Sonny

Sonny has steadily built his place within modern dance music, moving between work behind the scenes and his own output as an artist, with a sound shaped by emotion and design. In 2019, he founded Dreams Music Group, a record label that allows him to develop his work with full creative freedom.

His work spans writing and producing the soundtrack for the Heineken × UEFA Champions League “Ibiza Final” commercial and “Never Let You Go” by Third Party. In 2024, he co-wrote and co-produced “Gravity” by Martin Garrix, also from the Netherlands. The record premiered at Ultra Music Festival Miami before its worldwide release on STMPD RCRDS, marking a key moment in his development and contributing to a catalogue that has surpassed 5 billion streams.

Earlier in his career, Sonny worked with Avicii, an experience that continues to shape his perspective. He sees Avicii as one of the defining pioneers of modern dance music, whose influence remains deeply embedded in the genre.

Drawing from the work of Rick Owens, Martin Margiela, Arne Jacobsen and Verner Panton, and inspired by bands such as U2, Oasis and Coldplay, his work blends modern design, minimalism, and pop- and rock-influenced songwriting into a contemporary electronic context, resulting in a modern, retro-leaning sound defined by emotion, promising more music and live performances ahead.
