Andy Whitby Posted by SarahPvc on Jun 1, 2003 - 12:00:00 PM

Biography:  Andy has been Ding for almost five years although only one and a half of these have been professional. He is capable of rocking any dance-floor, large or small, regardless of what style of music they wish to hear. Being versatile in the world of Hard-dance DJing is something of a lost art, with many DJ’s staying to one style, heads down, banging it out. Although he is capable of this, he pride his DJing on being able to take many different twists and turns within his set, building it up, bringing it down, throwing in a few surprises, always keeping the dance-floor entertained and most importantly, dancing.

Music Policy: The music he plays now is best described as Hardhouse/Hardtrance although he is able to play a vast selection of styles including Hip-Hop, Drum’n’Bass, Happy Hardcore and Progressive Trance.
