Biography   

Email to see if I am available for your club, social dance, Salsa party or Congress.  Neil@salsadj.com .

I play plenty of phat, danceable salsa with a strong 2 beat. I steer away from playing mainstream salsa, preferring to play classic and less "poppy" tunes. I have a large mambo collection, but I will play to please your crowd.

During trips to New York I was lucky enough to have the chance to DJ at several NYC clubs, including Nell's www.cubansoul.com, Starlite Caterers, Mambo Caliente, China Club  and Copacabana www.copacabanany.com (Thanks Elvira). I appeared at the inaugural  East Coast congress in August 2001.

I have DJed in London for for, Bar Latina, Mambo City, Manhattan Mambo, My Place, Salsa Connexion, Salsa Fusion, Salsa y Mambo, Scalatina, Salsa On Sundays, Tropical FM, at Havanna Oxford, Havanna St. Albans, Salsa Oxford, Santa Fe Bluewater and at Pontins .

I'll will work anywhere in London or home counties (please check for availability) and will consider working further afield (especially if it is hot and sunny).

 
What the critics say
"What a weekend!!!

Started off with a much-better-than-expected trip down to Havana on Friday
night as the Dirty Dj turned up and did a stomping last set of the night
with vintage salsa dura and his very own style of Dirty Dancing behind and
in front of the decks..... very nice!"

Leicester Square on Nov 3rd 2001.
