New York DJ Danny Krivit will be making his Australian debut appearance on 11 June at Seven Nightclub, Melbourne. Danny was responsible for the very popular In The House compilation on Defected Records.
Danny has been involved in his city's dance club scene since childhood and has had a profound impact upon it. Only Frankie Knuckles and François Kevorkian have been inside the dance community as long as him. In addition to all but defining the term “veteran DJ," Danny has amassed an endless succession of re-edits that have extended the lives of many songs on dance floors. He was even lucky enough to kickstart his career by Djing in clubs his father owned.
After thirty years for Djing he is still going strong. He teamed up with François Kevorkian and Joe Claussell to start Body & Soul, a regular Sunday night event that became an extremely beloved, diverse, and low-key phenomenon for New York City clubbers. And in 2001, the Strut label issued Grass Roots, an excellent two-disc mix from Danny that paid respect to the DJ's funky disco leanings.
It is not often someone of such long standing in the club scene comes to Australia. Catch Danny on his first appearance in Australia at Family at Seven, and give him a big warm welcome!
