Daniel aka DMANA has been interested in music from a very young age , at 15 he bought his first set of 1210's in 1993 when jungle was at its peak and house music was also going mainstream , he tirelessly sifted through many records and attempted to try his hand at djaying / mixing however after 2 years of trying he gave up and decided it was not for him ! After selling his decks he became a hardcore clubber going to many Raves / squat parties and now very famous clubs . He decided to study languages , speaking both french and russian fluently . It was only in 2004 that Daniel decided he wanted to try his hand at mixing again and this time it came together and he realised he had a talent for it ! He also wanted to get into the creation of music and studied music technology at Wandsworth college for four years , most recently he studied audio engineering at the prestigious Alchemea college , and is now a certified studio assistant and has just finished an internship at Sound Surgery Stud
