Of Australian origin, 27 year old Daneekah's dj career began in Melbourne, Australia in summer of 2003. Alongside fellow San Francisco dj Stepwise, she began tag-teaming at various reggae and dancehall nights. This immediately led to other gigs, and also to the beginning of her first weekly Ruff Enuff. This was soon followed by 2 other weekly residencies in a country where reggae and dancehall audiences were small but quickly growing, in true underground style. Daneekah went on to perform numerous times with well known Melbourne crews whilst also appearing on Melbourne radio shows RRR and PBS. In early 2004, she released her first mixtape, entitled "Dancehall Queens". This reggae and dancehall mix was 100% female artists, a refreshing change to a genre almost entirely dominated by men. Big up the ladeez in reggae music! In early 2005 Daneekah went on to open for Dj WhAT?! of the Beat Junkies.
In November 2005, she made the long awaited move to San Francisco, CA. March 2006 saw the release of another mixtape, "Dancehall 101", a mix of old and new dancehall mashed with hip hop riddims. Daneekah held a 7 month Thursday night residency at the Tunnel Top(601 Bush @ Stockton, San Francisco), where she spun alongside weekly guests. In San Francisco, she has played at almost every reggae/dancehall party in the bay, including venues such as The Independent, Club Six, 111 Minna and the San Francisco Jazz Festival 2008.
After travelling to Jamaica in 2006, Daneekah started her collection of dubplates for her soundsystem, Miss Trees Hi-Fi. Although a big fan of the roots and culture, Daneekah consistently delivers the best of old to the new dancehall, specializing in bringing audiences the latest Jamaican dancehall and hip hop remixes. Daneekah can be found every Wednesday at her ever expanding weekly event, "Cooyah" at Brunos in San Francisco, alongside fellow selectress Green B. 2007 saw her open for the likes of Israel Vibration, Pato Banton and Junior Reid. In 2008 Daneekah opened for Delly Ranx, Mad Professor, Hieroglyphics and Dezarie and in 2009 she shared the stage with TOK, Pressure,Turbulence and Kymani Marley. Her current focus is making remixes, collaborating with other female dj's and emcees and networking nationwide to help spread the positive musical message. Big tings a gwaan cos ladeez run di bizness....

This tune will make you get up and go and move you forword to a positive state of mind. www.myspace.com/houseofriddim Jamie, here's my HONEST opinion & comments.... "Words can be so simple...Actions..." YES, but MUSIC also speaks louder than words....& thats EXACTLY what this tune does. From the intro chants of "LION....LION!", you get the feeling of positivity & strength from the word GO! The bubbling riddim track is met with uplifting vocal vibes from Mr Irie. A tune aimed at those who talk 'round di ting' & don't seem to put talk into motion, this song hits the spot. A vibesy tune to fill the air with as much punch as ALBOROSIE's herb tune, this tune should be big across Europe & Japan, never mind the UK. BIG TUNE from Jamie Irie. PLAY IT LOUDLY!! :) :) Blessed.
