Professional DJ and music curator with experience performing at clubs, events and parties across Manchester and beyond. My sound is rooted in House, Disco, Tech House, Funky House, Latin House, Afro House and Balearic influences, with a focus on energy, groove, genre blending and keeping people moving. As a former world-touring professional dancer, I bring a strong understanding of rhythm, movement and crowd connection to my DJ sets. I have performed at a range of venues and events, including Ambers in Manchester, with upcoming bookings at Sankeys and Hidden, as well as appearances with established collectives, promoters and events across the UK. Alongside performing, I have extensive experience selecting music for different audiences, venues and occasions, from high-energy club sets and parties to more carefully curated listening experiences. I understand that great music isn't simply about choosing good tracks — it's about how they work together. I pay close attention to flow, energy, atmosphere and the balance between familiar favourites and new discoveries. I bring this approach to my playlist curation, creating personalised Spotify playlists tailored to each client's taste, occasion, audience and desired atmosphere.
