About DJ Soosh

With a passion for music and love for the craft of DJ'ing, DJ Soosh started DJ'ing in 1997.

He is heavily involved in the art of turntablism (using the turntable as a musical instrument) and this makes him more than just a DJ who plays music but also a musician in his own right. Not genre specific in his approach to DJ'ing, he is influenced by many styles of music such as Hip-Hop, Funk, R&B, Neo Soul, Motown, Dancehall as well as Drum n bass. With over 10 years of experience perfecting his skills, DJ Soosh has undeniably earned massive respect amongst those who have seen him perform as well as those he has worked with.

DJ Soosh is currently endorsed by RANE and promotes their DJ Equipment as well as DC shoes
