The Nine Lives of DJ Dimitri | Noisey

In 'The Nine Lives of Dimitri', Dutch house pioneer DJ Dimitri talks about the peaks and troughs of DJ life, the life lessons he has drawn from it and the enthusiasm with which he is working on his new album.
In 2014 we followed DJ Dimitri for a few months. He spoke very openly and honestly about his life. We went to shows and viewed photo books at his mother's house. He showed us the most important places in his life: where the legendary club RoXY used to be, the farm where he worked with people with autism, the center in which he rehabilitated for months after losing his lower leg. We were even allowed to swim with him for the first time after the amputation.

Oh I didn't know he lost his leg, he is such a good man and an amazing Dj with a very good taste ❤️

[@Blazetraxdj]

Ik heb de eer gehad om samen met hem 2 uur B2B te draaien op Oranjekade Festival in Den Bosch. Hij heeft me zo ontzettend veel geleerd, en niet alleen over muziek. Echt een dijk van een mens.

[@reptilespantoso]

Hij verdient dit voetstuk. Er waren meer DJs, maar ik genoot altijd van een Dimitri set. Lekker vaag af en toe. :-)
Inspirerend. Ik denk dat als je die vroege house tijd actief hebt meegemaakt, zowel achter de decks als op de dansvloer, dan gaat dat nooit meer weg.
Over 2007, dat was een rare periode. Voor meer mensen. Leuk dat ie weer terug is, als een amsterdamse stuiterbal. haha

[@sylvionicoheres3088]

leuke woord keuze ook.

[@RescuedRhythms]

What an amazing, beautiful and awesome human being

[@RoaldusKramer]

Dimitri is the master and the start of the beginning of the acid and other house, i can understand all, because i came there Roxy 1987, danced and used E also a deep depression to handle. All the best Dimirtri!!! If i can i will visit and dance once again to your music mix if possible? Thanks for your music mixes Dimitri!! I am dutch
