About
Dutch label founded by Irfan van Ewijk, Duncan Stutterheim and Theo Lelie (= I, D & T). ** For unauthorized use of the label's logo and name, please use the entry ID&T (2). It all started out as these three guys organizing a post-Graduation Hardcore house (gabber) party “The Final Exam” in 1992 in Utrecht. After this first big success, they organized a lot more party events such as Thunderdome, Mystery Land and Global Hardcore Nation. At the end of the nineties however, Hardcore and Gabber music became less popular and ID&T (who employed over 50 people at that time) decided to abandon their traditional music style. In 1999 they organized Innercity in Amsterdam, an indoor event without hardcore music. The company went through some changes the last couple of years. The label ID&T is now (2005) owned by Be Yourself Music, and they sold their publishing company too. In order to stay in the music business they started Dance-Tunes.com, one of the largest legal download portal in The Netherlands nowadays. In January 2005, radio station ID&T Radio was renamed to SLAM FM, with more commercially focused music. A few months later it was sold to 2HMedia. In March 2013, SFX Entertainment acquired a 75% majority stake in ID&T for 100 million dollars. In April 2015 Duncan quit the ID&T company. Today, ID&T is still a major dance organizer in The Netherlands, Belgium and abroad. Some well-known events: Thunderdome, Mystery Land, Innercity, Trance Energy and Sensation. You can read more about this label in the book “Release – 10 Years of ID&T.” There is also a documentary about this label called "God Is A DJ". Their original mascot—The Wizard—was drawn by Eric Keijer in 1991 from a graffiti done by in 1986 in Paris.
