New York City is rightfully known for its eccentric and vibrant nightlife scene. Among the many talents behind the thriving club culture in the city that never sleeps is Dan Campos. Dan was born in Lima, Peru, on the 31st of December in 1987. Even as a young dreamer, Dan has always been surrounded by music thanks to his parents. He started making his mixes through Sony Acid Pro 4.0 until a well-known DJ encouraged him to continue making them on a computer on GetMyRemix.com. At 18, the musical visionary finally left his home in Peru and flew to the United States to make his mark in the industry. After just two years, Dan was able to launch his career as a disk jockey.
Despite the support he received from his friends, Dan, now more commonly known as DJ Fiuger, also went through his share of struggles as he was starting. In the first few weeks, DJ Fiuger had to choose between his regular job, which was paying his bills then, and his DJ career. Driven by his passion for his craft, DJ Fiuger took a risk and started working on his music career full-time.
Eventually, the talented musician’s sacrifices paid off. DJ Fiuger first started playing his music in Norwalk, Stamford, and New Haven in Connecticut. Despite lacking knowledge of popular Latin American music such as bachata, salsa, and merengue, DJ Fiuger wanted to pay homage to his heritage through his music. He started playing a blend of house music and disco with Latin music. DJ Fiuger entered the Latin world by working on various genres, from Reggaeton Moombah to American and European rhythms like Hip-hop, Top 40 & House Music. As a DJ Producer, DJ Fiuger has also worked on many remix sites, including Getmyremix, latinremixkings and prolatinremix.
While DJing in Connecticut, DJ Fiuger met a promoter who gave the brilliant music artist the once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to play at a club in New York. Since then, DJ Fiuger has been setting off the vibes, not just in the United States but around the world. The musically gifted artist is proud of the hard work he puts into hours of practice at clubs, as seeing the crowd happy with his mixes makes all the effort worthwhile. DJ Fiuger also had the chance to work with the most popular stations in New York, such as Power 102.9 FM and Power 800 AM in Massachusetts.
Through his humility and determination to fulfill his dreams, DJ Fiuger has showcased his remarkable talent in front of more than 10,000 people at concerts and festivals in Prudential Center, Madison Square Garden, Six Flags, Sony Hall, and many more. The musician has been collaborating with many other talented artists in the industry and traveling to many countries like Guatemala, Spain, and Italy to play his creative mixes. In 2013, he was nominated for Latin Mixx DJ Choice Awards 2013 in New York and gained recognition at the Peruvian Awards in 2018 for his work as a Peruvian DJ in many other countries. With the many achievements he’s gained throughout his career, DJ Fiuger is grateful to do his passion for a living – truly, he is a testament that nothing can stand in the way of your dreams.
