Dan De Leon: General Info

Member Since	3/2/2004
Band Website	DJDELEON.com
Band Members	"At once sexy, deep, aggressive and uplifting, De Leon is able to craft sets that speak the familiar in a completely new language all his own, always leaving his audience begging for more..." -OUT Magazine January 2006 "DJ phenomenon [De Leon] is burning up dancefloors from Thailand to Washington DC..." -The ADVOCATE January 2007 Argentina-born De Leon has emerged as a powerhouse DJ, blending his unique brand of body-shakin' House rhythms and a kinetic crowd connection to mesmerizing effect. His magnetic appeal propelling De Leon to performances at top venues around the world, from Hollywood to New York to the distant shores of Asia, Europe and beyond. Forging a maverick career as DJ, music producer, event promoter and filmmaker. One of the youngest feature film producers in history, he had his debut at the 1997 Sundance Film Festival, described as “A monumental achievement [and] an inspiration to young filmmakers everywhere” by the prestigious film festival. De Leon is a creative force who is bending genre, breaking the rules and bringing it all together with an eye towards what's next. De Leon's DJ sets bridge latin-inspired rhythm and progressive House with powerful baselines, thunderous tribal kicks, unforgettable electronic melodies and hypnotic vocals to create experiences that are both magically appealing and all his own. His trademark "De Leon Experience" tears up dancefloors and crushes expectations, leaving in it's wake a trail of melodies and memories that keep winning over new fans long after the night has ended. In the tradition of DJ's such as Danny Tenaglia, Victor Calderone and Chus & Ceballos, De Leon's unique and uplifting sound style connects intrinsically with the very broadest of audiences. The nature of his crossover style highlighted by commercial sensibilities has built a career working with leading mainstream events and commercial dance brands such as AVALAND @ AVALON HOLLYWOOD, SUPERBOWL XL (Detroit), KBIG 104.3 (LA), ENERGY 92.7 (SF) and XM RADIO (Thump Radio)--and also with the hottest LGBT dance massives such as Jeffrey Sanker's WHITE PARTY in Palm Springs (2004-2007), CHERRY in Washington DC (2005-2007), Asia's largest NATION in Thailand (2006), WHITE PARTY and WINTER PARTY in Miami (2005) and featured at New York's historic FIRE ISLAND PINES PAVILION (2007); a rare feat shared only by a handful of DJ's. A defining residency with the trailblazing event LATTITUDE in Los Angeles (AVALON-Hollywood, IVAR-LA, 4TH&B-SanDiego, Winter Music Conference Miami) a promotion which he co-founded with Alexander Catala, and having performed alongside legendary artists such as TIESTO, SASHA, THE BLACK EYED PEAS, VICTOR CALDERONE EVOLVE, SANDRA COLLINS, CHUS & CEBALLOS, D-FORMATION and SAEED YOUNAN; while holding a 3 year residency with OUT MAGAZINE's OUTLOUNGE series of hosted celebrity events for VH1/MTV Networks, Michael Kors, the Oxygen Network, Tori Spelling and others. In 2006, his charitable work for teen suicide hotline THE TREVOR PROJECT, spinning a series of high-profile pool parties benefitting the organization, generated tens of thousands of dollars in donations and ranks as one of TREVOR PROJECT's most successful funraising events ever. Not only adept in front of a live audience, De Leon's latest original studio production "Show You", a breakout collaboration with dj/producer FINBARR MASSI and original vocalist BREATHWAITE, is being released MARCH 2007 by STEREO PRODUCTIONS' IBERICAN Records. MASSI & DE LEON's new remix of PEDRO DIAZ - THIS IS THE SOUND is out now on SOUNDGROOVE Records. The first single from their collaboration, "Don't Lie", is also available now on KULT Records.
