It was at an early age (13) that this young talent started to develop a strong interest for electronic music. His origin from a big metropolis like Porto (Portugal) alowed him to grow up in a very strong dance scene, probably one of the best in europe from 1995/2003.
Djs like David Morales, Tony Hunphries, Frankie Knucles, Angel Moraes, Jeff Miles, Carl Cox, Eric Morillo Tom Stephan, Rob Di Stephano Danny Tenaglia, and so many others were flewing in and out of the country to some of the best parties ever seen...not forgeting nacional names like Dj Vibe,The Fox Dj Jiggy, Carlos Manaca, A Paul, Frank Maurel, Carlos Fauvrelle,Mike Morales, Pete Tha Zouk, that along the years have produced such an amont of great music, as well as presenting people with the best arround the world in what concerns dance music and puting Portugal in the map of the internacional dance scene, having Rob Di Stephano and Danny Tenaglia both of them american djs and recognised worldwide for beeing undeground dance music embassators supporting the portuguese dance snene and promoting portuguese productions like -So Get Up from U.S.L. and so many others.In 2000, Ted Dlight, got is first break as a resident dj in a small club in Porto, and having the beach as a background he was playing in afterhours organised by promoters of afterprties from clubs like Pacha, Buddha Club, Vaticano Club, Soundplanet and others. Here he shared the dj bootn with names like Dj Jiggy, Carlos Manaca, Henry Josh,Miguel Macedo...A year later as a result of a dj competition Ted Dlight was invited for a weekly radioshow named after the Tv program Dance TV hosted and produced by one of the most important icons in the portugese dance scene, Dj The Fox, broadcasted in one of the biggest radio stations in town Ted had the opurtunity to play live for thousands and thousands of listeners across the country and in the global net. This obviously brought him invitations from promoters to play at private parties and in clubs like Get It where he took another afterhours residency, Saturdays from 7 am till 2 pm the clubbers from Porto would go there week after week to celebrate the love for dance music.In late october 2005 Ted with thirsty of knowlege and a strong will to learn more about electronic music and get other influences decided to move to the U.K and is currently trying as a freelancer Dj in The East of England.He made is first break in the market and plays in one of the best venues in East Anglia (Mercy Nightclub),with Hed Funk events in Both Roccos Bar an the V.I.P. Lounge of Mercy.His dj sets depend upon the reading of his dancefloor, the kind of club that he plays and even the time of the night that he plays but we can say that is a set full of energy with the best electro and funky house, progressing to a more strong dirty beat during the evening with a touch of class in betweens and a hand full of intense breaks that explode in pure harmony with the music, mind and body.
Ted also started to give his first steps in music production and we expect the fruits of it in a near future.
