Tylor Leigh
When you think of big name female DJs Lisa Lashes, Anne Savage, Lottie, Smokin Jo and Sister Bliss all come to mind! Unbelievably there has been no significant female trance talent on the UK dance scene until now! Supported by the likes of Radio 1s Fergie and with previous gigs at Passion, Goodgreef, Slinky, The Coach, Garlands and Promise, the budding Princess of Bosh is set to become a name on everyones lips after becoming a Mixmag Future hero. With the above in mind, it is plain to see why she is hotly tipped as the next big thing in trance. Tylor made a number of appearances at the series of Eddie Halliwells own Fire it Up events, having previously torn the roof off at Godskitchen, The Gallery and Cork City Hall! Who would have thought that 22 year old Tylor would play peak time at Goodgreefs 5th Birthday in October 05, the club where she first visited back in ' 99. For Tylor its all about the atmosphere, which means building up her sets tune by tune, choosing the right moment for it to hit its peak. Combine this with energetic crowd interaction and you have the recipe for one big party!!
Greg Downey
Greg Downey began DJing over 6 years ago and in this time has established himself firmly among the best young DJs in the UK. Born in Belfast - Ireland, Greg developed a taste for tougher electronic dance music from a young age. He has reflected this in his unique style which combines underground and uplifting trance with elements of techno… The result.. An Explosive sound! Greg's first big break came when he was spotted DJing at an after club in Ibiza in 2000 by the Gatecrasher Ibiza promoter. He was immediately asked to play for them at the legendary Space club. From there things went from strength to strength. Greg won the prestigious DJ competition held by superclub Eden and went on to play for Euphoria and Tonic at Eden, Sundissential, Storm and the massive MTV Medonism Festival. The result was a featured article in Mixmag highlighting Greg as one of the hottest young DJs around. Back in Ireland more success followed with Greg winning Ireland's BBM Magazine DJ Competition. This led onto bookings at some of the biggest clubs there, including The Coach and The Network. Greg then received a full-page feature in The Sunday Life, Ireland's biggest newspaper. Having established a strong following in his home country, Greg made the short overseas trip to England, where he is now based, and started to make himself known on the DJ curcuit playing at superclubs Goodgreef, Slinky, The Gallery, Passion, the Escape and The Coach to name but a few. At only 24 years of age, Greg's many achievements alongside his outstanding technical ability and desire to succeed, will make 2007 a massive year for him.
