Dan Tait @ BPM

DJ Dan Tait has been confirmed on the line-up for the Pioneer Pro DJ Main Stage at BPM.

Dan has literally spent half his life behind decks - at the age of 28, he has been rocking parties for over fifteen years. For the past 5 years he has been working for Pioneer on their testing team - contributing advice and criticism on prototype Pioneer products. This work with Pioneer has led him to showcasing their innovative new djing DVD player; the DVJ-X1. This player allows Dan to play visuals that he has edited at home from footage that he has shot and animations he has created. These visuals are spliced with tracks that he normally DJs with.

He says of the DVJ-X1 '……with Pioneer’s effector (the EFX 1000), and a DJM1000 coupled with 2 x DVJ’s I can have some serious fun. DJing becomes more like a live performance with the spectacle of a live show while still maintaining that flowing club sound'

Dan will be at BPM courtesy of Pioneer, and he comes highly recommended. His dedication to good House music, whatever it's sub-genre, his ability to read a crowd and then tease them into submission, and the pure optimism of his 'let's get this party started' attitude have all been central to the attention and respect he has attracted from the diverse range of clubs, DJs, producers and promoters that he has worked with.
