Dúhas (DOO-has) — Derived from Gaelic term ‘dùthchas’ - Meaning ‘a sense of belonging’ to something/somewhere… 

Dúhas is the solo project of Scottish DJ and aspiring producer Craig Macleod — Marking a new chapter in his sonic journey. With a renewed drive to deepen his production skills and bring his creative ideas to life, Dúhas represents a shift toward fully embracing the craft of music-making and sharing it with the world.

The name Dúhas is derived from the Gaelic word dùthchas, meaning “a sense of belonging” — a concept that resonates deeply with Craig. Music has long been his constant, something he’s turned to through all of life’s highs and lows. Now, it becomes the focus of his next chapter.

After more than a decade in a demanding career, Craig is taking a well-earned break — giving him the space to recover from (hopefully) life-changing surgery and to finally invest the time and energy needed to realise his musical ambitions.

Since first stepping behind the decks in 2018, originally inspred by a fateful trip to Ibiza in 2016, Craig has cultivated a sharp ear for track selection, developing a deep and methodical digging process alongside a refined mixing style. Under the alias KYZ-R, he explored the worlds of techno and minimal. More recently, he has immersed himself in melodic techno, as the @CarnFada selector. His first major opportunity coming via a mix competition win to support Framewerk for TLF’s 10th birthday. Since then performing regularly as a resident at EVADE in Aberdeen and more recently appearing for Manchesters up & coming MELODIQ, whilst continually sharing mixes, some through channels like FFS and Housetape Radio.

Blending atmospheric textures, abstract soundscapes, and emotive grooves, KYZ-R draws inspiration from artists like Stephan Bodzin, Township Rebellion, Metodi Hristov, Nihil Young, Lauren Mia, and Oliver Huntemann to name a few, a long with labels such as Steyoyoke, Senso Sounds, Interstellar Recordings, and Stil Vor Talent.

Now, through Dúhas, Craig is stepping into a new & exciting creative space — channeling all he’s learned into a focused, personal project with clear intent and fresh momentum. With ambitions to carve out out a sound that’s emotional, ethereal & abstract - crafted to stir the senses and take listeners on an immersive journey through evolving rhythms and atmospheric soundscapes.

Let’s see where it leads.

Dj Xtina’s love for electronic music has spanned more than two decades, but it is only recently that she has made the decision to get back behind the booth and develop her own unique sound and style.

Her taste in music is wide spanning and often eclectic, but her signature sounds of deep house, progressive and melodic techno are what she has become known for since her public debut in April 2019.

You can expect her sets to be smooth and sultry, building up to hard, dirty bass lines with harmonic overtones and soul touching vocals, which call you on to the dance floor.

She also has a penchant for old school classics and enjoys playing a mixed genre, multi-generational set to a diverse crowd, weaving in a few surprises along the way.

Her musical journey has been steady and positive so far, playing in the private party and corporate events scene, as well as warehouse, boat and club parties on both the east and west coast of Australia and in Fiji.

She is a resident DJ for Friendz Club Australia and Shameless Joy Sound Collective, both based in Perth and in 2020 Dj Xtina was also signed on as the first Perth based artist for AUDIOANGELS, a female music agency based in Melbourne.

Her most noteworthy gigs to date are opening for Dave Seaman and Edu Imbernon at Civic Underground in Sydney for T1000 Events; supporting Serge Devant and Danni B at Cloud 9 in Fiji and an opening set at in the Solouk Chillout Tent at the inaugural Blossom Festival in Marradong, WA. Dj Xtina has also been invited to play a live mix for the Looney Choons show on RTRfm 92.1, which is streamed nationally around Australia, and livestream multiple times for ShinyPeople, an entertainment group based out of Switzerland – who she will be playing her first European gig for in Jul 2022.

Dj Xtina also has her own music agency, Red Ginger Music, after being selected as the first resident DJ for The Island at Elizabeth Quay and contracted to source and manage their DJs ongoing. She has since had multiple corporate and private clients through this new avenue, employing numerous talented local DJs, musicians and artists across different venues in Perth.
