He has remixed songs for Dimitri Vegas and Like Mike (2016), DJ Antoine, Stromae, Armand Van Helden and Eric Morillo. He is best known for his remix of "Infinity" by Guru Josh, which topped the Belgian chart and peaked at number two on the Dutch chart in 2008. Producing Infinity 2008 (Klaas Vocal Edit) resulted in Gold, Silver, Platinum records in a number of countries and over 100 million views on the official YouTube video.
