Mr. Dyn-o-mite

It all started on the 17th of august 1964 , day that the Beatle baby was born . Thierry grew up in the parental home with the sound of Motown , The Beatles and The Monkees . A childhood without any problems studiing architecture , playing football as a pupill with the Anderlecht team and endin' third at the national junior double skull / rowing championship . At the age of 15 he discovered the MOD scene and he quickly started to collect those precious vinyl 45's . By the early 80's he started , together with Jean Marc VOS another Brussels FACE , to promote various MOD nights in Brussels and started his DJ sets at the famous TRAVERS jazz club in Brussels . In 1986 both Jean Marc and Thierry were invited as the first continental MOD djs to play in the close circle reserved till that day to the top UK djs , it went down so well that Thierry was invited the next day at the famous SNEAKERS club . The first continental JAMES TAYLOR QUARTET gig was presented by Thierry in Brussels not long before the first ACID JAZZ early days . He was also famous for his R&B / MOD week ends organised at the Belgian seaside . By the end of the 80s he moved to London to work as a bookin' agent and manager for bands such as THE CLIQUE , THE AARDVAARKS and many more . He was also a regular DJ in various MOD clubs around the UK , and co ran a weekly Blues club in Camden Town with Slim Chance . Back to Brussels in the early 90s , he started to DJ more and more around Europe . With all this crazyness of the Britpop scene and his new job at one of the biggest independent record companies , It gave him the opportunity to warm up or DJ at aftershows for THE CHARLATANS , IAN BROWN , THE STEREOPHONICS , THE DANDY WARHOLS, OASIS and many more . In those days he was also involved in the co management of the Brussels Hammond groove combo SUPERSONIC . By the end of the 90's together with his ol' mate SOULIGAN they teamed up and started THE ORGAN-IZATION . They run the succesful monthly DYN-O-MITE night in Brussels, the DYN-O-MITE website (http://www.dynomite.be) and produce their weekly radio show on FM BRUSSEL . THE ORGAN-IZATION has put Belgium on the map of the deep funk scene . They can be seen regulary behind the wheels supporting the best new jazz / deep funk combos around such as THE NEW MASTERSOUNDS , SUGARMAN 3 , SPEEDOMETER , SHARON JACKSON & THE SOUL DESTROYERS , SHARON JONES, LEE FIELDS, LEFTIES SOUL CONNECTION and many more . Their nights have been highly recommended by people like Keb DARGE , Eddie PILLER , JAZZMAN Gerald , THE NEW MASTERSOUNDS, Neal SUGARMAN , and many more .
