I have been DJ'in since I was a nipper.

I got my first set of decks when I was 18 and I was DJ'in in some of the biggest clubs and bars in Liverpool at the age of 19.  Back in those days it was all about the vinyl.  I'd spend hours on end searching for tunes in 3 Beat records, Phase records and the white label section in HMV.

I have been lucky enough to play in some fantastic venues and worked with some top class DJs and promoters.  I have been lucky in my career but also worked very hard.  Because I was given the chance to do something I loved it was great having the opportunity to give back to the up and coming DJs of Liverpool.  The Bar Red All-Dayers became a clubland legend.  Some of the DJs have gone on to great things (dj'in in Ibiza and can still be heard in Liverpool every weekend).

I had a classics show on Radio City 96.7 for 2 years.  I played every Friday night from 12 till 1, as part of the Lee Butler's Plastic Surgery.  This was probably the pinnacle of my career to date.  At the time I was playing in various venues in and around Liverpool.  Including:  Bar Red, Club 051, Sunrise, Passion, X in the City, The Boutique, Azure, to name a few.

I decided to concentrate on my day to day job around 5 years ago and quit DJ'in.  I sold my equipment and my records.  In hindsight it was probably the wrong thing to do but, after making a few guest appearances since; I am now back into the swing of things.

I can currently be found in Pan Am at the Albert Dock.  I recently made my come back to Bar Red as a guest and loved it.  Hope to be back again soon.  Interesting times ahead.  Loving the fact I got back involved.  Really missed it.

Mick Willow, an international house DJ and mixing and mastering engineer currently based in Dubai, known for high-energy sets, precision mixing and a unique style shaped early on by influences like Erick Morillo and Eric Prydz. With over 20 years of DJ experience, I’ve built a career that has taken me across the UK, Europe, USA, The Middle East and beyond.

I’ve proudly shared lineups with some of the biggest DJs in the world, including Sonny Fodera, MK, PAWSA and many more, and booked globally for major brands, festivals, restaurants and clubs across the World.

My sets are built around live editing, on-the-fly remixing and fast, dynamic transitions that keep the energy high and the crowd locked in. My end-of-year megamix series on SoundCloud now draws over 90,000 monthly listeners, and many of my personal edits and mashups have become essential tools for DJs worldwide. Recently my track ‘House Every Weekend’ has been supported by Marco Carola, Franky Rizardo and Cloonee to name a few. 

Alongside DJing, I produce under several aliases. I release Tech House under my own name, Mick Willow, and Melodic House under ChangedFaces, with releases signed to respected labels. Throughout the years I have also produced as Michael Mandal, Mandal & Forbes and Codera, with music signed to Sola, Armada, New State, 3Beat, Get Twisted, CR2 and Mark Knight’s Toolroom. My full discography is available on streaming platforms. 

I currently hold residencies in Dubai, Marbella and Ibiza, as well as at major UK events. I’ve performed at globally recognised festivals. Alongside playing on worldclass line-ups, regular interviews, features and guest mixes on national UK radio have helped secure my place within the house music scene.
