Inspired by the sounds of his roots and a backdrop of 70’s & 80’s Soul, Disco, House & Hip Hop, 90’s Acid Jazz, Rare Grooves, Jungle and Garage, DJ Retro Red’s love of music and dance leads him to explore music of all sorts, styles & genres.

DJ Retro Red grew up in the UK, surrounded by the sounds of Ska, Reggae, Rock Steady, Soul and Funk at the infamous Jamaican Yard Sound-System gatherings and house parties - known as ‘Blues Dances’ - that his parents would organise for the local community.

Whether it’s been spinning Soul, bringing back the Disco, diving into the early House scene in the UK & USA ‘back in the days’, skanking to ska or taking people on a journey from Electro to Afro Beats & the Orient to the far East, DJ Retro Red has been performing, spinning the steel and bringing the soul food that is music to generations of dance floor junkies.

Red has since travelled the world, working as a DJ ‘Selecta’ across the globe. He now resides in Melbourne, Australia & is still bringing down the house as he DJs at local, national and international events.

This event is presented in collaboration with City of Melbourne
