Biography The Partysquad

The Partysquad is the Amsterdam duo DJ Jerry (Jerry Leembruggen) and MC Ruben (Ruben Fernhout) a.k.a. Ruby Funkdoobie. Their productions contain a mix of hiphop, reggae(ton), bubbling and R & B. In their own Goodlife studio they produce successful hiphop records, with guest contributions by the cream of the crop of the Dutch hiphop scene. Jerry and Ruben also have their own urban company Fernwood & Leembridges, which organizes events and promotional activities for others and runs a recording studio.

1999 - 2005

The Amsterdam duo DJ Jerry (Jerry Leembruggen) and MC Ruben work together for the first time at the Club Margaritas in the center of the Dutch capital. Other Dutch clubs are soon to follow. The Partysquad's first mix album is released in early January 2000, followed by mix albums in 2001 and 2002. The CD UK Sounds (2002) contains an urban mix with contributions by Ebon-E, Lady Bee, Gomes & MC Vin-E and Vigilante. The Partysquad performs at the Innercity and Ambassador, as support act to 50 Cent and Kanye West, and also abroad, including Portugal, Spain, the Dutch Antilles and Morocco. The duo has its own radio show on youth station FunX. The single Wat Wil Je Doen (featuring De Jeugd Van Tegenwoordig's Willie Wartaal, Spacekees, Darryll, The Art-officials, The Opposites and The Heist-rockah) is the title song of the 2005 feature film Het Schnitzelparadijs.

In September Jerry Leembruggen is seriously injured on Ibiza when his car veers off the road and crashes. He is in a coma for six weeks, and because of a partial loss of memory it takes him over a year to reacquaint himself with his DJ setup and a great deal of the duo's music from the past.

It features contributions by Dutch acts like Sidney Samson, Afrojack, The Opposites and Lange Frans, but also has a special collaboration with the American soul singer Erykah Badu.
