Belgian musician/composer (born April 17, 1965 in Hasselt) who had numerous projects, already starting in the mid-1980s. In 1988 Patrick Claesen, aka Pat Krimson, was hired as promotion boy at Antler-Subway Records in Aarschot, Belgium. At that time nobody could have dreamed that this man from Limburg would become one of the driving forces behind this company. On the one hand he set up a successful record label Dance Opera, which soon became one of the most popular labels thanks to hits like Time Modulator, Flashing and Fly Tox. On the other hand he founded the popular Flemish band Leopold 3. Now defunct, they performed only in Dutch.
