At the age of thirteen, Nojzz started listening to hip-hop and broken beats from Ninja Tune to Wu-Tang Clan. After three years of intense music listening, he discovered drum 'n' bass through Logical Progression 1. He immediately fell in love.
At the same moment he started experiencing with Fasttracker to make his first songs. Some of his early works can be heard at two Dutch compilations 'Dutch Breakz 1&2' (Feeling and Moonlaunch).
His hands started itching and he started DJ'ing drum'n'bass at the age of 17. Four years later his dedicated practising and sending out demomixes got rewarded as the Unrezt crew from Brussels invited him to play at their Muzical Unrezt party in the beginning of 2002. After this first gig, everything went in a whirlwind: he played in the two following years at almost every place in Belgium. he became resident at the Unrezt parties in Brussels, the weekly Steam nights in Ghent and parties in Rijkevorsel (Antwerp).
Production wise, things were a bit calm, though the interest in his songs stayed. In the first months of 2004 he went studying in Spain, which led to five months not-DJ'ing. In those months, he concentrated on his songs. Improving his own sound, Unrezt asked him to make an exclusive track for their upcoming compilation.
