More Information
I'm a DJ & music producer, I've been DJing since 2016 with hundreds of gigs worth of experience - I've performed at festivals & club events around the UK, as well as many bar & hospitality gigs around Manchester. My strength is in my experience & versatility - I'm comfortable playing anything from 90s-00s R&B & hip-hop, to 70s-80s funk/soul/disco, to afrobeats, reggaeton, dancehall, reggae, house, garage, and more. My aim is always to play what fits the event, and mix seamlessly. I'm also part Kultura Collective, where I've been a resident DJ & promoting club events across Manchester for over 5 years, and have plenty of experience playing heavier club sets blending contemporary UK & global underground club & bass sounds. I'm laid-back, friendly, and always happy to be DJing - I'm sure I can provide the right vibe for your venue. A few example mixes are on my profile below, and many more available on my SoundCloud.
