Erik Van Den Broek has been played on NTS shows including Peach, with Mic By Dunn first played on 7 January 2016.

Erik van den Broek started playing a home-organ at the tender age of 8. The music he had to play wasn't his kind of music though. This all changed when a friend of him visited him with a 1983 record containing bands like 'the West Street Mob' and 'kraftwerk'. From that moment his love for electronic music was born.

He started focusing on electronic based music in the most intensive way possible. He bought a drumcomputer, a tapedeck and a fairly cheap synthesiser. With these machines he started to do remixes of the accapela tracks found on the records he had.

After a while he started to focus on the art of cutting and pasting tapes. This was a cheap alternative to a sampler, which was very expensive to own in those days. In 1987 he came in touch with illegal records from Ibiza, which were sold 'under the counter'. Records from people like 'Farley Jackmaster Funk' and 'Steve Silk Hurley'. This was the eye-opener he needed. He was sold. From that moment he started creating his own tracks. Some of them were recorded just for fun. A friend heard those recordings and took the tapes to a record company. The release of his first track became a fact.
