PatriZe, the show’s host and a seasoned producer from Belgium, began his musical career at a young age, starting with his first set of turntables. Initially drawn to the intense rhythms of Trance and Techno, his musical tastes evolved to embrace the more nuanced and melodic elements of Progressive House.
A pivotal moment in his career came in 2010 when he collaborated with Pole Folder from Bedrock Records and Reworck. This collaboration was followed by his success at the prestigious Night Museum DJ competition in France, where he had the opportunity to open for the acclaimed progressive artist Guy J (Lost & Found, Bedrock).
PatriZe is recognised for his smooth transitions, carefully curated track selections, and complex melodic layering with subtle tech influences. Based in Thailand, he hosts his popular Foundations and After Hours Series and frequently appears as a guest on various international radio shows. These platforms are dedicated to showcasing leading progressive house artists, tracks, and DJs.
In recent years, PatriZe has released several successful projects, such as the album “AH Digital Essentials 004 (DJ Mix)” in 2023, which showcases his ability to blend house and techno elements seamlessly. His collaboration on tracks like “Galactic Trip (Hypnotized & PatriZe Dawn Remix)” has also received significant attention, pushing the boundaries of electronic music with its entrancing soundscapes and rhythmic intensity.
Committed to promoting the growth of the underground Progressive House scene, PatriZe continues to host his radio shows in Europe and the USA. As the founder of AH Digital, he actively produces, discovers, and champions Progressive House music on a global scale.

His captivating performances continue to draw audiences, solidifying his status as a prominent figure in both the local and international music community.
In April 2015, PatriZe and his long-time collaborator Hypnotised launched their label, AH Digital. Their debut EP, People from the Otherworld, achieved notable success, reaching number 4 on the Beatport Progressive House chart and entering the top 20 of both the Techno and Tech House release charts. A highlight of their career was the remix of the EP's title track by top-selling artist Rui Da Silva, which gained them significant recognition.
Currently residing in Thailand, PatriZe continues to perform regularly and produce new music. He hosts shows on various stations and releases tracks on respected labels that often trend on the Beatport charts.
