on Album to showcase his love for all styles he fell in love with since his beginning, which will contain DnB, Dubstep, Techno, House, Breakbeat, Ambient, and some guitar performances as well.

Next up on UNDFND is a free download from one of our close affilates; DUBTATO
Genuine Gratitude displays DUBTATO’s excellent talent of blending beautiful melodies with punchy garage beats and swooshing basslines. This one is not to miss! This track starts off with a nice rhodes melody which tugs on your heartstrings, in which the drums continously keep building up to finally release into a bassy spaced-out drop.
It’s also a way to express our Genuine Gratitude to all of you, and for your continuous support to our label. It warms our little hearts! We love you! See this free track as a gift from UNDFND to you! Here’s to many more releases, sets, events and maybe in the near-future; a vinyl release!

Aron SC
Dutch born and raised Aron SC didn’t begin his music production journey in the realm of dance music. Tapping into genres like future garage and witch house, he initially focussed on achieving an atmospheric and dreamy sound rather than wanting to make people dance.
In 2018 he started experimenting with techno after being heavily exposed to Groningen’s underground dance scene, frequenting clubs like Paradigm and OOST. From then he discovered his new love for hard and upbeat techno.
Heavily inspired by the UK and French techno scenes, AronSC strives to create fast, driving techno with hard-hitting kicks.

UNDFND presents the talented Rabee Kanafani with his Requiem EP:
Ambient infused dub-techno spans over the 3 songs in this EP, with each track delving deeper into dancefloor territory!
The first track creates the base, the second track solidifies and the third track will make you dance; are you ready to undergo this journey?

Rabee Kanafani
Rabee grew up regularly going to the cinema. This was a foundational experience for him, as he soaked up the textural soundscapes of the music made for the big screens and the emotions behind the motion pictures.
Rabee is passionate about creating visceral music. He drew inspiration from the people around him, nature, and the incredible experiences we go through as humans. For Rabee, music has always been an inward search and an introspective and cathartic exploration.
In music Rabee explores the symbolism behind light, darkness, spirituality, and the meaning of life. His compositions are poignant and emotionally moving.
Our music is only available for purchase through Bandcamp. Other stores take a too high share. Also we haven’t developed our own store yet.
UNDFND’s first release showcases four tracks that originate from producers and DJ’s from groningen.
First up is Jos Lok his trippy, punchy track “Beyond Catastrophia”. A 4×4 kick drum
relentlessly keeping your attention while strange vocals with trippy percussion
tries to take you out there.
“Into This Array” by Voorman showcases a real techno banger. A slowly developing
melody falls apart during the second drop, while the thumping kick drives the track
forward.
Next up is “Sugardaddy” by Dubtato; a vocal heavy uk garage track with bouncy drums
and an on-going bass line. Different sections through the track keep your mind
and your body occupied through the track.
Finally we have “Daze” from Mathijs Smit, a carefully crafted electro banger,
slowly rising to a crescendo at the final drop. Starting with a drumloop which
subtly transforms into a mind-blowing whirlpool of sound, this one is a theme
to stay in your playlist for a while.

Jos Lok
Jos Lok is a DJ and producer residing in the beautiful city of Groningen, the Netherlands. Jos has been obsessed with rhythmical sounds from a young age. As a result of his encompassing love for music, Jos started playing the drums when he was nine years old.
After a few years of going through the metal music repertoire and playing in a band he acquired a new taste in music. Evidently, he started producing his own Techno and House. A stripped down beat, groovy bass and just the right chords or another melodic component is the perfect formula for inspiration for Jos.
His music has been released on labels such as Archipel and Vivus records. Jos Lok receives support from artist like Pheek, Christhoper Ledger, David Gtronic and Noah Skelton.

Voorman’s making a name for himself right now. Having played at FAKE events, and making great things regarding live electronica.
