Danny is one of the few DJs on the scene today that truly has a style of his own. With his passion for all styles of music and infectious personality, Danny has created a unique, eclectic sound that has established him as one of the top DJs in the world. Danny is one of the hardest working and most dedicated individuals in the business with over 16 years experience and a hectic touring schedule that constantly takes him around the world..
Danny's most recent compilation was his eclectic selection for the highly acclaimed Choice series on Azuli, which received fantastic reviews worldwide, whilst previously he underwent an intense world tour to promote his addition to the long running Global Underground series, GU27 Miami - having already released a Nu-Breed and a 24/7 mix for the label, Danny was the obvious choice. This adds to Danny's continually growing back catalogue of mixes for labels such as Renaissance as well as his own Nocturnal Frequencies series. His mixes have also made waves on the world famous Essential Mix, where his fourth mix aired in early 2007.
It's not just as a DJ where Danny has made a name for himself, he's also an accomplished producer and remixer. Together with production partner Dick Trevor, the pair have been responsible for many stand out tracks, including the timeless Persuasion/Repercussion on Bedrock Records, Breathe on Renaissance Records.
Danny is a DJ with a broad musical taste who likes anything from jazz to rock, to pop and anything a bit bizarre. He likes to champion his own special tracks and records that nobody else has latched on to and has a way of combining cutting edge grooves with crowd pleasing dynamics that enable him to connect with his audience making him one of the hottest DJs in the world.
Danny Howells returns to the world of mix CDs this September with his entry into the "Renaissance: Mix Collection" series.
Howells, of course, got his big break warming up the crowd for John Digweed at Bedrock. Spreading his wings past the prog colossus, he quickly became one of the biggest draws in progressive house himself in the late '90s and early '00s through this relentless touring and spate of mix CD's. That said, it's been three long years since we've heard from Howells mix-wise.
That all changes in early September when Renaissance: The Mix Collection will be released on the label of the same name. Over two discs, Howells has crafted one of his trademark journeys into sound that according to the man himself "is a lot deeper than I've done before... it's a lot more melodic." With a track listing that includes a Lawrence remix of Solomun and Stimming, as well as Al Usher and Ewan Pearson's dub of Kelley Polar's "Entropy," we're inclined to believe him. As always, Howells will be bringing along some special tricks, so expect a host of exclusives, remixes, and edits as well.
