Last month at Pacha (Ibiza), Joris Voorn was announced as the 2009 DJ Awards ‘Best Breakthrough Act’. The 12th edition of the DJ Awards saw the biggest names from across many genres of dance music gather together to celebrate this unforgettable ride for this Dutch whizz-kid from Amsterdam. Starting with his highly acclaimed Balance 014 (EQ) mix album, where he mixed over 100 tracks and samples into a mind-blowing musical journey, we then heard releases like ‘Sweep the Floor’, ‘We’re all Clean’, and Joris' massive remix of Robert Babicz’s ‘Darkflower’ - all dancefloor favourites around the globe that have gained great support from artists like Sven Vath, Laurent Garnier and Dave Clarke, amongst a list of thousands. Even now his new release ‘Chase the Mouse’ is topping the Beatport chart, and the B-side ‘We’re all Clean’ is at the number 8 spot of this same Beatport chart.

 We congratulate Joris for this great achievement in his career.
