David Pannell
With almost three decades’ experience in the industry, Brighton-based DJ/producer David Pannell is equally at home in the studio as he is behind the decks. Over the years, David has enjoyed residencies at the best of Brighton’s bars and clubs: The Zap, Digital, The Ocean Rooms, The Escape, The Funky Buddha, OhSo Social and more recently Merkabar have all played host to David’s unique blend of quality House Music. David has also taken his sound to countries as far afield as South Africa, Greece, Poland and Peru.
David can arrange a soundtrack that takes in anything from soulful, funky uplifting baselines to deep, melodic Balearic beats. An extensive library covering quality dance music from the days of disco to the present day means classics are also a speciality of his too. His background as a producer means his mixes are always carefully thought out, musical and often unique, taking in his own home-made edits, remixes and productions.
As a producer, David’s work has featured on many labels, including Loaded, Nukleuz, Silver Planet and Bush and he has remixed for The DMC and Virgin. His productions and mixes have featured on Radio 1 FM, Ministry of Sound Radio and worldwide via Internet radio. One of his compositions was featured on CBS Television’s Primetime TV Show, CSI (Crime Scene Investigation). Recently, David has worked closely with Brighton based electronic group Goloka, playing live sets with them and also remixing their productions. He’ll also be taking up a new Saturday night residency ZAPPY DAYS with local Mayor DJ Mikee Hollywood at The Walrus Under Belly from September.
