Brendan Clay

Brendan Clay’s interest of dance music began in his early teens, immediately finding himself unsatisfied as simply a consumer of the music he loved, and explored for something new and more involved. Since making his club debut at ‘Thursday Delights’ at the Icebox - a popular trance and hard dance event - Brendan has played right across Sydney, including appearances at Sounds on Sunday, S*A*S*H, Chinese Laundry, Plastic, The Burdekin and Candy’s Apartment, as well as larger-scale events such as Big Day Out and Harbour Party NYE. Putting on the promoter hat, Brendan also plays at his out events, SPOiLT, Sequential and more recently, Crane Fridays - hosted every week in Potts Point. For ten years, Brendan was heavily involved with Internet radio, hosting successful programs, Friday Night Live and The M Shift, on Indiesoundz and NSB Radio networks, respectively. The M Shift, which ran for six years, specialised in breaks, house and drum ‘n’ bass, and was enjoyed regularly by thousands of live listeners, downloaders, and Podcasters alike. He now craves the sounds of deeper house and nu disco – and occasionally dabbles in drum ‘n’ bass. Brendan prides himself on playing a good warm-up set, absolute cleanliness in the mix and the introduction of innovative elements into his mixing, and production.
