Liquicity
Liquicity is a Dutch liquid drum and bass record label, YouTube channel and events promoter, run by Maris Goudzwaard, Boudewijn Kustner and Mark van der Schoot since 2011.
History
Maris Goudzwaard created his Liquicity YouTube channel in 2008, with the idea of starting an entirely new subculture within Drum & Bass. He curated a particular type of drum and bass music that had previously not been labeled, and by doing so gave shape to a worldwide music community. The channel quickly attracted fans –who would become known as "Liquicitizens"– with the same musical taste, and artists from the same genre featured on the channel gradually formed a close group.In the summer of 2011, Goudzwaard heard Maduk's first track, "Avalon", and successfully contacted him to promote it on the Liquicity channel. The cooperation between the two evolved into a team, and Liquicity Records was established as a label a few months later. Since 2012, Maduk has recorded yearly mixes of the most frequently played songs by their label. In January 2013, they founded a new company for Liquicity events and label matters. Through the combination of music promotion, record label and events, the duo's hobby grew out to a full-time job.
