Background

Formed in Delft, Netherlands in 2013, Mr. Belt & Wezol consists of Bart Riem and Sam van Wees, two friends who lived in the same small city. In 2012 Bart organised small events and booked Sam for one of them when he was still producing under another alias. Since that time they kept contact and spent more time together. In the summer of 2013 they visited music festivals together, resulting in a mutual love for Deep house and UK house/UK Garage.

In 2013 they decided to start working as a duo together. With their first track "Homeless" coming out they immediately set a sound for their future projects,^[5] a mixture between groovy UK house and classic vibes from 1990s House_music. Since then they gained support from Tiësto, Avicii, Martin Garrix, and Oliver Heldens. In 2014 they signed a contract with Spinnin' Records, releasing all their tracks from that moment and forth.

Both Bart and Sam do their own thing within the musical duo. Bart focusses on editing the videos for their YouTube channel and Sam produces all the music.^[6]^[7]^[8]
