About Me |
|
Longtime player in the global dance music scene with numerous singles, remixes and compilation appearances under his belt, Jason "DJ Shine" Spanu's reputation is well known among some of the world's top DJ's and artists. His performances are a live PA/DJ combination that have rocked dancefloors at huge events and underground jams from Mexico City to Vienna. Currently on a world tour as the programmer in Nelly Furtado's live band, Jason will be putting the finishing touches on his second full length CD 'Attention Deficit Disco' on the bus between gigs this winter. Click above to check a new mix-set recorded in January 2007. This half-hour studio session is a real-time multi-dimensional view of his technique, with some backup viz using Resolume. Jason uses Abelton Live with Final Scratch to reshape the sounds of minimal, electro, techno and house music.

"Shine's technique is so on point that he put the atmosphere back in tech house and made it more melodic than ever before. Literally every cut on here is butter." vybemusik.com "Intelligent techno, jazzy house or classic electro, there isn't really much DJ SHINE can't put his fingers on. It's a mature and sophisticated work for a debut." Klublife Magazine "DJ SHINE finds a happy medium between house's lush, clubby side and the experimental bent of its avant-garde. In his capable hands, accessibility and intrigue foil each other nicely." Eye Weekly "deep, charismatic and thought provoking (also placed ..1 in electronic charts nov+dec 2001) Urbnet.com Download or mail-order DJ Shine's music at the nice+smooth online shop |
