- #LiveTheJourney, Episode 1: ARMAND VAN HELDEN sits down with us at our private island beach festival in Phuket and drops some knowledge, goes bird watching and gives insights on how new DJs shouldn't become a**holes
Never heard him speak...always liked his music...and now that he said "success is if the person is happy" ...
I salute him even more.
likewise.
What a wonderful Gracious guy,, very humble,,
Yep. He was raised right.
It's nice to see him more humble now, but back in the day he held the reputation as being the THEE BIGGEST douchebag in the dance music scene.
@@esarcilla Really? Are there any sources for this info? Find it interesting
@@samrose3205 Watch the interview :D
'humble' LOL !!!!!!!!!!: )))))
I've been an obsessive fan for over two decades, and this (found randomly touring tracks and mixes) is the first time I have ever hears the voice of one of the most influential
people in my life.
The world needs more of his music, as well as other artists who are just as good as him🎧👌
Same. LOL!
Same bro.
this is the guy that got me hooked to house music in 96 with the Funk Phenomena, my life has been better ever since
Fan since 1999. Great Armand!
He is fantastic. Humble. Brilliant. Kind heart.
He referred to other, new DJs with more downloads as the big guys, but this dude is a giant in house music. They don’t exist without him.
YES!
Love hearing about his reason for starting to make House music. His track 'You Don't Know Me' was the reason I began making music. Taped it from a Pete Tong show and played it on repeat on my personal stereo on my paper round the next day. Been DJing and making music ever since. Even though I'm still a long way off being a well-known musician (that is to say - you don't know me 😉) I still feel successful just he he says - because this music makes me very happy. Music is the answer. Thank you Armand!
That music was part of my youth. What a great time miss it
Every DJ should pay homage to this guy he did real Sh*t some of the best remixes and some great original music hits of his own too stuff that is still even in 2023 way better than any of the top DJ's music today or even of the last 15-20 years, if you have good taste then you know what I am talking about if your don't then you dont.
He really is a good guy. Very talented.
Love that he’s playing “good life” in one of those clips. Total banger.
He is a great down to earth guy and a master dj ! Love him ❤and what a beautiful description of a house music so true 🙏
Did not expect his voice to sound like that at all! For some reason I imagined him having a french accent or something :-).
All my life I thought he was Dutch, turns out he just has a half Dutch dad but was born in the U.S. 😆
Happy for his success and have always loved his music. I went to high school with him and he DJ'd at our school dances; he was cool even then- OLD SCHOOL Aviano! ;)
This guy is legendary.
AVH is one of my musical heroes, thanks for the years of great entertainment my friend peace
Was involved in the scene when he first broke out. Nice to see him still doing it. Good guy.
AVH been there and done it all many ,many times over. Absolute, incredible Legend in all respects. All praises due to this man. Stay blessed brother!
This dude sure knows about animals!
One of the legends 🙏
Van Helden is the best! Him and (early) Daft Punk were the soundtrack to my teenage years. Great stuff and he comes across really well too
I love this guy, I heard Flowerz in 99 for the first time at a club in Jersey and was in a trans listening to that. That's been my favorite song since 99 up to this day. It never gets old as well as My My My are my favorite 2 top songs of all time.
4:32 This was EXACTLY my experience. I thought house was dumb. Then I went to a house party in a frat house and when i walked in the dj was playing a remix of Prince "I want to be your lover" ABSOLUTE FIRE MIX. Now im a house head for life.
Such a class words ! Man this is masterpeace of what is pure house ! But i found this is same for trance ! SOUL music ! Balls to the wall !!!
AVH is unique because he is a DJ that somehow managed to appeal to heads and the mainstream alike. almost impossible to do. his tracks are cheesy, but incredibly infectious. As an underground dance music dj, i have a few singles of his output, and no matter how deep and obscure you play, his tracks still work. It's a beautiful thing, and I am happy for him.
Funk Phenomena will always and forever be my jam⭐️
2future 4u might be the greatest dance album or just album I've ever heard. This guy is a legend to me
Legendary. I remember finding his remix of Tori Amos professional window I think in 1996 or seven. One of the happiest days of my life couldn’t believe I found it. I think I want a couple copies on vinyl still and I also will randomly play it here and there at parties and it will work so good. Yeah this man is a legend.
It’s Professional Widow btw⭐️
I love him even more! First time watching an interview of AVH :)
He 've been Always one of my favorite
One of the best DJ nad The best house music. I was growing up on Armand house music.
absolute legend
Thank you for making this interview, AVN is a legend, big respect!
I love his tracks and great remixes half of my life and now I know he has a Big Heart ♥. I always remember him as a great remixer who turns every shitty music into a Diamond . One of the best Djs in my life...
AVH is the BEST!!!! Please keep making great music! :-)

Rene Hom armand is to america with house what tony de vit is to the uk and hard house both house originators and house gods
House God 🙌🙌✌
Armand!
This dude has made so many dope tracks flowerz funk phenomenon ect.
DJ Bum life extraordinaire. Ah the Loft after hours. Those were the days. You are still the same chill guy you were when we started together DJing the Loft and remixing for Mega-Mixx and X-Mix productions.
15 Gigs a year, wonder how much Armand gets paid for each one. Heard this guy gets paid ridiculous amount of money per gig.
I think enough that he wouldn't bother only playing 15 gigs a year
I talked to a guy that booked him around 2005. He told me it was 20k€ for a four hour set
music amazing from the soul and so isnt his outlook on life big ups to armand house legend fellow bostonian here just like armand good vibes brother
I remember he made the cover of URB magazine. Afterwards he had so much hate calling him a sell out. I still love his music regardless of what people think of him
Ace of bass - Living in danger (for the big clubs only mix) is still a banger ! 😎
This music is a fraternity!!!!!!
Song at 2:06 is Fly Life by Basement Jaxx, I believe
thanks
Onde é a fonte da juventude?
Parabéns pelo trabalho a longo do tempo
Articulate and compassionate, who would have known. He made Cardiff Bay move last night 🎉
The Legend....
LEGEND!
I freakin love this man!!
Great Armand! Yeah!!🔝
Legend man live. Capetown
Armand Van Helden PLEASE tell me the sample u used for Nuttin u produced for Northstar.
Rise Boston Mass those were the dopest days I worked with him
You are the big guy 🙌🏼 💙
Legend with a capital L right here!! I think the only other DJ who's on his level is Richard Humpty Vission.
New York - London - Amterdam! big up A!
My real name is Armand I live in South Africa and it's really cool to see someone really dope with the same name cuz the name Armand is not popular in foreign contries.
Awesome DJ
Simply the best
Nice Interview thx
You are the legend
100% a living legend. Anyone that knows, knows.
5:54 - 6:29 ! EXACTLY...

Ty for the Witch Doktor..
Omggg I needa pain killer! I needa.....
Genius!
GOAT status 🫶
Who is the blue guy in the koocky video
This man is my jesus
Legend
I like Armand van Helden but he play's the same track's all the time - just in a different order. A very good compilation is his gig from the tomorrowland belgium in 2019.
Alot of DJs don't do full sets of their hit songs, armand has alot of known hits, so of course he's going to play like an Artist and play his songs kinda like a band
Awwwwwwwwwww!
House music icon
1:54 ABSOLUTELY !!!! I met him briefly at the WMC in 1999 he was such a DB :( After that, I never played any of his shits.... and will never again
What is a db?
@@FCB.Diego1984 douchebag... but he changed and nowday is a good guy
@@FCB.Diego1984 Douchebag I guess
He deserves to be in the Simpsons 💛 because only legends are 😊
what an absolute sweety pie
Nailed it xoxo
what is the song at the minute 2:06
Basement Jaxx- Fly Life
if humbleness is a person and able to speak ....
You dont even know me is an absolute classic. Dudes a legend, cool as fk name to 🤣
Make "funky house" great again
Le deberian de preguntar que piensa del meme que segun armand van helden ese un duo conformado por armin van bureen y oliver heldens
Se partió en culo d risa seguro
this dude is like, 30 ? so he is making music when he was 10 ? wtf this confuses me a lot, i thought dude was an older guy. i remember listening to a cd back when i was a kid...that was 15+ years ago........is he a vampire or something, i am confused.
Ikr he’s 49! I thought I was the only one who thought he looks really good for his age.
@@trollofalltrades6516 He's almost 54 now and yeah, he has great genes lol.
My Hero I failed you :( i never became the DJ i wanted to be, i wanted to collaborate with you, but now that will always stay in my imagination :(
Armand!!???...please you didn't "create" that shit...the ONLY hit you are known for Duane created from his heart...BUT your dress in that video did directly inspire Sasha Cohen to become Ali G....
I angry on him...he let us orphan without his music 😢😢😢😢
?????????????? Don’t no what or who
Sounds like he's completely sold out
ashku27. huh .....he seems tottally down still
He's 49 and put 30 years of work into the house scene. He deserves to get paid.
Wtf, it doesn’t sound like that at all.
