Biography

Internet, radio, and nightclub DJ, event promoter, record label owner and artist mentor, Geoff Wright aka DJ Presha’s list of accomplishments and roles within the music industry are immense. Even more impressive is that within New Zealand he has been a forerunner in each of these disciplines, firmly entrenching himself within the sonic architecture of one of the strongest bastions of drum and bass culture worldwide.

Through his Samurai Music / Samurai Red Seal record labels, his many radio shows over the years, and events promotion companies, Presha has served as a guiding hand in the growth and development of the New Zealand scene and has assisted heavily in establishing the International export of artists such as State of Mind, Trei, Dose, Tokyo Prose and Bulletproof amongst others.

2011 has seen an indefinite relocation to Europe for Presha, a move essential to the growth and longevity of both the Samurai Music labels and his devotion to the art of Drum and Bass DJing. This year will be the busiest year to date for the Samurai Music group with many high profile releases from the artist stable including Calibre, Klute, Dose, Nymfo, ASC, Tokyo Prose, and many more. And with it, the newly established Samurai Music podcasts will be a direct link to DJ Presha's unique musical vision.

Ex-speed metal vocalist, old-school skateboarding aficionado, Japanese art enthusiast and lifelong cross- genre music lover, Presha has DJed extensively across New Zealand, Australia, Europe, Japan and America alongside top International drum and bass talent such as Klute, Calibre, Marcus Intalex, Doc Scott, and more recently for A Bunch Of Cuts & Soulu:tion. With every set, Presha brings a wealth of maturity and experience to his selections, ultimately reflecting the highs and lows of a life lived on the frontlines of music.
