Tilon also worked in the catering industry during this period. Since 2011 he is singing under a new moniker, The Arguido, with the Amsterdam surf band The Phantom Four,[3] which released the album Sounds From the Obscure in 2012.[4]

In 2019, Tilon joined noise rock band The Cold Vein from Nijmegen. In 2022, they published their first album Simple Trick More Voodoo.[5] In late 2021, he started performing again with former Urban Dance Squad-dj DJ DNA (Arjen de Vreede) under the title Rudeboy plays UDS featuring DJ DNA [6],, playing UDS-songs with a new band: Axel van Oort (bass), Matthias van Beek (guitar) and Jochem van Rooijen (drums).
