Danijel Vidmar, known by his stage name DJ Danny Black, discovered the club scene as a teenager, which sparked his passion for music and led him to consider becoming a DJ. He began seriously pursuing DJing in 2008, performing at various clubs, beach bars, and events while developing and refining his unique style.
Although he personally favors house music, his sets incorporate influences from a variety of musical genres. Since he strives to connect with the crowd at every performance and transfer his signature energy to them, his sets are never pre-planned but created in the moment. His biggest source of inspiration is the audience’s positive reaction, and he selects his music based on his emotions in the moment.
DJ Danny Black has had the opportunity to perform at major events and venues, including ULTRA Europe in Split, WMC Zagreb Hypo Expo, Kalypso Club in Zrće, Aquarius in Zagreb, Club Pink Champagne and SEVEN in Hvar, Club 305 A.D. in Split, and the iconic Revelin in Dubrovnik. He has also shared the stage with notable artists such as Jay Lumen, Marko Nastić, Ferreck Dawn, Kiko Franco, and Matroda.
For INSITE’s guest mix series, Danny Black has prepared a dynamic set featuring a progressive techno sound – melodic with some darker elements. You can listen to it on our newly launched YouTube channel or on our SoundCloud:
INSITE: If you could grab a drink with any DJ/producer, who would it be?
DANNY BLACK: Carl Cox, because he’s one of the most charming DJs in the business. He has been in the business for over 30 years. His parties are always full and the music gets better and better every time. Man is an institution.
