DJ & Music Producer
DJ & Music Producer
Gold Griffin is an artist and DJ from New York City, currently based in Dubai, UAE. Since he was a child, he has been active as a musician, constantly exploring his interest in instruments, songwriting, and innovative methods of creation. As a teenager, he assumed the role of a DJ at house parties with his friends, and his passion for the craft only grew and developed alongside his local reputation. While working in recording studios around the city, he developed his skills for digital production while producing for various local artists. His loved for dance music especially bloomed when he began to visit clubs around New York City, which drove him to move in order to pursue a bigger vision for his music career.
While living in New York City, Gold Griffin performed at a number of venues, clubs, and parties across Manhattan and Brooklyn, including Musica, Public Nightclub, rooftops, corporate events for major brands like Volvo and Porsche, and private events. Most notably, he opened for tech house super star Tita Lau, a pinnacle achievement for him at that time.
Eventually, he had a desire to expand his horizons even further, and after a trip, decided to relocate to Dubai in 2025, where he currently stays. Since then, he has performed at the Taj Downtown, Sofitel, Atlantis the Royal, Ritz Carlton, multiple yacht parties, corporate activations, and private events. In November of 2025, he was the DJ for Terrence & Mikalah Jenkins' wedding and afterparty alongside internationally acclaimed DJ Jae Murphy, which was featured in People Magazine with celebrity attendees such as American rapper Future, world-renowned entertainer TI, social media star AdamW, and many others, and was personally commended by Terrence.
With roots in performance and a lifetime of musical experience, and over 10 years behind the decks as a DJ, his approach is deliberate and intentional. Calling to his origins in Hip Hop and R&B, his specialty sound is worldly house mixed with ethnic and tech styles, woven together with a sense of pace, mood, and movement that turns a set into something shared across cultures. His open format selection is catered to the taste of audience in front of him to keep them engaged and energetic, applying his skills developed from years of throwing parties and reading the crowd. It’s not only about keeping people moving; it’s about building something special that people can feel, and creating memories that live beyond the event.
