DJ FLY discovers turntables and starts scratching at the age of 15, in
1998. From an after-school hobby, it turns into a real passion and
finally his profession.
First influenced by Hip Hop, with an
affinity for Soul Music, Rock, and Electro, DJ FLY’s original sets
smoothly integrate tracks from artists such
as “Busta Rhymes” to “Chase And Status”.
Born in Lyon, DJ FLY starts his career in Rhône- Alpes’ clubs and it’s a big success! His technical
ease behind turntables and his communicative energy move everyone to the dancefloor!
Wishing to share his passion for music with friends, he creates the “Scratch Bandits Crew”, a group of DJs from Lyon, using scratch as a rhythmic
and harmonic way to recreate original composiitions like a real group of musicians.
It’s now time for a new challenge. DJ FLY enters the DJ competitions and wins 6 DMC France cups, a title of France DMC Champion, a bronze medal at the DMC World Championship in 2007 and at last the most desired title ever for a dj becoming the DMC World Champion in 2008!
Then, he becomes a trainer at the most famous dj school in France : UCPA-AMS between 2008 and 2009.
His talent takes him beyond the borders of his hometown, DJ FLY conquers France and abroad with the same success! He appears in events that attract crowds as:
L’Original Festival (Lyon), Les Nuits Sonores (Lyon), NRJ Tour (Tahiti)...
He also performs in Asia (Shanghaï, Hong Kong, Shenzhen, Macau...), Europe & North America.
In cities as Paris, London, Montréal, Dubaï...Alongside artists such as :
Method Man, Redman, Mobb Deep, Raekwon, Nas, Akon...
Qbert, Grand Master Flash, A-Track, Tony Touch, Dee Nasty, Crazy-B, Birdy Nam Nam, C2C... To name a few!
Always looking for new projects, in 2004 DJ FLY collaborates with the label ENTERPRISE which is several times awarded for many french artists productions.
In 2011 he becomes a full beatmaker, working on his first album “TAKE OFF” and performs live for the first time ever!
In 2013 dj sly wins the 2013 dmc contest.
