About Roughstyler
Bas Oskam (Born in 1980) :AKA : Williams Syndrome, SMD, Roughstyler, Pavelow (dubstyle and dubstep), Kasparov (Hardcore)My first contact with electronic music came at the age of 6 while hearing a tape of the French legend Jean Michell Jarre. I still remember that moment. I took the tape with me and listened to it at home over and over again. Since that moment I followed most synthesizer compilations from artists like Vangelis, The Art of Noise, Jean Michell Jarre etc.In the 90”s when house music came in the pitcure I immediately recognized the sound of synthesizers I loved. It was an easy connection and I started to follow mostly hard-trance and hardcore. It as in this time I also started to produce my own music on the computer with the legendary FT2 software.In 2005 I got more and more serious into producing my own music although I didnt had any studio equipment. When I met Arjan I decided to go for it and borrowed so much money nobody with common sense would borrow me in that time. Nevertheless my mom did ;-). I bought a computer with logic pro, studio monitors and external soundcard. I had no idea how many hours, days, months and years I would spend in the cellar where I just made my first studio. I started making all kinds of dance from trance to hardcore. Cause of the endless possibilities of my new set-up i felt free like a fish in the ocean but on the otherhand tied out of incapability as i didnt understand the program and rules of music production. The process of creation was so much fun I kept producing ofcourse.Within 2 months I had a record deal at vip-records and megarave records for 3 releases. This motivated extremely and i kept producing if my live depended on it. In summer 2006 a dream became true when the famous Donkey Rollers invited us. This resulted in the first release on Fusion records in 2007.In 2008 my ultimate dream became true as I moved my studio to Freaky Music in Eindhoven to produce fulltime together with producers like Zany, Donkey Rollers, The Pitcher and Arjan Terpstra 50% Noisecontrollers..
