Dan Snakehead is a Certified Canadian West Coast Disc Jockey, who started in 1999, and graduated from Vancouver's Rhythm Institute DJ Academy, in 2004.
Now a household name amongst the West Coast of Canada, and a staple in the music festival culture, he's had multiple performances in almost every notable event in his area and beyond.
Some examples of his venues and stage's he has played, are as follows, but not limited to:
Dan has also competed in the world renowned DJ Mix Championships (DMC's). Surprisingly enough, not as a producer, he actually blew us away and he rocked a couple new roles as prospector and curator.
Dan prides himself on inspiring, encouraging and promoting his fellow colleagues from around the world.
In the scene, instead of playing from a perspective of competition, he hopes everyone has a great experience. This is only one of the many reasons we love hearing him while he plays, and why we even bother hanging out with him off stage for a few laughs.
As if he couldn't be busy enough...
He currently hosts Nocturnal Emissions, marking it's 3rd year as Mixcloud Canada's #1 Drum & Bass broadcast!
Nocturnal Emissions is quickly becoming a globally recognized radio show / stepping stone, for up & coming drum & bass producers.
A weekly 4 hour COMMERCIAL FREE broadcast features releases only from the prior 7 days, and includes a midnight spotlight, or guest mix.
(WAIL loves Commercial Free ideas! I am personally super excited to hear this, and I hope I can participate!)
