Spin City: 'Best Radio Show'  - Only Good Vibes Music Awards 2021
Bookings - gozspincity@gmail.com

Hailing from Scotland, Goz has been DJ’ing for over 25 years and in that time has embraced a number of genres from house, hip hop and soul to disco and funk. In the early 1990s he was introduced to the art of mixing vinyl records and from that point forwards, Goz immersed himself in the art of beat matching and building sets - crafting his unique style throughout the 1990s where he would play local parties and get-togethers and, of course  - the all-important pre and post-night out shenanigans.  

After taking a break from DJ’ing in the early 2000s, Goz picked up the reins once again in 2014 and got back to doing what he loves most. Goz has always had an exceptionally diverse taste in music, although he naturally gravitated towards disco, soul, funk and hip-hop genres. 

Goz’s passion for music shines through in his sets, which are carefully curated and crafted to take you on a journey that always leaves you craving more. As one of the most renowned specialists in slow-mo and laid back grooves, when Goz decides to drop down the gears he creates a ‘soundscape’ experience few DJs on the scene can achieve. Similarly, when the disco juices are flowing, and the BPM is cranked up it’s a roller coaster ride and swirling haze of funky basslines, heavenly string arrangements, Afro beats and soulful smokiness. 

As host / show runner of the hugely successful Spin City which airs on New York’s number one House Music Station, www.myhouseradio.fm for a number of years now, Goz has built an extensive and strong follower base who regularly tune in to the two hour show which airs every Sunday at 7pm GMT (2pm NYC). The format of Spin City is a certified winner - with Goz normally presenting the first hour of the show followed by a special guest mix each week. On occasion, Goz will take the whole two hours to treat listeners to prime selections of new, old and classic tracks.  Some of the biggest names on the disco and nu-disco scene have appeared on the show, which has also secured talents such as John Le Visiteur, IMFROMULL, DJ Wahine and Queen & Disco for bi-monthly and quarterly residency spots. Goz also has a keen eye for up-and-coming DJs and producers - spotting undiscovered talent early and giving them a platform to showcase their skills.

During the summer of 2019, Goz teamed up with a group of like-minded DJs and producers to form a new promotion - Black Light Disco. The first Black Light Disco event in June 2019 was an enormous success and has gone on to land its own radio show which also airs on MyHouse Radio FM every Monday from 7pm - 9pm GMT (2pm - 4pm NYC). Since the show started in January 2020, its reputation has grown considerably and BLD now attracts some of the biggest names on the disco and nu-disco scene for guest spots. In May 2020, Black Light Disco formed a partnership with the excellent Samosa Records and Daje Funk Records to present a monthly residency on the MyHouse Radio platform, with label head honchos Les Inferno and De Gama taking over the show for the whole two hours. Airing on the second Monday of each month, The Samosa Funk show is already taking the disco world by storm -the partnership with BLD really taking things to the next level for the promotion. Going forward, Black Light Disco has a number of live events planned, so watch this space for the most up-to-date news on where one of Black Light Disco’s now famous nights will drop next!

I bought my first record aged 5, it was a dinosaur themed LP which I still have in my collection. My 1st stint as a DJ came in 1991 when I played a school disco using a twin cassette player. Four years later I moved on to a set of Soundlab belt drives. I taught myself to mix from scratch using these before moving on to a set of Technics a few years later. 
I set up the promotions company FunkyDory in 1999 with a group of like minded friends! We quickly secured a weekly Thursday night residency at the Green Parrot, Cardiff. Within two months we had secured a Friday night residency at the Slug & Lettuce, Cardiff & it wasn't long before we were playing Friday, Saturday & bank holidays. We also held a very successful annual DJ competition on a Thursday. 

My big break came in 2001 when I was nominated for best up & coming DJ at the inaugural Welsh dance music awards which I went on to win. Our event at the Slug & Lettuce also won best pre club bar two years running. As a result, I have gone on to hold a number of local residencies & played at numerous events, the most notable being Pete Tong & the heritage orchestra(Cardiff Castle), The Vocal Booth Weekender(Campoamor), Gatecrasher NYE(Cardiff Ice Rink), The Radio 1 Big Weekend(Coopers Field), Time Flies(City Hall, Coal Exchange), Lamerica, Coolhouse, National Anthems, Bionic, Enter The Dragon. I have also been fortunate enough to play alongside the likes of Pete Tong, Grant Nelson, DJ Disciple, Joey Negro, Jazzy M, Bobby & Steve, Graeme Park, Craig Bartlett & Dave Jones, K Klass, Scott Bond, Seb Fontaine, Jon Pleased Wimmin, Judge Jules, John Kelly, DJ Heaven to name but a few.
