Pumpin' US
house grooves, sometimes soulful and sometimes with a dirty
edge, from one of the emerging new talents on the London house
scene. Canadian-born Brad 212 Finlay has played
at nearly all of London's major venues and received praise from
clubbers and his fellow DJs alike. He currently holds a residency
with UP^^, playing regularly at Turnmills and Ministry of Sound.
Before that, he was a regular at City Loud at Turnmills and
warmed up for CJ Mackintosh, Joey Negro, Danny Rampling, DJ
Gregory, Bob Sinclair, Tim Deluxe and Lee-Cabrera, as well as
following Junior Jack & Kid Creme back in January. More
recently, Brad has joined the likes of Felix da Housecat and
Dmitri from Paris at Neighbourhood, and is a favourite at The
White House in south London.
On the international front Brad has also played at Supermarket
in Zurich, one of Switzerland's leading clubs, and on regular
trips back to his native Toronto can be found behind the decks.
With his production career slowly taking shape and a busy DJ
diary, Brad is one to watch.

WHAT HE SAYS...
"My style is always funky but it's chunky
and pumpin', ballsy if you like - it's main room, main set kind
of house. It's party music but with soulful undertones."
WHAT THEY SAY...
"Brad’s played a few times for me at Neighbourhood and
has always smashed it, a natural talent and definitely one of
the few younger DJs out there who will make it. Just don’t
feed him more than 5 double tequilas before he plays."
Nikki Gordon, Neighbourhood & Cherry Jam
“The Toronto-born DJ played the biggest set of his career
tonight and ripped the dancefloor to shreds with his mixing
skills taking full advantage of the third channel. Brad 212
Finlay has well and truly arrived, and he ain’t going
nowhere!’ He played a superb set and had the crowd in
the palm of his hand, unwillingly handing it all over to Tim
Deluxe.”
Luke Day, review of City Loud, UK-CL
"Brad has played at the White House on numerous occasions over
the last couple of years. He is a young DJ with bags of energy
and enthusiasm. What I find refreshing about him is that he
gets to the party early (well before his set), comes always
with a crew of friends, and he usually stays and parties afterwards
with all the punters wearing a big fat grin on his face..."
Yann Roberts, The Whitehouse
