Part two of Dans mix in Spain..never disapointing, Dan Huda Hudia has long since been revered as Fla's Breaks crown prince! Huda Hudia began his career in 1990, at the tender age of seventeen. Huda Hudia's musical style has influenced many people in the "scene" over the last 13 years of his career. Huda Hudia is known for his astonishing ability to pick out records with a multitude of different music styles; music styles that excite the masses of die hard underground enthusiasts.


 After graduating from high school, Huda Hudia continued DJing while attending the University of South Florida. During his tenure at the University, he had local residencies at The Groove, Eden, and The Masquerade, all located in Tampa. He has also headlined in parties all across America and Canada. After graduating from USF, Huda Hudia had to choose between a professional career in DJing or a career within the marketing field. Huda Hudia says it was not hard to decide. He explains, "I would rather be doing what I truly love and enjoy, rather than have to put on a suit every morning and go to work. The idea was that if DJing didn't work out, I would still have my degree to fall back on." Well, there are a lot of us who are happy he decided to stick with his dreams.


The style and blend of music Huda Hudia has brought to the underground Florida dance scene was recognized by the Weekly Planet (a Tampa Bay area newspaper), when he was voted the city's Best DJ in 1996. The article goes on to read, "Back in the good old days when dancers partied all night and sobered up in time for lunch, DJs were Tampa's superstars. They had their own followings- devoted fans worshipping the sounds and the feelings of the party. If they were the kings of nightlife, then his majesty Huda Hudia reigned superior with an unbelievable ability to spin explosive sounds at clubs like the Masquerade. Pacifier-sucking kids would line up for blocks to get a piece of blown-up techno action. Like a conductor directing an orchestra of ravers, Huda Hudia spread the energy on thick and the crowd responded wildly with screams and whistles." Quite an article!!!


In early 1997, Huda Hudia decided to branch out from DJing and formed the label Kaleidoscope Music. His label has met with instant success with the release of four hit records, three of which were produced by "Junior Camp," a music group of which Huda Hudia is the creator and founder. Huda Hudia's three hit records include, Blazing Piano's, The Rhythm EP and Clap Your Hands. Huda Hudia's last release Clap Your Hands (Junior Camp), licensed to Tripoli Trax, UK, debuted at #7 in the UK National Charts and is featured on the latest Ministry of Sound Compilation CD Mixed by Pete Tong and Boy George (Released: Kaleidoscope USA, Tripoli Trax, UK). Huda Hudia has also produced remixes for The Cotton Club's hit single New Jack (Adrenaline Records), Atnarko Bear's single Tunnel Vision (DB Records), and 43's single "How the bass kiks" (Kaleidoscope Records). Huda Hudia's remix of the hit song I'll House You by the Jungle Brothers was released by South Florida's hit sensation Toxik Twins (a compilation of DJ Hardware and DJ Remix), on August 1st under the Warlock and Aureaus Records' label, New York. On August 29, 1998, Billboard Magazine rated it number 1 for Hot Dance Breakouts for Maxi-singles sales. Titles listed in this section of Billboard have future chart potential, based on club play or sales reported. Huda Hudia did not hit legendary status until the releases of "C'mon Breakdown" and "Drop the Bass Now." Combined, these releases sold more that 14,000 units worldwide. "C'mon Breakdown" sold and astonishing 7,500 units and "Drop the Bass Now" sold 6,500 units. Today Huda Hudia continues to break new ground with his endless amounts of releases.
