Filled with as much passion as anyone else on the scene Velos first made his mark on the clubbing scene in 2005 when he came runner up in the Tidy Trax DJ Competition. Then a year later, in 2006 Velos entered the competition again, and this time pulled through to be the crowned the winner of the Tidy Trax DJ Compeition 2006 and he has been a driving force in the scene since.

Velos displays a certain quality that the Hard House scene has been crying out for over the last few years, and that quality is versitility. Whether it's Funky, Breaks, Chunky, Groovy, Techno, Hard Trance, Hard House or NRG you can guarantee that Velos will produce a set to leave you gagging for more!

What People Say About Velos

Amadeus Mozart, Slinky (DJ/Producer) – “Velos is a fantastic DJ. Plays a good selection of tough tunes which are very well mixed and put together. The crowd response is always good to what was being played and the interaction with the crowd was also excellent, confident and aware of what was happening. His style seems to be tough and hard in places but mainly uplifting and driving. Gives the crowd what they want. A firm choice with me and firm Slinky favourite!"


Lee Haslam, Slinky (DJ/Producer) – “Velos is definitely a name to watch out for. He really impresses with his confidence behind the decks and with the amount energy that he creates through his mixing and through the good cross section of music that he plays.”
