    their own biography

    the whole biography
    Blending classic house with the raw energy of percussive dance, and ghetto tech, Dennis creates a sound that’s both soulful & rhythmic with driving basslines. His sets—ranging from 120 to 140 BPM—have an undeniable pulse that pulls dancers into a communal trance which has quickly allowed him to carve out a name as one of the most exciting young tastemakers in dance music. Dennis has graced iconic stages like London’s Fabric and Drumsheds, sharing bills with notable acts like A-Trak, Loco Dice, Peggy Gou, Carlita, HoneyLuv, Questlove, Moodymann & more. Alongside features in Rolling Stone, Office Mag and Resident Advisor, Dennis’ influence stretches beyond the booth. As a founding force behind Brooklyn’s Level III Collective, the grassroots movement that started as a humble apartment party has now evolved into a multifaceted collective known for its vibrant, inclusive community of clubbers & music fans alike.
