DJ & MC PROFILE – AAZA
DJ Azza’s love of sharing amazing music and directing good times has seen him nominated for Best DJ at the WA Music Awards, a judge at Perth’s biggest DJ comps, and an in-demand DJ at Perth’s best venues, events and festivals.

A multi-WA Music Awards winner of Best Media Individual for his music journalism, holding the record as the youngest media Lecturer/Course Coordinator at Murdoch University, broadcasting on radio for over 15 years (including currently hosting and coordinating programs on RTRFM and previous segment presenter on ABC Perth Drive, triple j with Richard Kingsmill, Nova and more) and manager of award-winning bands under his Media business, DJ Azza’s is quite simply obsessed with music.

This extends to DJ-ing, his skills and extensive knowledge seeing him a fave at an extremely diverse range of venues, including holding down residencies at Long Chim, Northbridge Brewing Club, The Trustee’s Angel’s Cut, Flying Scotsman, Rosemount Hotel, Joe’s Juice Joint, The Peach Pit, and more. Whether playing to younger crowds at contemporary music-focused faves such as Southbound, Cuban Club, Seriously Sound System, Stereosonic and Future Music Festival, or more mixed crowd and lifestyle events such as Perth International Arts Festival, AGWA Nights (Art Gallery of Western Australia), Taste Of Perth, BeauVine Festival, Rottofest, Northbridge Festival, A Day On The Green and Fringe World, Aarom takes on all events with passion, professionalism and panache. He’s also toured to the UK, China and
across Australia.

But enough hype, he’s really just in it for his love of making people happy. From laying down diverse sets covering indie, classics, soul, funk, jazz, hip hop and beats at many of the 5-hour residencies he holds, to driving dancefloor house and disco nightclub sets, or helping design the perfect soundtrack for all tastes at weddings and functions, good times are always guaranteed. Oh, and he’s also a damn entertaining, professional and informative emcee to boot!
