Bas Amro, né à Enschede en 1991, est un nouvel arrivant dans la sphère électronique. Ses premières productions à l’âge de 16 ans ont attiré l’attention de plusieurs producteurs et DJs. Maintenant armés de remixes et d’autres maxis, il s’apprête à continuer sur sa lancée, déjà entamée par de nombreux morceaux qui devraient arriver dans les mois à venir pour de bons labels, ainsi que des remixes par de très bons producteurs.
Si le son Bas Amro est difficile à décrire, il est néanmoins reconnaissable très rapidement. Ses productions modernes mais quelque peu old school s’ancre dans une deep house qui a un effet dancefloor. Il ne se limite pas à un style, car de toute manière ses productions ont en commun une patte qui lui est propre.
De ce fait, Amro a joué dans de gros événements, comme par exemple à Atak chez Joris Voorn, au Tivoli en Utrecht et aussi à l’Escape Venue, le BLM9 ou encore l’Odéon, tous situés en Hollande.
Bas a commencé à produire dès l’âge de 12 ans, et même s’il reste jeune ses influences vont à Chicago et Detroit : il est par ailleurs soutenu par Michel de Hey, Gorge, Benny Rodrigues, Darko Esser ou encore Quince.
Aujourd’hui à 19 ans, Bas n’a pas fini de nous surprendre, et telle sa liste de fans et le soutien de labels et producteurs, cela promet : sa carrière est tout juste lancée.

Bas Amro (Enschede ‘91) is a new boy in the scene that is here to stay. Since his first releases in the beginning of 2008 - on the age of 16 – he kept surprising other dj’s and producers from all over the world with great variation in his productions while keeping one sound. After some small remixes and releases, he now showed the scene why he deserves a spot out there by doing remixes for great producers and labels. While the work for these remixes is really starting to pay off, more original mixes are coming out as we speak. At this moment Amro is working on tracks for some huge respected labels, while more and more producers ask him for remixes. This will all be announced soon, so stay tuned!
Bas Amro’s sound is hard to describe. His tracks are oldskool but modern, they’re deep but dancefloor-effective. He doesn’t limit himself to one style, though he’s no “trendhopper”. While producing house, deephouse, techhouse and even techno, all his productions have something in common that together makes one recognizable sound.
This wide sound got Amro some great gigs, like playing at Joris Voorn’s homebase Atak, Utrecht’s techno-venue Tivoli, but also at locations as the Escape Venue, BLM9, Odeon and many more.
Bas Amro started producing at the age of 12 and bought his first set of decks at his 14th, but inspite him being relatively young, you won’t hear this in his sets and productions. Amro is highly influenced by the roots of the Chicago and Detroit sound which brought him to getting lots of respect and support by the bigger names like Michel de Hey, Gorge, Benny Rodrigues, Darko Esser, Quince, and the list keeps getting bigger!
Obviously, knowing that right now Bas Amro is only 19 years old, there’s a lot more to come, and with this rapidly growing list of support from artists and labels showing interest it’s all looking promising. As said before; this boy is here to stay
