Super excited to be back in Knysna, Dwayne Hurn, known as 'the duud,' is an enigmatic DJ whose lifelong musical journey was sparked by a fascination with vinyl records and nurtured by a diverse range of influences.

Rooted in his earliest days, he joined his parents in the garden at age 10, discovering music's power to connect. Drawing inspiration from iconic artists like UB40, Bob Marley, Pink Floyd, and Bruce Springsteen, his musical foundation became the bedrock of a boundless passion.

With a rich background in event organization and natural talent for coordinating DJs and creating seamless music flows, the duud's transformative touch has elevated legendary gatherings such as Vintage, Welcome to the Suburbs, and the recent hit, Deep Intentions.

Deep Intentions, born in Knysna, marked a turning point. Seeing the need for nightlife, Dwayne stepped up, shifting from background organizer to center stage. His discerning ear curated soulful selections, crafting unforgettable musical experiences that re-united the community.

Now in Cape Town, the duud readies to infuse new audiences with his distinct energy. While his versatile sets spanning Afro house, afro tech, house, deep house, techno, and minimal resonate with audiences across intimate gatherings and grand events alike.
