From London to Larnaca

By Maria Gregoriou

Larnaca will truly be jumping to the sounds of DJ Danny Howells on Saturday. Howells, who will be coming all the way from London, doesn’t really fit into a specific kind of music genre because he has a musical style very much all of his own. With his passion for a number of styles, he has managed to create a unique, electric sound that has firmly established him as one of the most sought after DJs in the world… and he is on his way here.

Howells has been rocking the DJ music scene for over 20 years and has a hectic touring schedule that gets him travelling all around the world, and seen him hold residencies at places like Arc, Ministry of Sound, Twilo, Renaissance, The End, and Bedrock.

A back catalogue of well received mix albums brought him to compile acclaimed mixes for the music label Global Underground, a CD for Azuli Records, albums for the music label Renaissance, as well as three volumes of his own Nocturnal Frequencies series.

The list of his successes as a DJ and producer goes on and on, but there is nothing like getting out there on the dance floor and experiencing the sounds for yourself.

It was established in 1945 and today, with its popular and widely-read website, the Cyprus Mail is among the most trusted news sites in Cyprus. The newspaper is not affiliated with any political parties and has always striven to maintain its independence. Over the past 70-plus years, the Cyprus Mail, with a small dedicated team, has covered momentous events in Cyprus’ modern history, chronicling the last gasps of British colonial rule, Cyprus’ truncated independence, the coup and Turkish invasion, and the decades of negotiations to stitch the divided island back together, plus a myriad of scandals, murders, and human interests stories that capture the island and its -people. Observers describe it as politically conservative.
