Danny Avila

Madrid’s Danny Avila spins and produces a wide range of big room dance sounds, including electro-house, trance, and trap. Originally from Marbella, he started DJ’ing at the age of 12 and producing soon after. He moved to Madrid in order to become a DJ, and began spinning in the city’s clubs before he was old enough to be admitted into them. His DJ skills and youthful energy caught the attention of superstar DJ Tiësto, who invited Avila to share the stage with him at Pacha Ibiza. Soon after, Avila began touring across the world with Tiësto and Calvin Harris, in addition to appearing at countless major EDM festivals. DJ Magazine included Avila’s Big Room Mix CD with its September 2012 issue, making him the youngest artist to record a mix CD for the publication. He released a series of singles for labels like Big Beat Records, Spinnin' Records, and Dim Mak, as well as mixing the second disc of the 2013 double CD Ibiza Calling. Residencies in Barcelona and Las Vegas followed, as Avila frequently produced episodes of his Ready to Jump podcast series. Successful remixes for tracks by Gavin James and Tiësto were released in 2017, as well as “LOCO,” a collaboration with Nervo. ~ Paul Simpson
