Danny Boy

DJ - Wellington

real name: Danny

At the age of 14 Danny Boy first put his hands on 2 pieces of vinyl with the intention of beat mixing the 2 together, since that first experience he has gone from strength to strength developing in many different ways into the Dj he is today. Skip forward and Since then he has played in every bar, club, Party, and club night worth mentioning in Wellington, and indeed has played around the whole country, pushing his own very unique presentation of music, and he is widely respected by his peers and punters alike as a Dj that always delivers to his floor.

Musically Danny Boy will always surprise as he is able to play many different genres of music, he has the flexibility to do one style comprehensively and delivered in the most creative of ways. In some ways it is a waste of time trying to describe in words what his sets sound like, when the only way to paint a true picture is to see him in a venue doing that thing that he does so uniquely.

In 1999 Danny Boy opened Firm Records in Wellington along with fellow Dj Ryan Salt, and the store was one of the busiest vinyl distributors in the country, servicing customers up and down the country. A year later Firm Fm was born and is attracting a very loyal following and setting the underground musical tone for the city.

Danny plays regularly in Melbourne at the club nights "Tuned" and "Private Function" as well as playing such Australian clubs as "Honky Tonks" and "Two floors up" and is a regular at the annual Australian outdoor festival "Rainbow Serpent". Danny is also Global Underground resident for all Wellington Gigs, having already played support for the likes of Danny Howells, Nick Warren, Sasha, Anthony Pappa, Freq Nasty, John Digweed, Lucien Foort, Austin Leeds, Tom Middleton, Chris Fortier, Satoshi Tommie, and coming up in February Steve Lawler. He is also one half of the duo "Tequila Flange". Heaps more but don't wanna waffle on too much..
