Ryan Spicer is a DJ/Producer/Events Manager and Ministry of Sound resident DJ and Head Booker hailing from London. Ryan already has years of experience in his locker from performing from an early age, to now regularly performing and promoting events at various prestigious venues across the globe including London and Ibiza, with venues from Printworks to Ministry of Sound to Amnesia to Creamfields to Café Mambo, supporting the world’s leading electronic artists.

Ryan has been putting in the hours building a faithful following through his DJing and production since the age of 16, and he has locked in sets all across the capital and now world at the biggest venues it has to offer. Ryan's sound is rooted in house, but he has an eclectic style that can switch up from chilled poolside beats to big room action, from melodic tracks to high energy fillers. Always a crowd pleaser, but never predictable, Ryan will often throw an unexpected curveball – deep, dark underground house basslines, with perfectly layered well-loved commercial vocals in the mix; always going the extra mile for the crowd, always reaching for that extra edge.

His debut set which was at London’s hallowed Ministry of Sound in 2014 was just the beginning, and since then he has taken his sound to the wider world holding down a residency at Eden & Obeach in Ibiza and has become a Box resident at Ministry of Sound. Alongside that he has had various performances at Ibiza Rocks, performed on the MainStage in Elche Spain at ‘Nits De Festa Elx’ and has also thrown it down inside the iconic Press Halls of Printworks supporting both DJ Snake & ANTS shows. 

He has also performed a headline show at Café Mambo in Ibiza, played the closing set of the Foreverland Stage at We Are FSTVL, performed at both Creamfields North and South and also joined SW4 to be a part of their livestream weekender in replace of the postponed festival during covid, opening the Saturday live online to over 150,000 people. Add to this performances at the likes of E1, 02 Academy Brixton and Electric Brixton, joining Rinse FM, Select, COGO, Data Transmission and Centreforce radios with stellar guest mixes, and joining Lock N Load Events and Louder as an Events Manager/Booker. 

He has been a part of a leading team of promoters in the UK since 2017, and he is now working with Louder and Ministry of Sound as a head booker for FUTURE, and he has also promoted Together, SW4, The Gallery and various other brands/events at the world’s leading venues such as at Amnesia, Alexandra Palace, Wembley Arena, Ministry of Sound, 02 Academy Brixton, Printworks, Eden + many many more. 

In 2017 Ryan began his residency inside Ministry of Sound, meaning he has now supported the likes of ALOK, Steve Aoki, Majestic, Nervo, W&W, R3hab, Nicky Romero, KSHMR, Tchami & Malaa, Maya Jane Coles, Jonas Blue, Mike Williams, Joris Voorn, Paul van Dyk, Sigala, Danny Howard, James Hype, Sigma, Netsky, Zeds Dead, Flux Pavilion, TroyBoi, Jax Jones, Vini Vici and Danny Avila. Ryan’s residency continued for Ministry of Sound when the club reopened in 2021 post covid, and he performed at the unforgettable re-opening party, opening the iconic ‘Box’ main room and being the first act back after the pandemic to play the Box.

On the Production side, 2020 was a huge year for Ryan, as he signed his first ever debut EP ‘Waiting For You’, which was then released in Jan 2021 and reached #1 on the Beatport New House chart. Ryan really made the most of lockdown with debut releases ‘Voices In My Head’ and ‘Sweat’ which were a collabs with Duckworthsound on Showtek’s Label SKINK Records, and a disco house debut track out on PLAYEDiT Records. Numerous releases have followed including a deal with incredible label Perfect Havoc, where he has gained support across Apple Music & KISS from Majestic which featured ‘Can’t Break Again’ as a ‘Fresh Off The Press hit’, and also ‘Miss You Every Day’ which has had over 750K+ Streams with many more releases to follow.

2023 and beyond promises even more releases for Ryan on the production side, including two new signed tracks with Perfect Havoc and huge collaborations on the horizon and also continuing his performances around the globe gaining a following even bigger in stature..

Simon Says...
ARTIST BIO: Started playing guitar young, also piano, bass, drums and singing, also harmonica. Began tape recording and taking Classical Guitar lessons in Gamlin's Pianos music shop in the centre of Cardiff, capital city of Wales. Began to write songs and go to gigs aged 13 or so, also to jam frequently around town. I was given a reel-to-reel and took some jazz lessons, continually jamming guitar and bass and going out drinking. Got me a steel-string and a four-track...not much changed ever since! I'm now 42 years old and a lot wiser, which means I don't drink much...fell ill a couple of years ago and emerged with Nerve Damage (painful) to the left arm, also the bicep, forearm and shoulder muscles had wasted away. Undaunted by the negativity of some experts who said I was henceforth stuck unable to play guitar ever again, I received physiotherapy here in West Wales where I now live and worked hard to redevelop the muscles and feeling in the left arm and, especially, left hand. But the Doctors were half-right. Because I can't turn my arm at the wrist properly or move the hand up and down the neck, I've had to develop a capacity to play over-the-top of the neck, as opposed to underneath, with my fretting hand. It ain't easy! But I love music, and hope to make sounds for the rest of my life.


Yo, I'm Simon Guitar John, and I Love Good Music, and Mine is usually a kind of keyboard-and-guitar based blues-rock, sometimes Acoustic, often Psychedelic.. I had many different influences, mainly British and American, and very diverse, taking in everything from Romantic Classical to Punk Rock. I grew up listening to British Radio, and watching British TV.

The "Guitar" in my Name is just to identify me, there's a few different "Simon John"s on the web who play music. I'm not especially fast or fluent on the guitar, there's thousands of people who can play better than me, but at one point in my life, when I'd just come out of a Coma, one of the Doctors said "Son, you'll never play again" so I've been busy proving the guy wrong ever since. My Guitar-playing is limited, but I always give it my best shot, same when I'm playing Bass, or Piano, or Singing, even Harmonica. 


I get rhythms from a Drum Machine, play a bit of Piano Keyboards, play a little Bass, I can write Lyrics and Sing with various Guitars, and Record it all myself. 43yrs old.. 6ft tall, weighing in at 27 stone. Raised in South Wales UK, I started playing guitar, piano and harmonica at an early age; also recording, too. There are a variety of styles here; my music is multi-genre. Despite all this. I've only recently gone Digital...I bought an 8-track machine a few months back.
