Born and Raised In Los Angeles. His love for the "scene" began at the tender age of 14 when older peers would take him to "Day Parties" skipping school and dancing to all the old undergound hits like "Who is Elvis", "Some Lovin'" and "Fire Alarm" to name a few. This led him to take trips to the now gone DMC RECORD store on melrose to buy those oh so tasty House, Techno and Hardcore mixtapes that he would play loud as fuck every afternoon on his portable boombox.
He has been collecting records and dj'ing since about 95', having spun all kinds of electronic genres such as Dutch Happy Gabber, UK Happy Hardcore, Old School Techno, Classic Deep House. He has traveled the United States spinning under the name BUDDY BLUE and deemed the "Prince of Happy Gabber" for his incredibly ridiculous collection. Around 2000 he decided to start focusing on collecting Nu-Electro,Techno and House records and added the name David Banjela as a new alias. He has played at countless of raves, Clubs and Warehouse parties for many high profile Los Angeles promoters. He is known for his support of all the different electronic music scenes in Los Angeles without hesitating to shake his ass from a strict house event to a Electro-Clash freak fest and even to a Hard as Nails Techno Ho-down. You can catch him playing at many of the local Electro, Techno and House Clubs in Los Angeles and abroad. He has many mixes available for download.

Fake Diamond was launched in 2006 - during a time when no one in their right mind would start a new, ambitious record label.

The constant growing roster accomodates some of the most interesting and successful bands and solo artists in Denmark. Ever expanding into all musical directions, Fake Diamond is a treasure trove of variety, reaching way beyond the borders of our small country, with an increasing network of collaborating labels and distributors around the world. Oh Land was the first artist to be signed on to a major deal with Epic Records and is an example of Fake Diamonds ability to spot unpolished indie talent, that can cross over to a huge audience. 

Trading on its advantage with a creative office among pioneers from the communication and visual world, in the centre of Copenhagen, Fake Diamond has over the past few years established itself as one of the leading Danish indie labels.
