Biography

As one of the founders of the Tropical House genre, De Hofnar made his first millions of streams on SoundCloud and YouTube. His talent was quickly spotted by the fathers of dance music with Tiësto, Laidback Luke, Pete Tong and Armin van Buuren asking the Dutchman to make official remixes for them. "It’s just amazing when legends like these ask you to make remixes of their tracks." De Hofnar, meaning 'Court Jester' in Dutch, sees himself mainly as a provider of joy for people. "I believe that as a DJ, I’m the court jester for people all over the world. That’s why I live my slogan: You’re the kings and queens and I’m just here to entertain you." His debut album, called 'Kings and Queens', went on to reach over 30 million streams on Spotify alone. 2021 saw De Hofnar launch his own record label Sandcastle, together with Dutch imprint Soave.
