ABOUT
Welcome to my website! I’m DaniCW (aka Daniel Calvo-Westcott), a DJ and producer based in Bournemouth. I’m thrilled you’ve stopped by to explore my music and journey. As a self-made artist, I’ve been fortunate to gain incredible support from several influential figures in the music industry. My passion for DJing laid the foundation for my production skills, leading me to perform at numerous festivals and clubs throughout Europe including Bournemouth 7’s, EHM Events, Sakura, Qube, Bar One, and many more.
My sound is characterised by uplifting pianos and catchy vocal hooks, creating tracks that radiate feel-good energy. With over 2 million streams across all digital platforms, my music has resonated with both club-goers and radio listeners. I’m proud to have released high-quality music on major labels such as Good Company, Love & Other, Sinister Sounds, and Solotoko. Supported by Spotify and Apple Music, my tracks continue to reach new audiences, and 2024 promises even greater things.
I’ve been fortunate to have my music featured on major radio stations like BBC Radio One, Kiss FM, and Capital Dance, and even on the popular TV show Celebs Go Dating. It’s incredibly humbling to receive support from fans and some of the biggest names in Dance Music, including Scott Mills, Judge Jules, Ben Malone, Bingo Players, Mike Williams, and Hardwell. Thank you for visiting my site. I hope you love the music as much as I love creating it. Stay tuned for more exciting projects and releases!

If you’re interested in the services I provide, I’d love to hear from you! Whether you’re looking for fresh production, ghost production, or just need that extra sparkle in your tracks, I’m here to help. Feel free to reach out via email or fill out the contact form below. Let’s create something amazing together!
1. Do you work with international clients?
Absolutely! I work with clients from all over the world. Whether you’re an artist, DJ, or label, distance is never an issue. We’ll use online tools like Zoom, Google Meet, and email to ensure smooth communication and collaboration.
2. What genres do you specialise in?
While I specialize in electronic dance music (EDM), pop, and cinematic music, I’m always open to working on other genres. I enjoy pushing creative boundaries and adapting to the unique needs of every client.
3. How do I book your services?
It’s simple! You can contact me directly through my website or email me at info@danicw.co.uk. Once we connect, we’ll discuss your project in detail. I’ll then provide you with a timeline, quote, and a plan to bring your vision to life.
4. Do you offer revisions?
Yes, I do. I include up to two free revisions with every project to ensure you’re happy with the final result. If more revisions are needed, I’m happy to accommodate them for a small additional fee.
5. How long does it take to complete a project?
This really depends on the scope of the project. For example, mixing and mastering can take a few days, while custom music production or a remix may take a couple of weeks. I’ll provide a clear timeline once I know more about your specific needs.
6. Can you help with branding or marketing for my music?
Yes, I can. Beyond production, I offer consultation and guidance on branding, marketing, and music promotion strategies to help your work stand out in the industry.
7. What’s your payment process?
I require a 50% deposit upfront to secure the project and the remaining balance upon completion. Payments can be made via bank transfer or PayPal. Don’t worry – everything is clearly outlined in the contract we’ll sign before starting.
8. Can I get my project done on a tight deadline?
If you have an urgent project, let me know! I’ll do my best to prioritise your work, although rush fees may apply depending on the turnaround time required.
9. Do you retain any rights to the music you produce?
This depends on the agreement we have in place. Typically, I offer a full buyout so you retain complete rights to your track. However, if it’s a collaborative effort, we’ll discuss royalties or shared rights in advance.
10. How will I receive the final files?
Once the project is complete, I’ll deliver the files electronically via a secure link. This can be through Dropbox, Google Drive, or another preferred platform. Files will include WAV and MP3 formats unless otherwise requested.
11. What tools and software do you use?
I primarily use industry-standard tools like Ableton Live, and a suite of top-notch plugins from Waves, FabFilter, Plugin Alliance and hardware. Every project is crafted with the best tools to ensure professional-grade quality.
12. Can I see examples of your past work?
Of course! You can check out my portfolio on my website, where I’ve showcased some of my previous projects. If you’d like more specific examples, feel free to ask, and I can share additional tracks or references.
13. Do you offer lessons or mentorship?
Yes, I do. If you’re interested in improving your production skills or learning about the music industry, I offer one-on-one mentorship sessions tailored to your goals.
14. Do you work with labels, or is this only for individual artists?
I work with both labels and individual artists. Whether you’re an independent creator or part of a label, I’m here to help you achieve your musical vision.
15. Can I hire you to create a custom remix?
Absolutely! I love remixing tracks and giving them a fresh new vibe. Let me know your ideas, and we’ll collaborate to bring them to life.
16. Can you handle large-scale projects, like an album?
Yes, I can. I’ve worked on multi-track projects, EPs, and albums. If you’re planning something big, let’s discuss the details, and I’ll map out a timeline and process for delivering everything seamlessly.
