Jules Dago has been organizing regular electronic music events for 25 years, starting in his student flat. He spearheaded PsyTech in 2005 and Twilight (Kollektiv) in 2010, focusing on Techno with this platform. Jules organized and played in various venues in Leiden, including LVC, Club Bazart, Nighttown, Multipleks, Bar & Boos, and de Vrijplaats, as well as festivals like Teknival and Occupy A'dam.

In recent years, Jules Dago has organized and played for various venues around North Holland, such as Dock x Microclub (lockdown events), Binckhaven, Club John Doe, and Roots Amsterdam.

Jules also helps out and plays at a new organization called Blended, spearheaded by Robbers and Niels van der Broek, which is organized mainly in Amsterdam. Jules Dago is primarily interested in authentic underground sounds and prefers raves over clubs.

He believes that most commercial places nowadays have lost depth and quality in electronic music. During the Covid Lockdowns, Jules Dago was the first to continue organizing events in the Zuid Holland region, even when it was difficult to find willing DJs due to fearmongering of the state.
These events were called the Dock, and later, during COVID-19, he also worked with the boys from Microclub in secretive private events.

In his own words about this period: "It was a stressful but also an intimate experience, meeting true Techno lovers to come together for the music, in this surreal time. We somehow stayed undetected and unfined for over 20 parties during this period. "The artists of Twilight Kollektiv can be listened to on over 150 musical platforms.

They have released three albums via First Impression (Jaydee) and have tracks on five Various Artists albums. The artists have played in many venues and underground facilities and at various festivals, such as Mystery Land, Innercity, and Trance Energy. Mikka has played in venues around Europe and Mexico at the ZIJ festival and clubs in Germany and Basel.

Their latest album, Make Yourself Comfortable, is available on various platforms such as Spotify, YouTube, Beatport, Amazon, Deezer, Google Video, and many others. First Impression has released all the tracks so far. The group is starting its label and plans to release its first tracks in April or May 2024.
The DJs and producers from Twilight Kollektiv are Jules Dago (founder), Eyowa, Numtek, Mikka, Groovekaiser, Infame, Erres, Maxina Laura, Tomek Sikora & Amiro Jongeman.
