BRIOGRAPHY OF DARRYN MC CALLIONDarryn Mc Callion was born in N. Ireland on the 13th March, 1988. He became interested in dance music around the age of 12 when he started going out to the under 18’s dance events @ The Nerve Centre in his home town. There Darryn would have heard the music from the likes of Paul van dyke, rank 1, Hemstock and Jennings and Agnelli & Nelson etc. The next day he would of went out and bought the vinyl from his local record store In Magazine Street called 11th Street Records. At the start he learnt how to beat mix on a set of Gemini belt drive decks and a mixer with only two channels no gain controls or any thing fancy just two channels. It was only a matter of time before he switched to a proper set of turn tables which was a new pair of Technics ( SL1210's ) and a pioneer mixer. In the following years his musical style changed from just the one style of trance to tech trance and hard trance before settling on this type of music which he still plays today. He took his early influences from DJ's like Tiesto, Van Dyke, Matt Hardwick, Fergie, Gleave Dobbins and lots more. After spending the first years perfecting how to mix in the bedroom, he decided that the only way to get anywhere in the dance scene was to be involved in promoting his own nights which was held in bars and small clubs around his town, each night was getting better and better pulling crowds of 200 people in such small places. After loving his first experiences playing out to a crowd it took of from there. Darryn was getting noticed by other promoters using his skills on the turn tables, and he was getting offered gigs on steady bases with small and large promoters. In the last two years Darryn has been playing along some of the world’s greatest trance and hard trance djs and producers like Scott Bond, Marcel woods, Guy ornadel, John O’ Callahan, Greg Downey, Neal Scarborough, Mallorca, Lee Fred Baker RVG and lots more. From then it has just got better as he rips up the dance floors in many night clubs in his country. Last year of 2007 had been a great success for Darryn as he travelled to the sunny island of Ibiza which he had such a big crowd reaction in the bars and clubs there. He did his tour of the island with Bionic and Breath, Transaction, Concept and Rebirth that included djs like Cally and Juice, Frisky L.e.d, Bryan M and Mc Bun, Aviline & Charlie G.
This year 2008, Darryn has been seen to be headlining most events in his home town which is run by small promoters, Darryn says that these events which take place in small clubs is the best atmosphere he has ever experienced, he said you go in to big clubs at times and there is a lot of clubbers there but these clubs is made that big it just seems that there is a lack of crowd, were you’re playing at a small club holding up to two hundred clubbers its just packed out clubbers come in the place fills up and the doors get closed and the party is in full swing its just great !
In the summer of 2008 Darryn will be seen playing at various events to take place again in the best island clubbers could ever ask for yes that’s right you may have guest he is taking his skills on the turntables back to the white isle, Ibiza.
So if you hear this young mans name pop up when you our either abroad or at home clubbers you are definitely in for a good night...
