High Soundsystem's real name is Rutger Heij, he grew up in Dordrecht a small town in the Netherlands, at his family home with mom, dad, kid brother & sister. Influenced by Hip-Hop, Trance, Rock and South American music, Rutger began his musical journey by producing music on the "Playstation" with a game called "Music 2000". The music he made sounded African, with bongo's & conga's he created rhythm. Later on, he found love for House music because of his uncle DJ DARIK (Erik Damwijk) who showed him the example. Unfortunately, his uncle died at a very young age which left Rutger and the rest of his family with a whole they couldn't fill. Rutger decided to reach in his uncle’s footsteps and started practicing the art of DJing and so his cousin Dennis helped him take his baby steps. It didn't take long before he started playing in clubs. Rutger founded "Obvious Records” and has a ton full of releases released on labels like Deeperfect, Moan, Swerve, Tamango, TBX, Whipping and with support on his releases by the likes of Jamie Jones, Joseph Capriati, Loco Dice, Marco Carola, Michael Bibi, Richy Ahmed, Skream and many more his dj sets are energetic and house influenced.
