Ruthless started spinning records in 1995, and shortly after that moment he was already making mixtapes for Radio Balans and Stadsradio Rotterdam.
He started as a resident DJ at Kozmoz (Belgium) and Maddox (Vlaardingen). Soon after that, he started playing at several places in and around Rotterdam.
Since 2002 Ruthless started to play all over Holland, in Places like: The Matrixx, The Powerzone, Asta, Tropicana, Silverdome, Locomotion, Club X, Amigo's, Hemkade, Nightlive, Alcazar, Heiniken Music Hall, Bob's, Hollywood Music Hall, and many more!
