DJ Menis

Chris Menis — known across dance floors as DJ Menis — is one of Perth's most captivating underground selectors, with a career stretching back to 1996. He has since become known by the likes of Ministry of Sound as a ‘local icon’ — synonymous with the late-90s and 2000s rave circuit.

A DJ, producer, APRA-registered composer and one half of Wingsuit, his work includes remixing the likes of Itch-E & Scratch-E’s iconic “Sweetness and Light”, reimagining a watershed moment in Australian electronic music for a new era.

Emerging from Perth's 1996 rave scene, he held landmark residencies at Gravity — supporting the world's top hardcore and jungle DJs, including Slipmatt, Sy, Scott Brown and Marc Smith, before he was old enough to buy a drink — and Rise, alongside Ferry Corsten, Robert Miles, Paul van Dyk and CJ Bolland.

From Bagleys, The Arches, The Aquarium, Bowlers and Eruption FM in the UK to headline slots at Sydney's super raves — Two Tribes, Fantasia and Prophecy — alongside BT, Mauro Picotto, Hybrid and Fergie, then festivals including Southbound, Laneway and Hyperfest, and recent performances at Ministry of Sound tours alongside Utah Saints, Danny Tenaglia, Darren Emerson, Brandon Block and Altern 8. In 2023 he was one of 183 DJs who set the Guinness World Record for the Largest Club DJ Session Relay, and today he plays at premier events and to global audiences on Twitch.

His early production catalogue spans UK imprints Notorious Vinyl, Next Generation Records and Blatant Beats, with new releases through 2026. Hardcore, jungle, drum & bass, trance or techno — Menis bridges underground heritage with precision-engineered dancefloor mastery.
