Doorly [UK]

It’s been just a few years since Pete Tong touted Doorly as a future star, but not even the Radio 1 icon could have predicted just how rapid his ascent would be. As of 2016, he can already add two Essential Mixes, multiple Beatport and Traxsource No.1s, including a month-long stint at No.1 in the Beatport Chart with ‘Gravity Check’ (2016’s Biggest Selling Tech House Record on the site), production for Usher and Nicki Minaj, sharing the stage with The Prodigy & LCD Soundsystem, acclaimed releases on Cajual, Dirtybird and Hot Creations and studio collaborations with Green Velvet, Switch & Grandmaster Flash to his ever-growing list of achievements.

Doorly cut his teeth in his native Huddersfield, running his own after hours warehouse party and booking the likes Armand Van Helden, Fatboy Slim, Annie Mac, 2 Many DJs and eventually Pete Tong, who was so impressed by his ability behind the decks that he offered him a Live Radio 1 Essential Mix direct from the club. Following this seal of approval, Doorly’s gig schedule took on a life of its own, with DJing in Time Square New York, and every major festival plus touring regularly alongside Fatboy Slim & Soulwax just some of the highlights.

At the same time as touring, Doorly was working hard honing his craft in the studio, establishing himself as a versatile, in-demand producer. Remix work for an enviable list of A-list acts followed, with imaginative reworkings of tracks from Kanye West, The Prodigy, Claude Vonstroke, Groove Armada and Basement Jaxx setting Doorly on a different creative level to many of his peers.

In 2012 Doorly relocated to Los Angeles, California. From this base he launched a diverse array of his own parties, ranging from sunshine house and disco gatherings on the rooftops of Austin at SXSW & Miami with Skream and Jackmaster, to 2000 capacity ‘secret’ warehouse parties in Downtown LA. From humble beginnings, these Doorly & Friends Events have gone on to establish residencies at Ministry of Sound (London), AIR (Amsterdam), Sound (Los Angeles) and Canal Mills (Leeds), Space & Pikes Hotel (Ibiza), Sisyphos (Berlin) plus regular parties in Miami, San Francisco, Asia and across the world including a mansion party at Coachella at which Disclosure played after their main festival appearance.

In 2014 he achieved what he had been threatening to for some time, topping the Beatport overall chart with his Shadow Child collaboration ‘Piano Weapon’. In that same year, Doorly & Cajmere’s ‘The Way’ sat at No.1 overall on Traxsource and in the top 10 of the Beatport house chart for over a month, with his releases being hammered by the likes Maceo Plex, Jamie Jones, Seth Troxler, Skream, Jackmaster, Agoria & Annie Mac to name a few.

2015 alone saw Doorly releases on Cajual, Dirtybird, Moon Harbour, Toolroom and Hot Creations; an impressive list of labels that demonstrate the towering standards he sets himself, as well as the high regard his production are held in by many of the industry’s tastemakers.

Above all else however, Doorly is first and foremost a DJ, with his dedication to and passion for the craft apparent to everyone who sees him perform. Sets are played out across four CDJs & Vinyl plus drum machines, samplers and FX units, and he is a firm believer that a DJ set should be a live, unique experience. To that end, Doorly continues to work alongside Pioneer as one of its Pro-DJ Ambassadors and is directly involved with testing, design and training with Pioneer DJ equipment together with fellow craftsmen James Zabiela & Kink.

Also Doorly’s performance skills have now been enlisted by Dolby who are launching a new 5.1 surround sound club system which Doorly demonstrated at Ministry of Sound in May and will tour in Full worldwide as Dolbys ambassador in early 2017

2016 In Ibiza, Doorly maintained as unyielding a presence as ever during his 11th season living on the island including gigs at Pacha, Pikes Hotel, Ibiza Rocks and Space – for what was the legendary venue’s final season and Doorly Hosting the main room with his Doorly & Friends Brand as well as playing the final Closing Party – while Doorly & Friends went from strength to strength with takeover shows at Snowbombing Festival, Rainbow Warehouse Birmingham, Beatherder and various other worldwide Festivals in FIJI, North America and Australia.

On the production front, 2016 also progressed in impressive fashion. In February Doorly dropped his hugely anticipated remix of Carl Craig & Green Velvet’s ‘So What’, with that same month seeing the release of ‘Want Silver’, a collaboration with Zombie Disco Squad on David Squillace’s This & That imprint. Further production triumphs came in the shape of remixes for Claptone, a remix for Fatboy Slim’s alias “Mighty Dub Katz, an acclaimed three track EP ‘ Rabbit Hole’ on Cajual, ‘Neanderthal, A collaboration with House Legend Marshall Jefferson on Dirtybird records and a collaboration with Darius Syrossian ‘Gravity Check’ that sat atop the Beatport tech house chart for over a month and was Awarded the Biggest selling Tech House Record of 2016 on Beatport.

Doorly also released on Seth Troxler’s “Play It Say It” label with his hugely respected “Magic Room” Track.

Doorly Received further Acclaim in 2016 being Nominated for Best House DJ in Ibiza at the Ibiza DJ Awards and also Best House DJ in the Beatport Awards, As well as being in the Top 10 Selling Artists on Traxsource for his third year running.

The last 3 Months of 2016 saw Doorly Head all the way around the world on a mammoth tour that makes you tired just looking at it! The tour included a jam packed USA Solo headline tour followed by a 2nd tour of America as Support For Booka Shade on their “Movements” Live Tour. Then continuing on hitting Asia, Fiji, Australia (For his 3 week headline Tour), New zealand, Bali, Dubai and the notorious Holy Ship Cruise in the Carribean.

2017 is set to be Doorlys most prolific year today having just Launched his own Record label and Club Brand “Reptile Dysfunction.” The first Release “Tonga Peak Times” Featured vocals from the Legendary Mike Skinner of the Streets was a huge success on the Underground with support from Jamie Jones, Skream, Switch, Eats Everything to name a few. The label will showcase Doorlys weirder Leftfield Side and tracks that don’t quite fit on the labels he usually works with at Cajaul, Dirtybird & Hot Creations and be a breeding ground for his own label family of fresh new talent.
