    their own biography

    the whole biography
    Steeped in Miami’s B-boy culture, it was classic electro & Miami bass that conceived Danny Daze's love for the experimental Dutch electro & Detroit Techno scenes of the 90’s. Labels like Schematic in Miami, Interdimensional Transmissions from Detroit & Viewlexx out of The Hague set the foundation for Daze. Daniel Gomez adopted his Daze moniker early on at his mother’s suggestion. Practicing on a set-up she bought him, Daze was spinning at weddings by age 14, funneling his earnings into vinyl to play raves on the side. That eventually led to producing his first tracks in 2004 on a cracked version of Fruity Loops and later that year, he jumpstarted a electro / techno white label called Omniamm. Daze’s risk-taking & punk approach is at the core of everything he does and it’s a big part of the ethos of his current label, Omnidisc. "We're not searching for chart topping hits. We’re more interested in curating a catalog of music you’ll remember when you walk out the door. We seek out tracks that are as raw as possible & welcome imperfections. We love the charm of an unpolished record”, says Daze. It’s also this freeform & experimental approach together with an element of surprise that sets him apart from the pack as both a DJ & Producer. As a DJ, he prefers to express his versatility across long sets. He is known to cut & weave from Electro to Techno into Italo Disco, into a record by Yazoo deliberately intended to provoke a reaction. “I once played a Paula Abdul record at Berghain… basically, it’s like it or leave it,” says Daze. As a producer, his output ranges from releases on Kompakt’s Speicher series, to remixes on Phantasy, Comeme, Monkeytown & more… but he also reaches far beyond techno & has created original runway soundtracks for award winning American streetwear designer John Elliott & the Australian brand Song for the Mute. "I’m obsessed with the detailed manipulation of audio. It’s at the core of how I make music & I constantly feel the need to involve myself with projects that challenge & allow me to think out of the box... whether it’s creating a single recognizable noise for the new MacBook, or an advert for a fashion campaign blending original music with sound design,” says Daze. Danny Daze’s radical approach to preserving music’s integrity while breaking its boundaries may seem volatile, but it’s not random. “I’ve always gone against the grain & it’s important for everything I do to feel authentic. There isn't much difference between Daniel Gomez and Danny Daze.” BOOKINGS: For EU bookings please contact: ned@lb-agency.net & chris@lb-agency.net For US and SA bookings please contact: ryan@liasonartists.com For Australia bookings please contact: Wade@FinelyTuned.com.au For press and management enquiries please contact: mgmt@omnidisc.co

    the whole biography
    Hailing from Rio de Janeiro and now firmly rooted in Brooklyn, Deo’Jorge is a multifaceted DJ, music producer, and event curator who has reshaped dance music communities across two continents. From his early days designing and directing art campaigns for major brands in Brazil to becoming the driving force behind influential nightlife movements, Deo’s journey has always been fueled by a relentless passion for authenticity and connection. In Brazil, Deo co-founded O/NDA, a groundbreaking free-party collective celebrated for reclaiming public spaces in Rio and creating a safe, inclusive environment at a massive scale. Initially a spontaneous birthday gathering, O/NDA quickly evolved into a vibrant cultural movement drawing thousands of people into the city’s underused and iconic locations. After moving to New York in 2017, Deo launched Hot Honey Sundays, initially a low-key, bring-your-own-beer event on the Greenpoint waterfront. It rapidly became one of Brooklyn’s favorite dance gatherings, attracting both legendary artists and emerging local talent. Over the past five years, Hot Honey Sundays has filled iconic venues including Knockdown Center, Brooklyn Mirage, and Elsewhere, returning now to Greenpoint in partnership with BK Backyard to reignite the neighborhood’s creative legacy. Known for his dynamic sets, Deo effortlessly weaves together deep house, soulful grooves, Latin rhythms, and sharp electronic textures, always keeping the energy fresh and dancefloors packed. His monthly residency at Dead Letter further solidifies his reputation as a tastemaker with a genuine connection to the crowd. Driven by community, diversity, and a sharp critique of commercialization in nightlife, Deo remains deeply committed to keeping music accessible, joyful, and meaningful. Whether behind the decks or orchestrating an event, Deo’Jorge creates experiences rooted in authenticity, spontaneity, and pure dancefloor magic.

    Miami-bred duo INVT are known for their sound system-focused music, blending club genres with dub influences, swung rhythms, and Latin-rooted percussion. Their catalog spans over 200 tracks, alongside live hardware performances and DJ sets at institutions including DC-10 (Circoloco), Fabric, Panorama Bar, Blitz, Club Space, Nowadays and Draaimolen, with notable b2bs with acts like Skream, Skee Mask, Sammy Virji, Bradley Zero and DJ Python. Emerging independently during the pandemic, INVT built momentum through a prolific run of self-released music on Bandcamp, quickly earning support from some of the most influential DJs in the world. Sustaining that momentum through consistent releases, the duo became recognized for a high-volume yet high-quality output. All aspects of the project are developed in house by the pair. They write, produce, mix, and master their own music, while also designing the visual side of the project themselves through clothing collections, art exhibits, videos, and album artwork.
