DJ DONBEAR

Sydney club nights shaped DJ DONBEAR, who has been playing live since 1998. He came up through the city's bars and clubs, then started running events of his own, and held residencies at places like The Basement, Monkey Bar, Hillside Hotel, La Cita, Bar Cleveland and the Bella Vista Hotel. After working around the country he moved into music production, putting together mix-tapes of R&B, soul, funk and Latin. That's a useful clue to what he does best. If your crowd likes a groove it can move to, those four styles give him plenty to work with across a long night.
