Biography

Dave has been on the scene just under two years and has been listening to Dance music for around ten years, his love for House music really started after visiting the madness that is Ibiza twice and then further realised how much more House music means to him.

Dave then branched into Nottingham's scene in 2005 after throwing himself into the deep end of Dj-ing the year before. He immediately purchased two Technics 1210 MK2's and a Pioneer mixer in 2004 and then mixed constantly for about six months. After mixing himself into a frenzy, he felt he needed to know more about Dance Music as a whole. So he then enrolled himself on a DJ course at his local college, which opened his eyes to a lot of things that are vital in becoming a successful DJ. The next few months would be one of the most interesting parts of Dave's DJ carer, he managed to start a good friendship with the likes of another local DJ, Andy Bunney. With having the same goals and ideas in place Dave and Andy decided that they would put on a brand new club night in the area, the night that was created was called Touch™ www.touchclubbing.com which began at The Lost Weekend in February, 2006.

Touch™ has grown so much over the past months gaining residencies at various bars and clubs in Nottingham (Bluu Bar, Image Bar, Saltwater, Tonic & Stealth Nightclub) and also aquiring future nights in Derby and Leicester. It is fast becoming a core brand in the rapid, ever growing House music scene.

The past few months has also been the busiest time for Dave as a DJ and a Promoter, with putting on Touch club nights in and around the midlands and creating new spin off night from the Touch™ brand (Housedegree in Nottingham), playing along side some of the most rated and respected artists in the Dj world (Soul central, Lenny Fontana, Paul Farris, Audiowhores, Deepgroove, Steve Porter, Kid Massive, Soulbasics, Danny Lewis, Euan Mitchell & Dom Navarra) to name a few. Relentless work and promotion has helped Dave gain two new residencies with Saltwater & Tonic in Nottingham. Dave is also a big player in the ever popular Online Radio movement, starting at stations like :- Soul connection FM, Warrior FM, Mix The groove and now at his current Online Radio residency with Soul Satellite www.soul-satellite.com.

Dave Cross has proved to have what it takes to succeed in this industry. His ambitious and charismatic personality has played an important role in elevating his status. This has led him to win crowds over with his DAZZLING music selection.
