The Progcast - Episode 182 - Dave Walker

Love all types of dance music. 
Mostly house and techno

I'm a complete music nut! Music is everything to me and I couldn't live a day without it! Ask anyone, you won't see me without my headphones lol :-)

I'm also the founder or Raveability. A group that assists ravers with disabilities getting out of the house and onto the trancefloor. Take a look at the FB page or website for more details. ♿️❤️🎵
Lol I've also founded a group for the more mature ravers. Wrynkly Ravers. 
Come and join in the fun there too if you're up for it! 😁🤣

I like all types of genres but I have a particular fondness for progressive trance, goan trance, hard house, funky house and chill out. To be honest just plug me into most Trance and I'm happy :-)

I'd love to be able to produce music, I have tried to dabble with Cubase but couldn't seem to get my head around it (totally self taught and I prob should buy a tutorial book huh!) I do hope to get a tutor to teach me as I know in my head and heart that I could make amazing tunes. Whether you'll like them or not I'm unsure but my reason for making music is for me and if you like it then even better :-) UPDATE: Ha still to busy listening to all that fab music out there to get my finger out and actually teach myself :-) hehehehe :-) 

Until then I shall happily listen to all the talented producers on here and my life will be full & content! Happy dancing folks! :-)

Micky Stardust (English Blood, Irish Heart) is a chart-topping, multi-genre music producer known for his dynamic range and innovative sound. Specialising in Classic Trance, Progressive House, Techno, Deep House, Tech House, Mainstage, Drum & Bass, and Afro House, he refuses to be confined to a single genre. Every track he creates is driven by passion—if it doesn’t ignite his hyper-focus, it doesn’t get released.

2025: The Takeover Begins

With so much already planned for 2025, Micky is gearing up for his biggest year yet. Named as one to watch for 2024 on Beatport’s Main Floor Trance On Our Radar Chart, he has already made a mark in the industry. A 4x Remix Contest Winner and shortlisted for 15+ more, his music continues to gain recognition. While he has released on multiple labels, he’s now focused on self-releasing until the right major label offer comes along.

Record Labels:

✅ Trance FC
✅ Purple Fly Records
✅ Jandex Records
✅ Xclusive Records
✅ DNAR Records (Upcoming Release)
✅ Day Dose Of House (Upcoming Release)
… and many more.

Ghost Production Labels:

🎵 Bounce Heaven
🎵 Faculty One
🎵 Excite Digital
🎵 Mustache Crew Records (Malik Mustache)

Micky’s ability to adapt, innovate, and push boundaries makes him a standout artist in the music industry. His music isn’t just sound—it’s a movement. 2025 is his year, and it’s only just beginning.
