Leon Bolier

Leon Bolier was born in 1980 somewhere in the middle of Holland, and always was in love with moody music.
When he heard Energy 52's Cafe Del Mar he fell in love with melodic trance, and quit producing hardcore house.
In 2002 and 2003 he got his first record deals, together with his brother Bart. They released some tracks on Bonzai/Banshee and FTM sublabels. Back then the first contacts with Armada frontman Maykel Piron were established via Armin van Buuren, and this resulted in Leon remixing the first ever Armada release.
