Thursday March 13th @ Vessel [85 Campton place]
With DJs Dan, Rooz, Vahid
Holy moly, DJ Dan at Vessel on a thursday night! Wow this is going to be a huge one. I mean c'mon, one of SF's most favorite djs and one of the top DJs in the world spinning at a cool intimate club like Vessel. The only way to get a glimpse of DJ Dan these days is to see he him behind dark decks with a 30 foot stage infront of you. That's why this is one of those rare occasions on a thursday nights that just cant be missed. I cant wait to spin with Dan, he is one of the coolest and friendliest big time DJs in the industry. His banging electro style would be perfect for a jumpin thursday nigt at Vessel.
When asked about the direction of music today, Dan says, "Music is hard to categorize now than it's ever been. Techno guys playing tracks slowed down could be house...speeded up could be techno. I don't think it should be classified. It should be based on if it's good or not. A good record is a good record."
As for his own persona, DJ Dan defies the conventional wisdom that the DJ has to retain a kind of standoffish mystique. "I got into this," says Dan, "because I love how people unite on the dance floor, bringing in their own energy and excitement. So, I never turn my back on the crowd." And they've never turned their backs on him. DJ Dan remains a towering figure in the world of dance music, always a step ahead in bringing new musical styles to his fans. He is a DJ for the people burning up dance floors around world.
