DJ BIO:

    DJ Sean Ryan is a up and coming DJ, re-entering the club and rave scene in Colorado. DJ Sean Ryan is known by his dirty raw electro house and electro trance,  captivating audiences around the Denver area for the past  (16) years.

    DJ Sean Ryan’s inspiration came from his deep passion and love for Electronic Music. It brought a strong and powerful feeling into his world; one where he felt he could truly express his power and emotions, letting everything out. 

    Going to parties, raves, and clubs, DJ Sean Ryan began to evolve his deeper, more intimate love and passion with the Electronic Music.  DJ Sean Ryan started DJ’ing in the year 2000, working day and night  to really grasp his own style of mixing and music selection.  A year later, DJ Sean Ryan began playing out at house parties, raves, and the clubs in 2001, winning over peoples hearts.  For the next eight (8) years, DJ Sean Ryan has played all over the Denver  in various Night Clubs, such as BETA Night Club, The Funky Buddha and now Lincoln Street Station, Vinyl Nightclub,The Church Nightclub. Because of the talent and tenacity shown in his professionalism and his mixes, production companies such as,  High Voltage Collective, Ryan Dykstra Nightlife, Roofless Productions, Beat Sniperz Production, Qvents Production and Imagination Productions were wanting DJ Sean Ryan to be affiliated with them. This gave DJ Sean Ryan the opportunity to play more gigs and became a local favorite with his Electro House, Trance and Progressive music and abilities.

    Electronic Music, being a successful DJ, and producing means everything to DJ Sean Ryan.  He works two (2) to three (3) hours everyday trying to improve and grow as a well known DJ/Producer. Because DJ Sean Ryan left the scene for five (5)  years taking care of his father who is deathly ill, he is working even harder then ever to regain his status in the Denver club scene.  With the help of one of the greatest DJ’s he has have ever met, DJ Mateusz, DJ Sean Ryan has improved his DJ skills and has a better understanding of the music and sound. As DJ Mateusz has always told him, “it’s one thing to love the music, it’s a whole different thing understanding music and having a deeper appreciation for music.” Its because of close friends and family that DJ Sean Ryan is still able to chase and live his dream of being a well recognized DJ/Producer.

    Furthermore, DJ Sean Ryan firmly believes the quote “Support Your Local DJ”. Without people’s love and support, he would be unable to chase his dream!

    I would like to thank my family, friends and all my followers for sticking with me and letting me go for my dream.

    Thank You!

I am just starting out as a techno and house producer, based in Kent.  I have been into house and techno since I was fourteen, being blown away by early Chicago House made on 808's and 303's and 707's.  I always remember listening to Nitro Deluxe - Lets get Brutal and thinking ' Yup -  this is some of me ! '  

I was lucky enough to be working in Soho as a teenager in 1988, when it all kicked off and would spend hours upon hours in Blackmarket Records and other record stores around the West End.  Yes, I am an old git, and still loving it.

For me the music is ALL about the vibe and feeling.  

I'm a classically trained pianist - so enjoy listening to Classical, I also love 80's pop ! Especially synth-pop.

I'm Just starting out producing, so on a very steep learning curve, but having heaps of fun.

I'm looking to improve my production and collaborate with other like-minded people with a view to putting on some decent local parties.

No Techno - No Party.

Nitro Deluxe - Let's get Brutal
Cultural Vibe - Ma Foom bey

I also love old hardcore - especially UK hardcore.

Also big Bros fan, still.  Love Matt Goss.  Beautiful heavenly voice and highly underrated.

I'm a HUGE Drumcode Fan, and make the annual trip too Tobacco Dock for their immense Halloween Party, where I get stuck into that filthy car park !

My biggest inspiration are my two young boys ( 6 and 3 )- I learn from them every day about being a human being.

Be Kind -  Be nice  - and Be Truthful kids.

In the summer of 1983 Greg was flipping through radio stations and landed on a local radio station that played a lot of urban and dance music. Every night they would play mixes. The first time Greg heard this he thought it was one long song but then noticed the songs were completely different. He thought this was so cool and then needed to figure out how it was done.

He went to a local supplier and bought two cheap turntables trying to replicate the mixes. Having little success he realized it was the cheap turntables that were limiting him. He decided that if he was going to be able to mix he would need better equipment. He went out and bought the high end turntables that they were using at the radio station which allows for a record to be sped up or slowed down. This made it much easier to match the beats of different songs together.

He had his friends listen to the mixes as he refined his technique and they told him what needed improvement. He listened to them all and took their advice and kept listening to the radio for inspiration. After he came home from work every day he would practice and practice until he thought he had a good mix put together. After months and months of practicing the mixes were getting quite good and friends were letting others know about them. More and more people started asking for mix tapes which he made for those that asked.

As the mixes got better so did the equipment. The money he made off the mix tapes went into buying new equipment.

As the mixing part of the business kept growing so did interest. Party promoters started contacting Greg about mixing for parties. He did them one after another. Some of these parties included other DJs also such as Bad Boy Bill, Mickey "Mixin" Oliver & Ralphi "The Razz" Rosario who were the mixers that Greg heard on the local radio station.

Since then he has played at many bars, pubs, taverns and night clubs in and around the Chicagoland area and continues to improve his skills. Some of these include:

Filthy McNasty's Pub - Chicago
Lasko's Tavern - Chicago
Memories Bar - Chicago
Scruffy Murphy's Irish Pub - Chicago
The Cabana Club - Chicago
Bently's Nightclub - Rosemont
Rizzo's Bar - Naperville
The Metro - Chicago
and many others.

In 2006, some of Greg's past experiences have been inspiration for a Novel called "The Groover's Last Stand". Some of his experiences in real life have been fictionalized in the main character, "George, The Groover".
