Smos and Baby Bee are a duo who started their DJ career in early '90s, when they were in the small group of DJs who were playing house music on the Belgian music scene. They made their DJ name famous thanks to their funky, uplifting style, which was based on deep vocal house, dubby grooves, percussive rhythms, early UK and US house releases and occasional electrofunk-disco classics.

They became residents at ‘Cafe D'Anvers' in 1993, where they also played for ‘Paradise' and ‘Natural elements' from Patrick Socks and for many other parties which were organized at ‘Cafe D'Anvers'. In 2003 they were celebrating 10 years residency anniversary and you can still hear them playing there every second Saturday in a month, when they perform their famous long sets.

Since 1998 until 2001 they were residents at ‘Eskimo' parties in Ghent, where they always did their 'trade mark' closing sets in the house room. In 2004 they released a maxi 'Don't stop' for Eskimo recordings under pseudonim Elastix and they also played at many other parties which were organized by ‘Eskimo' organization ( Belmondo in SMAK museum in Ghent, Culture club, 69, Diesel U awards . . . ).

Between January 2001 and October 2003 they were residents in Motion room (house room) in ‘Fuse' club in Brussels. From October 2003 until September 2004 they played as residents for concept 'Colors', in Tijuana in Ghent and they also played regular gigs in ‘Le Club' in Lille ( France ).

They played on many occasions in all good Belgian house clubs and many times abroad and they shared the decks with plenty of famous international DJ stars ( Kenny Hawkes, Silicone soul, Mark Farina, D'Julz, Freeform Five, Derrick Carter, Luke Solomon, Carl Craig, Jack de Marseille, Jeff K, Serge Santiago, Tiefschwarz . . . ). Every summer they've been also invited to play at some of the biggest open air festivals in Belgium.

Baby Bee has been announced 'DJ of the month' in British I-D magazine from July 1999. They've been voted as the best Belgian DJs at 'Ticket nightlife awards 2001' and in 2003 as 'the best national house DJs' at Belgian dance culture website 'Partyguide'
