About Orlando Voorn

Orlando Voorn is a Dutch DJ and producer with strong ties to Detroit, having worked with techno pioneers like Juan Atkins and Blake Baxter early in his career. Though he is often known for making Detroit-style techno and deep house, his vast, multi-monikered discography contains diversions into numerous styles including acid, hardcore, tribal house, and electro-funk. Voorn ventured into drum'n'bass with 1999's Redeye, his first album under his own name. During the 2000s, he relocated to Detroit and became part of Underground Resistance's Submerge family, issuing material on his Ignitor imprint. He returned to his hip-hop roots with 2013's La Cliqa, and continued releasing exploratory techno and house records such as 2016's In My World and the more abstract, space-themed Star Travel (2021). In 2023, Voorn collaborated with fellow Dutch artist Emil on two soulful house EPs, Heist Mastercuts, Pt. 2 (also featuring Chicago legend Boo Williams) and Handshake.
