The enthusiasm that emanates from Belgian big-room artist Yves V continues to burn with the stellar
magnitude of a supernova. His placing in the DJ Mag Top 100 DJs rankings across multiple years
since 2014 has only reflected further the rise within the industry that Yves V has submitted to,
reaching international standing amongst his peers and global dance fans as a producer and DJ of high acclaim. Whilst his music now fills the playlists of the biggest DJs on the planet, gaining support from heavyweights including David Guetta, Afrojack, Martin Garrix, Armin van Buuren and Radio
1’s Danny Howard and Pete Tong, Yves’s name can also be found listed on billings for some of
the most prestigious parties in the world.
His sets have illuminated the mainstage of iconic events that include Tomorrowland, Sensation,
Amsterdam Dance Event, David Guetta in Concert and Mysteryland, whilst triumphantly
winning over the dancefloors at some of the scene’s most iconic clubs, including #1 club in the
World Brasil’s Green Valley, Jakarta’s Warehouse Project, Pacha and Ushuaia Ibiza as well
as World’s Largest Club at Germany’s World Club Dome. On the road his global exploits have
led to a series of long and successful tours throughout Indonesia, Malaysia, Brasil, Spain,
France, Italy, India, his native home of Belgium and debut trip to Beijing earlier this year,
along with huge shows out in Miami for the prestigious Miami Music Week, reflecting that the last

Taking his unmistakable sound to the colossal Lotto Arena in Antwerp, Yves in conjunction with
Tomorrowland curated a one-of-a-kind ‘Lets Unite’ event that had tongues wagging for a long
time after, as he was joined by special guests Smash The House bosses Dimitri Vegas & Like
Mike, ‘Wait Til Tomorrow’ collaborator Regi, party-ready duo Wolfpack and a collective or
friends and peers to excite. The true scope of this spectacular event didn’t go unnoticed,
captivating thousands with its wall-to-wall energy, instigated from a true hero of the scene.
The past several summers have also saw him make huge waves in Ibiza with recurring appearances
at not only Privilege – which he returned to as part of the SupermartXe brand with his V Sessions
concept – but also across rip-the-roof-off sets at ‘House of Madness’ at Amnesia and ‘Blackout’
at Amnesia. Add to this an appearance at the legendary open-air Ushuaia alongside Australian
duo NERVO and UK rapper Tinie Tempah, as well as captivating live crowds as part of Dimitri
Vegas & Like Mike’s ‘Garden of Madness’ over to joining Afrojack on-stage at Creamfields
UK; all of these top-tier bookings continue on in cementing his towering status within the
international dance community, that translates not only to colossal festivals but to his own, solo
outputs too.
From the studio, his music is vacuum-packed and released on the dancefloor by every major artist
from Tiësto and Martin Garrix, to Steve Angello and Nicky Romero. Whilst his remix work
encompasses A-list artists with a hip-hop flavour, including putting his stamp on the releases of
Timbaland, Missy Elliott and Ginuwine, not to mention working with the whose-who in electronic
music including high-octane edits for Galantis, all of this has led to Yves’ own productions being
released on a plethora of the best record labels in modern dance music including Armin Van
Buuren’s Armada, Chuckie’s Dirty Dutch, Spinnin’, Doorn and Dharma Records. His remix of
‘Insane Pressure’ was the release that broke Yves into the consciousness of his peers, since then
growing his productions from underground bangers into major Beatport hits that includes ‘King
Cobra’ (with Don Diablo), Top 10 Beatport smash ‘Octagon’, huge Spinnin’ heaters
‘Unbroken’, ‘Direct Dizko (with Sander Van Doorn), ‘Find Your Soul’ and ‘Madagascar’
(with Dimitri Vegas & Like Mike), as well as long-awaited ID’s, 2019 into 2020 has been his most
prolific year yet. Crafting a house-driven, intoxicating slice of Pop on ‘We Got That Cool’ with
Yves V, Afrojack and Icona Pop, the track propelled Yves V into another realm receiving support from BBC Radio 1, MTV and more; sending fans and the scene into overdrive with its explosive success.
An integral part of the Tomorrowland musical makeup, Yves’ residency for one of the biggest and
most awe-inspiring festivals on the planet has led him to feature non less than a staggering eleven
times on the Tomorrowland Belgium mainstage - a feat no other DJ has surpassed. With his
decisive set structure and innate ability to work the crowd, he has has charmed and ignited the
countless international clubbers that pack into the festival’s renowned valley. Having performed
alongside the biggest names in the electronic scene on what is arguably the most buzzed about
festival in the world, Yves has garnered a glowing reputation amongst his peers, as he has amongst
the legions of music fans that emphatically follow his every release and DJ set. Additional to his
residency with Tomorrowland’s original site in Belgium’s Boom, Yves is also an official resident
for TomorrowWorld and featured across all 3 days of the festival’s debut event in the US when it
launched in Atlanta, back in September 2013. This is an association that has continued to this day,
extending yet again once more to the event’s latest Brasilian leg in its lush Southern American
surroundings as friend and ambassador of the world-famous party, Yves continues to deliver year
on year with his mainstage sets, delivering a master class in big-stage spectacle.
V Sessions //
Cloaking his successes, ideas and musical direction around his V-Sessions brand has enabled Yves
to bring to the life his unwavering passion through a series of exclusive events, an internationally
respected weekly radio show – which is syndicated on more than 30 stations worldwide - and as a
famed Tomorrowland stage-host. Through the encouragement of the Tomorrowland team, Yves
was invited to curate his own V-Sessions stage at the 2012 edition of the festival. Such was the
success of this stage-host that the 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017, 2018 & 2019 editions of
Tomorrowland, once again featured a V-Sessions arena. In between his own main stage set, it
was here in his own arena that Yves had the privilege to invite some of the biggest names in dance
music that included Eric Prydz, Nicky Romero and BBC Radio 1’s Pete Tong to play, alongside
some of the most exciting new stars in Dannic, Dyro, GTA, KURA, Felguk, D-wayne and
Glowinthedark, on what has become one of the most electrifying stages across Tomorrowland.
2015 saw V Sessions become a force to be reckoned with as Yves took the project to Ibiza and
unleashed a host of up and coming artists on Privilege through a partnership with the insanely
popular SuperMartXe party – a victory lap that was so successful in recreating Yves’s musical
magic on the party island, that the concept was invited back for a second season.
From sharing arenas with titans of the scene, to matching his skills and techniques with some of
the finest artists’ from around the globe, Yves’ strives to demonstrate his diversity as a performer,
his versatility as a showman and his acute musicality capabilities as a purveyor of new
music. So stayed tuned, remain fixed and keep on dancing because to quote the Belgian star himself
“It’s getting i n sane”....
