My name is Nana Blade. I started Dj'ing in London in 1996. I began my career on the Kings Road at The Ink Bar and I was soon playing in various venues including The Buddha Bar, Venom/Zoo Bar - Leicester Square, On Anon - Piccadilly Circus, Tiger Tiger - Central London, Navajo Joe's - Covent Garden and SIN night (Service Industry Night) at Break for the Border on Tottenham Court Rd. Having worked in some of the biggest clubs in London such as Ministry of Sound, Brixton Academy, The Fridge, The Scala, The Rocket and The Glasshouse, my career has taken me around the world to places like Guadeloupe (French West indies), South Africa, Singapore, Australia, Egypt, Czech Republic amongst others.
On my return to Australia in 2003 I gained residencies at Bungalow 8 and George's, both on King Street Wharf Sydney. I also took up residency at The Soda Bar above The Golden Sheaf Hotel in Double Bay. I have Dj'd guest spots at Kinsela's - Taylor's Square, The Columbian - Oxford Street (Mardi Gras after party), The Chambers Hotel - Martin Place, and also did a back to back set with Marshall Jefferson in Double Bay, Sydney.
After having a few years off from Dj'ing I decided that it was time to get back to what I loved doing the most. I joined South Coast Hip Hop outfit 'NINJA VANISH' as their Dj and manager and we most memorably supported Illy on his tour of the South Coast which was a huge honour.
I take great pride in my work and my reputation. It's all about you and your event. I like to consult extensively with my clients prior to an event to ensure we are on the 'same page' regarding the music required on the day. No ego's here! Just a desire to see you an your guests with a smile on your face and having a great time.
