The Cheynie story started in 1993 when he got his hands on the Fantasia Big Bang Mix tape courtesy of his now DJ inspiration Mr Carl Cox!



On his 14th birthday Cheynie was given his first set of turn tables and the DJ bug took hold. This led to Cheynie organising his own under 18's parties which he called Total Confusion and attracted some of the biggest names in the Rave Scene.
As a result of this success Cheynie was invited to play at some of Scotland’s biggest raves including Fusion, Judgement Day, Dance Concept and Fubar in Stirling.

Cheynie became one of the youngest (only 16), most exciting and innovative DJ's on the scene at the time.

Since then Cheynie has held many high profile residencies including Love Distinction at the Bishops and Town hall in Elgin plus Ivy,Aberdeen aswell as Snafu, one of Scotlands leading clubs he's also a regular for Digital Love,Aberdeen. This has allowed him to perform alongside some of the world's biggest DJ's - Sasha, Joris Voorn, Eddie Halliwell, Nic Fanciulli, Judge Jules, Chris Lake, Timo Mass, Mauro Picotto, The Japanese Popstars, Fergie, Lisa Lashes, Marco Bailey, Graham Park, Lil Louis, Slam, Cagedbaby, Alan Braxe, Tall Paul, Seb Fontaine, Anne Savage, Lisa Pin Up, Tidy Boys and Jeremy Healy to name a few! His professionalism was recognised by these DJ's and prompted Eddie Halliwell and Lisa Lashes to ask for him personally to warm-up for them on their visits to Aberdeen.



Gigs and appearances at some of the finest dance venues in Scotland including the Subclub in Glasgow, London, Leeds and a Summer in Ibiza followed. During his stint in Ibiza Cheynie was asked to DJ at the world's biggest nightclub - Priviledge. Summer's 2009/2010 saw Cheynie wowing festival-goers in the Snafu tent at the Wizard festival.



Not content with DJ'ing Cheynie regularly promotes his own night Digital Disco which is growing in status and is set for sum big parties in 2013. Cheynie also hosted  his own successful internet radio show called Digital Disco on Deveron FM which ran for 8 years and featured the likes of Eddie Halliwell, Chris Lake, Fergie & Disco legend Greg Wilson.



Bringing the Cheynie story bang up to date...2014 see's him reaching 20 years in the scene using The Pioneer DJM2000,EFX 1000 & RMX 1000 remix station in his sets as well as his own re-edits making it a more live and exclusive performance.



Cheynie is equally at home playing a bar warming up for big acts or rocking the main room at 3am with his own inimitable style which can include Disco, House, Tech, Progressive right up to Techno ….. with the odd classic thrown in now and again.
A confident performer Cheynie’s set is technically of the highest standard and packed with character, originality and energy
