Artist – Riaz Dhanani

Room – Main Room / Bar

 

We are buzzing to have you play for us at 93 Feet East on August 3rd. To begin, tell us a bit about yourself as an artist, where it began and some of your career highlights so far…

R: It all began  in my mates shed mixing up garage on Vinyl after school!

Some really great moments in my career so far are ..

Playing Bristol carnival! That was absolutely crazy, I wasn’t expecting it to be a big thing. I had no idea about it either…. I turned up to play my set and literally had a whole road blocked off and there were so many ravers it was madness! 

Getting a No1 on beatport In the singles deep tech was a big achievement for me! Literally wasn’t expecting that and how big the track got for such a long time was amazing! 

A current one at the moment , which is a huge one for me is having a Collab with Paco Osuna! I’m really honoured to make music with someone who I’ve looked up to as a producer and a DJ and someone I’ve been watching play for so long!

 

We all have those records in the bag that will be there for eternity…what is the one record that stands out for you, one you couldn’t live without, that always sends the crowd?

R: Haha! There is a track by Charles Pierre called ‘Ranura’ It’s a Track that always works for me, And I still haven’t got bored of it, I think I’ve played it most sets since it came out!

 

93 is one of London’s hottest venues. Have you played before? What are you most looking forward to about it?

R: Yes, I’ve played many times! 93 has to be one of the best intimate clubs where you can really catch a vibe! The system and the sound is great in there! The crowd always comes together and everyone’s just on the same vibe! When it’s going off you really feel the energy of the whole room!

What have you got in the pipeline as an artist? Any new releases coming up that we can look forward to hearing at 93?

R: I have a really big release out in September called ‘Ride’! That’s definitely getting dropped! I’ve just had an EP out with a huge track that’s been doing the rounds so I’m looking forward to playing that also. 

I’ve got lots of new stuff to road test also as well as beats from other artists I’m enjoying!

 

Finally, do you have a message for the ravers who will be there on Saturday 3rd? What can we expect?

R: Two words …. ‘Pure Rollers’
