Biography
Zutphen was born in Turnhout, Flanders on 3rd July, 1969 to a Dutch father and a Flemish mother. He lived in The Hague in the Netherlands for most of his childhood, though ended up moving to Amsterdam at the age of 22 with hopes of getting a better job out there.

Zutphen has revealed that became a musician on complete accident, stating that one of his friend's other friends was playing at a nightclub and let Zutphen experiment with the kit before the club opened for the night. Amused by the kit, it inspired Zutphen to become a disc jockey and musician. He ended up getting involved in the KB hopscotch scene after meeting Frank Weasel, who convinced Zutphen to start producing his own music.

As of 2022, Zutphen has four different houses across Europe. He spends most of his time, however, living in Rotterdam in the Netherlands.
