Biography 'Benny Dawson' (BIOGRAPHY 1988 - 2010)
Well for 24 years plus ! DJ Benny Dawson has been entertaining people with his infectious brand of music. Having started playing at family functions and weddings, then opening and playing to packed clubs all over the world, Benny has been at the forefront of the dance scene. He is able to establish an instant connection with the crowds, allowing him to evoke feelings, goose bumps and déjāvu, right up there with life changing experiences.
Starting in Johannesburg in the early 80's, he had an enormous influence in the creation of the dance culture. He held various residencies, namely: Johnny Rockets night club, Dukes, Masquerade, Rokafellaz, The White Horse Inn and Gates. Benny then went on to open, design and manage ESP which was formerly Idols and The Castle with Michael Coyle (Castle Dance Productions).
He ran and helped DJ Dizzy (Dean John Athienides) with the Bluehouse trio ‘raves’ and was involved at various levels in many big name productions, namely: Activate, The Boom Raves, Fluid, Krush 1 and 2, Liquid Dreams, Thump, Throb, Hell Raver, Looking for Love, Natural Born Ravers, Mother Raves, Strictly Rhythm, Soundfactory, Sextacy, Sphere Raves, Squeeze, Shut Your Mouth, Spiritual Awakening, Warp and others.
From Raves to residencies, Benny was there, organizing, promoting and driving the scene from a hands on basis. This led Benny to working for Gallo records for 3 years, where he got into music production and radio, working with Titch Mataz, on one of South Africa’s top radio stations 5fm.
Having played all over South Africa from big cities to small towns, Benny started producing and releasing albums around this time. His first mixed album to go commercial in 1998 was ‘Sooped up’ David Gresham which sold out.
Having had the opportunity to be the opening act for Sasha and John Digweed’s Northern Exposure, Benny wanted to broaden his horizons and share his music. Overseas was beckoning, and Benny left our shores to play in clubs from London to Ibiza, spreading his love for music. He played at various guest slots in the UK including Boxfresh in 2006, The Metro Clubs in London 2007, St Albans and Luton, Bourne Slippery 2010, Echo Boat Party London 2010.
In Benny’s words: :I would say my music has a mellow techy house vibe, it can be trancey baleric and have an uplifting smile sound, sometimes dark, light and warm all after each other. I like to lift people then drop them into a warm happy break that inspires rather than enquirers, but that would be giving it away. I also enjoy large build ups and complete changes.”
At present Benny enjoys playing uplifting trance, but this versatile artist does not limit himself to any one style of music. Benny’s flexible nature, and true, genuine love of music, allows him to please and interact with diverse crowds. He makes sure his crowd experiences the feeling of being one with the music. Mind, body & soul become captivated by the uplifting sounds, causing bodies to ebb & flow to every beat, every movement a pulse of energy igniting the dance floor into a unison of pure musical euphoria.

Biography 'Dakova Dae' (BIOGRAPHY 2010)
What we need on the dance scene right now are new rays of hope and you can’t get brighter than this. Double bachelors degree, SAE graduate in Music Production and one of the first females to play Godskitchen Australia … Brains beauty and musical talent all in one package; 23 year old Dakova Dae.
She has thrown herself headlong into the music industry not only contributing with promotions for Future Entertainment and Lemon and Lime, but proving her dj’ing skills with a distinctive sound fusing dark moody tech, bassline-driven trance, with a touch of atmospheric progressive-psy at her gigs. It is this unique and unmistakable edge that has seen her play at Godskitchen, Liberate Festival, Luv Tech and many more events around Brisbane and the Gold Coast in only a little over a year. Her unforgettable presence and skills behind the decks have also just seen Dakova catapult herself into the Central Station DJ Battle Grand-final, to take place later this year.
Here was a woman on a mission. Taking on a role with Sense.fm her enthusiasm and dedication was recognised early, and soon she was demonstrating her multi-tasking skills with everything from voice-overs to marketing. Add to that a brand new role with UK’s Beatsmedia handling artist interviews and Dakova is already proving herself as a total all-rounder, challenging the stereotypes of women in the music industry.
You wouldn’t think there were enough hours in the day for Dakova right now, as she prepares to enter the world of producing and remixing into 2011, but on top of all this she has decided to make a full on attack on the airwaves with her radio show “Beat Retreat”.
“Beat Retreat” reflecting the innovative attitude of sense.fm gives Dakova the platform to promote some of the most exciting and forward-thinking global producers. Recorded live and launched in August 2009, the show has already received attention in Australia and Europe after only the first outing, with the show now on regular rotation across numerous stations including totaal.fm and slinky.fm. Requests for guest appearances also flooded in, Taste of Trance Australia, and Massive Trax in Europe, an opening that will see her guesting on Massive’s weekly shows for danceradio and slinky.fm. Dakova less than one year into her performing career is ready to perform back 2 back with Dominik De Leon (fka DuMonde) and Kontor Germany and Massive Trax producer Jay Frog (JBF).
Not only a talented DJ but a shrewd woman with law and business degrees, she has proved her back-room music skills, enlisting the support of DJ Promotional sites coast-to-coast, from Intercity Records in the UK to Kontakt Recordings in the USA, and gaining backing from Germany’s A World Of Trance in early 2010; demonstrating this woman’s global appeal.
With sets progressing from deep minimal-influenced tech through to maximal driving trance this young, distinctive and energetic artist is destined to make a lasting impression as she hits the decks and the studio into 2011!
Dakova’s star is rising… and it won’t be long before she is one of the brightest on the scene.
