While Avila was busy wowing the crowds in Ibiza, on the other side of the Atlantic, the powers that be were also paying attention. Stateside broadcasting behemoth SiriusXM, the largest purveyor of dance music on the North American continent, snapped up the teenager’s ‘Ready To Jump’ show without a moment’s hesitation, making him the youngest EVER prime-time resident to grace the airwaves – and this before Avila had even dropped a single beat on American soil. Since September 2012 Danny has graced the decks of North America’s biggest festivals and most legendary dance floors, with huge sets at Coachella, Ultra Music Festival (Main Stage), EDC Vegas, Chicago and New York and Beyond Wonderland to the show-stopping Generation Wild Tour which saw him team up with fellow upstarts Deniz Koyu, Mikael Weermets, dBerrie and celebrity bad-boy photographer Kirillwashere to take the Eastern half of America and Canada by absolute storm. Miami, New York, Montreal, Washington DC, Ottawa, Boston, Atlantic City, Albany, Madison, Pittsburgh, Philadephia, Syracuse, Toronto and more fell under the spell of the undeniably talented teenager with fans increasingly clamouring for more.
Add to the whole concoction his debut production ‘Breaking Your Fall’ which was released on Big Beat Records, his first official remix for Skylar Grey’s ‘C’mon Let Me Ride’ on Interscope Records, his first official compilation album for none of than the mighty Ministry Of Sound Records and upcoming track ‘Voltage’ on Dutch powerhouse Spinnin’ Records and you begin to see the trust and faith that the music industry is laying at the feet of Danny Avila. With his international presence growing day by day, his Ready To Jump show now looks set to broadcast his sound to some of the world’s most prestigious radio stations and to the ears of millions of eager fans.
Oh – and if all that wasn’t enough, he’s not only spear heading the next generation of superstar DJ/producers – he’s also pretty damn prolific when it comes to anything concerning a board. Verging on pro skate- and snowboarder status, Avila’s also notched up 2nd in the Spanish Wakeboard Championships, 7th in the European Wakeboard Championships and 12th in the World Wakeboard Championships – as ever proving that he’s ready to jump no matter what the medium!
There is, it seems, absolutely no stopping Danny Avila at whatever he turns his hand to. The future beckons, and it’s practically blinding.
