Presskit WOLPH 2026
I'm back! It's been 1 year since I decided to step back from dj'ing to work on my mental health. And let me tell you.. It's been a longggggg journey. (And there's still a lot to work on.)
Although, this is not me saying I'm "fully" back but more like I want to try again. To learn how to adept in different situations and environments. To prove that it wasn't all for nothing. Which I'm super excited about! So with that being said..
I'm available for bookings again!
Contact: [email protected] or DM.
But a lot has happened in terms of "my sound". So let me introduce myself again:
"Dordrecht (NL) based deejay WOLPH is known for his playful yet impactful curations.
Prioritizing a continuous flow with key moments to trademark his sound and musicality. Driven by his love for R&B, Hiphop and inspired by the sounds of the UK, he seemingly mixes from soulful melodies to funky rhythms and heavy basslines. Think of genres like UK Funky, Funky House, Garage, Broken Beats, breaks, Jungle and other global club sounds.
Previously, he played for parties like Set The Tone, Get To It, MOOD, Always Inside (UK) and his own concept called Eclecta. He's also done radio shows at Radio Radio and Open Source Radio.
He has started producing blends to expand his music library which are already featured on platforms like Aprtment Life and other independent radio shows on SoundCloud."
Finally, I'm excited to announce that I'll be live at Operator Radio next week to showcase my new sound. Tune in Tuesday 24th 2100h-2200h.
See y'all outside!πΊπ

MOOD Radio #28 π @moodworldwidee
Got invited by the homie @lolocations to takeover his monthly radio show at @operator.radio . Much love for that!π«±πΌβπ«²π½
For this 2 hours set I went with a very melodic and rhythmic approach. Build around genres like Broken Beat/Bruk, Funky/Afro House, UK Funky and Garage. A real dancefloor opener I've you'd ask me!β‘
I also invited the homie @palmtreespapi for a B2B to finish the job including a lot of his own productions. Go check his cuts from this set on his Instagram!π΄
And ofcourse I had to bring @carminatje for a valid vibe check (and a lot of laughter haha)π«°πΌ
Available for playback on SoundCloud and for the first time also on YouTube! WOLPH in your living room?!

Debut at @maxi.radio π°οΈ
Got a last minute call from @030_hunter to take over her slot for a second chance to record my set. (Redemption! iykyk) So I'm excited to finally share some more progress with y'all. It includes my latest obsessions: Broken Beat, Funky, Garage and more.
It was definitely not my cleanest set due to the lack of practice and a random emergency loop (?!) but it felt like an honest representation of the sounds I'd like to push and get booked for.
Hope you enjoy!ππΊ

2025. The year of resilience. π±
As much as I'd like to say that this was a year of growth, it was also a year of depression, anxiety and fear. And apparently I've struggled with this my whole life but it never reached its maximum. And this year it did.
It had its reasons for sure but I came to realize that it had to happen at some point in my life. And this might seem weird to say but I'm glad it did because I became a far more mindful person when it comes to protecting my peace and aligning my nervous system.
For example, I started to take my mental health more seriously by working on my physical health with running and dancing.
I took this picture yesterday because of a new PR with running and today I was like, why not use this one for my 2025 recap? As proof that I made it to the end of the year.
With a smile. Outside. Healthy. Grateful. Real.
To those who've reached out to support, care and check on me. I cannot thank y'all enough! Here's to a more blissful year. Cheersπ΅
Soft launch: Unc era π¦
Made sure to start another decennia with a clear mind, new set of goals and to gain trust over> anxiety. A short but meaningful gateway.
Tried to adapt my new routine I've been working really hard on. Going for a walk, doing workouts, meditating, journaling and decreasing screen time.
This is only the beginning but you got to start somewhere. And hitting such an age might have been a good excuse (haha).
Still, consistency is key. I've done it with multiple things in life. So, why not for the sake of my own health. Both mentally and physically. To be whole again.
To my future self: come back every time to read this again if needed. You. Got. This.

MEN'S HEALTH MONTH π
For the past few months I've been struggling with my mental health due to a panic attack that literally changed my life. I couldn't do anything without thinking that I might experience it again. "What if it happens again?" "I'd rather not go by public transfer." "Should I cancel my bookings?"
All these questions kept me on my toes, avoiding to ground myself and constantly doubting every action..
But somehow I knew that if I'd isolate myself from the world, I'd go in a depression or worse. So I took action! Went to the doctor, psychologist, physiotherapist etc. Kept meeting up with friends to shift bad thoughts to positive experiences. And really continued to fight for a better life.
I still have a long way to go but I'm so so proud of myself for pushing this far out!
With that being said. If you ever find yourself in the darkest days of your life, know that there's definitely light at the end after the first step. But most importantly.. U ARE NOT ALONE. Ask for help!
Also, I will definitely be back on the 1's and 2's when the time is right. Because depression is the opposite of expressions. And mennn do I love to express my love for music!
Take care of yourself and happy father's day.π«
(Any tips and recommendations are welcome)
Kingsnight at @rauschdordrecht π
Had the opportunity to open the first edition of Rausch. Went for a House/Garage approach. Mostly edits but also some classics. It was my first time curating a set like this but I enjoyed it alot!
Set available on my Soundcloud. Link in the bio.
Pro tip: play this while the sun is out!π
My radio set at @radioradio.fm π°
The day before I got a call from @lolocations if I wanted to sub his slot. Which I eventually said yes to but that left me with 2 options: freestyle or the same set I did 3 days ago at OSR. Because there was literally no time to curate a new one.
Fast forward to the next day.. My journey to RRFM was horrible! I spare you the details haha (For my close friends.. iykyk) I ended up being 15min late but I made it work! And I'm happy with the results. πββοΈ
Thanks RRFM for having me and Lolo for the opportunity!π

Proud to present my radio debut at OSR π°
It's been a while since I've intentionally curated a full hour set. For this one I wanted to introduce a deeper side of WOLPH when it comes to club sounds.
Still, one hour isn't enough to fully say that it defines my "sound" but it sure is a direction I'd love to show more often!
Thank you @open_source_radio for having me!
Now available on my Soundcloud. Link in the bio.
Enjoy and comment for ID's.

Twenty Twenty Four π
This year was all about evolving and adapting from '23. I've never worked so hard on so many things. Met again a lot of amazing individuals who also became close friends. Doubled the amount of gigs since last year and even started my own party.π«
BUT I also experienced some setbacks in terms of mental health which only a few know. Nothing serious to worry about though but I know that if I want to keep the momentum going, I really need to work on that. Which I'm also really excited about. :)
Anywayyyyy see y'all in 2025! πΊπ
Running it back this Friday π«
Curated another club night with some amazing people and I can't wait to show it to y'all! Open for everyone who is (or willing to be) open-minded to the new global (club) sounds. Surrounded by like-minded people.
Come through!πΊπ
