In 1986, van Diepen was noticed by 3FM DJ Rob Stenders in the Netherlands and became a DJ at the VARA, which also broadcasts via national radio 3FM.
As a fresh voice in Dutch radio, van Diepen was recruited by popular broadcasting organization Veronica for radio and TV programs.
This included the Europe-wide broadcast pop music TV show Countdown, broadcast on Sky Channel and Super Channel, which brought him to international fame.
In the 1990s, television moguls Erik de Zwart and Lex Harding left Veronica and started Radio 538 and van Diepen was asked to join them.
From his daily drive-time show he went on to create the radio show "Van Diepen's Dance Department" where DJs such as Tiësto and Oakenfold would spin their vinyl live in the studio.
Van Diepen also started a run of dance music productions in the 1990s.
Together with Peran van Dijk and later Dennis van Den Driesschen ('Danski'), he produced acts such as L.A. Style, known for "James Brown Is Dead" (with van Diepen doing the trademark megaphone catchphrase).

The group went platinum in 73 countries and performed in more than 130 different countries.
When Dutch music video channel TMF (The Music Factory) was launched in 1995, van Diepen took up a VJ role in a show called Wessels Woelige Wereld (translated: "Wessels Wild World"), which he hosted until 1999.
The Vengaboys split in 2000, but van Diepen co-wrote and produced their comeback release "Rocket to Uranus" in 2010.
Van Diepen resigned as a radio presenter in 2006 to focus more on artist development and music production, but he returned to Radio 538 in 2013 with Global Dance Chart, a weekly beat-mixed chart-show with the 40 biggest dance hits worldwide.
The show was officially opened by Martin Garrix smashing a bottle of champagne on van Diepen's head.
