6/ NOELLE (The Nederlands)

«In terms of styles of house music, I play a very broad selection: it’s not specifically groove, club or techno. The word that I find suits my style of music most would be "soulfull", whereby my biggest preference goes out to deephouse. I love playing records that have emotion. In the OneFour I play the necessary amount of ''hits’ apart from these records. As a DJ you have to realise that you’re there for the crowd, they have to be enjoying themselves. But every week I have a couple of records that I like to put on to see what the reaction is. You try to get the crowd caught up in your musical journey, so if that succeeds you can also surprise them, which is the fun part!»
