Biography:
BlackCoffee began his DJ career back in 1994 while still in High School. He
started by playing in the events, playing for free. While studying Music in
Natal Technikon, he quietly developed his skill and searched KZN and Gauteng for
the hottest music.
He was busy doing this in conjunction with his band/music career. BlackCoffee
belongs to a music group called SHANA that has grown from strength to strength
in the past yearsthey have four CD's under their name. He's juggling both
professions, being a DJ and being a full-time musician. In 2001 when he decided
to leave his home ground and join the buzz of Gauteng, he was offered an
opportunity to freelance for various clubs and promoters until securing a
residency at Voodoo Lounge nightclub-the most happening club of it's time. He
was chosen as one of 2 South African participants in the Red Bull Music Academy
in 2003 which jumpstarted him into the South African DJ scene. Early 2004
BlackCoffee was tracked down by SAB Miller local promoters and MO's Lounge owner
and soon became resident for him at his Mo's Lounge club in Norwood. In 2002/3
he was given the prime weekend dance slot on Umhlobo Wenene (Saturday's 8-10).
To date, this has been the show featuring the most international DJ's on South
African radio. He has featured since at various clubs- Club 115, Tilt(Durban),
Club Hear(Port Elizabeth), WhoZoo, Pop Art(Durban), Carnalita, Voodoo
Lounge(Cape Town), Times 4, Sutra(Cape Town) etc. However, BlackCoffee's talent
has taken him over the lines into the scene making him a DJ and a producer that
has put together a compilation CD. The CD is due for release end of September
2005. From JHB to Durban and everywhere between, BlackCoffee has been there and
rocked the masses.
