DJ name: Dain-Ja + secret aliases ;)

Bio: Dain-Ja quickly established himself as Ottawa's premiere UK and happy hardcore DJ. 3 deck technical mixing, storming track selection and complete devotion to music allow him to work the crowd like no other. Thanks to mentoring from studio wizard EFM-7, Dain-Ja is quickly learning to write the rushy, hard hitting dance music he loves. Watch this space.
