Over the past decade, the name DJ Yan has become synonymous with House music in Philadelphia. While seducing the club goers with his hypnotic baseline and heart pounding beats, Yan has established himself as one of the best and most in demand DJs around.
Born in Kiev Ukraine, Yan first gained exposure to music through his family. From an early age, they instilled in him a love of music and nourished his talent. Upon immigrating to the US in his early teens, Yan began going to clubs and parties where he was exposed to the great sounds of influential DJ’s like: Rob Lee, Robbie Tronco, Josh Wink, Paul Van Dyke, and many others. Inspired by what he saw and heard, Yan set out to make his own mark on the dance-music scene.
Since solidifying his name and reputation in Philly, DJ Yan has traveled all over the US, playing alongside industry greats like Tiesto, Judge Jules, Josh Wink, Danny Tenaglia, Chus & Ceballos, Boris, Robbie Tronco, Richie Santana, Peter Bailey, Oscar G, John Creamer, Jonathan Peters, John Aquaviva, Robbie Rivera, Donald Glaude, KGBeats and many more. Anyone who has experienced his sets first hand will tell you that it’s DJ Yan’s ability to read the crowd that truly sets him apart. Every electrifying set sends the crowd into an explosive uproar wanting more.
Most recently, Yan has channeled his vision and creativity into introducing the experience that is “Massive Dynamik”. Taking his talent to another level, Massive Dynamik is the new project that includes his studio partner Alex M. This is an act which features live samples over drum processions. The idea is to give the crowd a sample of what they do in the studio and raise the bar of the sound that is coming out the speakers. Every show is different because the production is being done right in front of your eyes. These shows have had great reviews and are becoming more in demand on weekly bases.
