The best DJ in the world at the moment, imho.

He plays a bit of everything from house, to prog to tech - but it's all groovy. Knows how to work a crowd, and usually has unique tracklists full of tracks most DJs don't touch. I can only hope he comes out here again soon.

Ditto everyone else, he plays a bit of everything and is very fun/energetic...no "boring" proggy stuff here either. Cool as shit guy as well. Can't wait to see him at WMC (I hope!)

hope for everyone who has replied to have him at your place soon! Stalker overhere is doing a good job the last time, nathan coles was there last month, and this is the 7th time Danny is comming overhere. That is why a 7 hour set

i liked danny before...but kinda failed to keep up with his musical doings in the past couple of years...
saw him 2 nights ago at emerald city in philly and OMFG!
it was awesome...he definitely ranks #1 with me...

it was amazing...hard, funky and he even got electro-ey...
the crowd was into it and once again, i danced my fucking face off...

that was one of the greatest sets i've ever heard

Howells is one of the best DJs in the world at the moment IMO.
His style is so eclectic and diverse....his sets incoporate everything from house, prog, electro, tech-house to techno....add to that the fact that he's such an entertaining and nice guy and how can you go wrong. I try to never miss an opportunity to see him play, especially if its an extended set.

During his set at B.E.D. at the WMC, I saw countless numbers of the world's top DJs rocking out to his set - how's that for a recommendation?

Danny Howells is definitely a dj's DJ...I've been fortunate to see him many times here in NY at his residency at ARC, and not only is he talented, but very approachable...

I went to MOS in Taipei last Friday night. Danny Howells was playing tech-house music and people were like crazy there. But I am curious about his headset. He didn't wear the "normal" headsets like every other djs. He held a microphone-like one-ear headphone in his left hand. At first, I thought he was going to say something before the set, but he held that microphone all the time even 2 or 3 songs after. Then I realized that is his headset. That's a weird headset. Anyone knows about it?

lollipop headphones

That is a quick reply. Thank you for the information.
I think my dj friends would be insterested in these lollipops.

lmfao that's exactly what I was thinking the first time I saw him using it.

Anyone know the advantages of it, why he uses it, etc?

Anyways, I love his 24:7 album. So sexy, yet soothing. I've danced to it, and I've fell asleep to it.

Quality.
