I'd like to meet:

Chris Oakes is an up and coming DJ from Sydney, having been pleasing crowds across Sydney for nearly a year now. Despite being relatively new to the scene, he has played at some of sydney finest venues such as Moulin Rouge, Soho, Arthouse, Nevermind, as well supporting the Ministry of Sound Tour in Sydney, and frequently playing at Sydney hot spot YU. Unlike most up and comers in Sydney, Oakes has a keen eye as to what the crowd wants to hear, rather than just pumping out tunes for himself. His style revolves around his strong knowledge of traditional house music, as well as some prog and tech, always eager to learn Oakes is often on the lookout for groundbreaking new music, as well as picking up on techniques to help his djing. His influences range from Fatboy Slim to Daft Punk, and Tim Deluxe to Bob Sinclair, also finding inspiration with the local sydney Dj scene, with such artists as Matt Nukewood, Brendan Fing and Ben Morris.
