Ryan began his DJ career in 1995 in Johannesburg , South Africa . Originally he would DJ parties & school events before discovering house music records. After falling in love with this new discovery, Ryan indulged into the ʽRaveʼ scene which was popular at that time. He promoted & produced major raves during his time in South Africa with artists like Carl Cox, Frankie Knuckles, Sasha & Digweed, Sonique, DJ Jean & tons more.

Ryan moved to Boston in August of 2000 where he attended school for Radio Broadcasting. It was in Boston where he obtained many jobs & internships that helped educate him about hip hop, rap, pop, r&b & rock music. He hosted a popular internet dance music show every Saturday night from 8 to midnight . He also played at Waterworks, Felt, Our House, Karma Lounge & many college parties while in Boston.

It was towards the end of 2002 that Ryan decided to make a move to a place where the weather is warm all year round & the clubs stay open way past 2am ! He transferred down here to begin working for Party 93.1fm. It was there that he grasped the Miami vibe and began to submerge himself in the industry. Ryan has worked at many of the top clubs, bars, restaurants & lounges in South Florida . Since promoting & playing for Party93.1fm, Ryan has secured his position as the Production Manager for the Winter Music Conference. Every year you can find him coordinating events & performances with top producers & artists in Miami Beach .

In 2006 Ryan toured Atlanta where he featured at many of the popular venues including Tongue & Groove, Fever, Mood Lounge & the Rehab Pool Parties at the Hyatt.

Ryan’s style is good chunky house! Anywhere from deep to tech, from vocal to funky, from groovy to electro. You will find Ryan all over the DJ booth when he plays as he has an intense energy that flows through the crowd during his sets. His ability to mix well, play quality music & build energy has earned him great respect & admiration as a DJ.

Ryan is currently moving towards taking over South Florida & rocking right! Keep an eye on this talented kid as he is starting to be featured at some major parties & venues around town!
