One of Amsterdam’s biggest Dj Producers, Joran Van Pol took out some time to answer a few questions for us at the I Love Music Academy blog. This quick interview is for his production fans, so if you are interested please do read-on:

ILM: Hey Joran, thanks for taking the time to answer a quick question for our readers. What are your 3 favorite plugins which you use regularly, and why?
Joran Van Pol: Although it’s difficult to say which are my three favorite plug-ins, here are some that I use frequently.

Izotope Ozone 5

Ozone 5


The Ozone 5 is a great plug-in if you know how to handle it. It’s intended to be subtle, not radical. I mainly use the Ozone 5 to give my tracks that bit of extra edge in the high end.

FabFilter

Fabfilter

I’m not going to mention any particular plug-in from them here, as they’re all great. Whereas the Ozone 5 is meant to be subtle, the fabfilter plug-ins are meant to be creative with. Before you start tweaking all the knobs, take a listen to the presets first, they are generally super well engineered and will show you the potential of all their plug-ins

Native Instruments Razor

Ni Razor

I’ve only started using this plug-in quite recently, but especially for weird-dark basslines, it’s a monster. I like the fact that almost any parameter can be controlled by different envelopes and LFO’s.

ILM: Thanks for the insight Joran!

Joran Van Paul :

Imagine the two heavyweights of electronic music both wanting to sign your debut EP when you’re only 22 years old: a dream that came true for Joran van Pol when he found out that both Richie Hawtin and Dubfire were equally impressed by his music. Soon after his track, ‘Untitled 2,’ was signed to Minus and appeared on Richie Hawtin’s MixMag covermount compilation, Joran consecutively signed EPs to Richie’s Minus Records and Dubfire’s SCI+TEC. Now, Hawtin and Dubfire regularly open their sets with Joran’s instant classic, ‘Faded,’ and the list of well-established DJs and producers that support him continues to grow. He shares his music with artists like Joris Voorn, Oliver Huntemann and many others, who all recognize his talent immediately.

But it’s not just his efforts in the studio that make Joran van Pol stand out. When it comes to DJ’ing, Joran van Pol shows us time and again that he knows his stuff. Whether performing at Awakenings or at an intimate club in Paris, this extraordinarily talented DJ always knows the right records to pull out of his bag to get the dancefloor going in exactly the direction he wants: ecstatic and longing for more when he plays the last track.
