Background Data
Bon
Finix's progressive
headquarters are based in the heart of Europe, in a magic city codenamed
Prague. A thorough background check of his personal electronic files
revealed that he is an European citizen with Cypriot and Czech roots, born
just before the 80s rolled in.Initial contact with DJ/EDM
Bon's first ever contact with the exciting world of DJing came in the form of radio DJ controller in 1996AD. The new millennium came to reveal the concept of the electronic dance music scene and quickly molded Bon Finix into another youngster obsessed with mixing up beats pressed on 12" wax plates.
The 1st steps
From the very beginning Bon wanted to be a progressive DJ. Therefore at first he experimented with Progressive House, but quickly realized that there were sounds out there that had an even more progressive edge. At that point his attention was grabbed by a new emerging style dubbed Wet & Hard. Influenced by two of the pioneers of this movement, Corvin Dalek and Michael Burian, he constantly kept searching for fresh exciting sounds.
Current Direction
Equipped with the trait of open-mindedness, Bon Finix has explored various sub-sections of the electronic dance spectrum. At the current stage of his career, he is capable of serving up sets on two different levels:
Level A>
Energetic House spiced up with Tribal and Electro sounds.
Level B>
Progressive beats occasionally overflowing into Trance territory.
In many cases Bon will incorporate Level B elements
into his Level A sets, and vice versa. His experience has shown that combining
various styles into sets, subsequently creates a more colorful and
interesting experience, which is received positively by the modern-age
clubber. In order to satisfy forward-thinking club-goers, there is a need
for such progressive generation DJs.
Encounters
Bon's flexibility and capability
to adjust his sets according to venue size and crowd response makes him a
valuable DJ for a whole range of spots that pump out electronic dance
music. Over the years he has spun his vinyl at clubs of various sizes,
boat parties out at sea, open air events, late-night after-clubs,
beach-front bars, and once in a newly-built film studio. He has had the
honor to share a DJ-booth with internationally established DJs like Nick
Warren, Jazzy M, and Chris Cowie to name just a few.
Twothousandandfour
The year 2004 secured Bon Finix a
residency at Prague's renowned House club Mecca, offered him the
after-hour madness of DJing as a resident at Studio 54's afterparties, and
gave him his first ever festie gig - none other than Creamfields 2004 in
the Czech Republic. Other highlights include his guest appearances at the
infamous parties Visage and Mixer in Prague's legendary club Roxy, as well
as, an unforgettable boat party off the shores of Cyprus, alongside Get
Fucked loony Nathan Coles. Also, worth noting is Bon's success
in the Czech Dance Awards 2004, in which he landed a top 10 position in
the category "Newcomer of the Year."
+1 = 2005
Two new residencies are added in 2005; at infamous after hours spot Le Clan and his first out-of-Prague residency, at Liquid club in Liberec. As one of Mecca's main resident DJs, Bon Finix represents the club abroad on a mini-tour visiting prestigious clubs Passage in Austria and BarRouge in Switzerland.
Another year, another step forward
