All our thoughts

Goodgreef and PFA team

For those of you who are unfamilar with Barry Connell, he was the current resident DJ for Inside Out and Goodgreef. Judge Jules had also recently featured Barry on his April 19th Essential Mix as Scotlands up and coming DJ and producer.

DanceNode would like to take this time to express their sadness at the loss of one of Scotland brightest young DJs.
