Dan Ghenacia has cut an influential figure within Paris's house music scene over the past two decades.
After discovering house and techno in the early nineties, Dan immersed himself in the Paris rave scene. His love affair with music was solidified when he spent a year in San Diego, California in his early twenties, soaking up West Coast house and psychedelia through his key inspiration – Mark E Quark. After 12 months Dan returned to Paris and opened his own store Traffic Records. This allowed him to import and showcase the sound he discovered in California and he was soon DJing at various spots around the French capital, quickly making a name for himself.
In 2002 he took things international and began playing at DC10 in Ibiza, becoming a resident in 2004 of Circoloco parties. Dan also lives in Ibiza throughout the summer, which has led to him building a deep relationship with the mystical island.
He has ventured into multiple different music. He wanted to make sure that his connection with art was still alive through music by creating Art Of Wave, a collaborative project with Tolga Fidan. The pair create carefully crafted music to accompany visual art in galleries and museums. Artists include: Mathieu Chavaren, Andres Ciccone, Ana Popescu and Etienne Gayard.
As Dan is always hungry for a new challenge, he also diversified into new genres such as UK break beats by creating another duo project with Tolga Fidan under the name AOW and remixing reggae under the project name Dig Da Dub.
