About: Potato

François Frijns, performing as DJ Potato, has been a fixture on the harder end of the Dutch dance circuit since his teens in Limburg. His sets move through freestyle, tek, early rave and old-school, and as the man behind the Smashed Potatoes Festival he has a sharp instinct for what that crowd wants.
