Jonny was Here.
By the time you read this, it’s a safe assumption that Jonny’s breakout tune, Sometimes I feel like saying goodbye, has probably cruised past 2 million streams on Spotify (currently sitting at 1,998,980 at the time this was written). Here at Night Division we absolutely love celebrating local talent, that we think deserve a spotlight and will undoubtedly go on to do great things in the industry. When we came across Jonny in early 2024, he immediately turned our heads. A producer who appears to be years ahead of his actual age in terms of production quality, and equipped with a rather larger arsenal of unreleased tunes spanning from afro house to techno to uplifting, euphoric house numbers; we knew we had to give Jonny his debut live DJ performance while we had the chance. Jonny appears to draw influence from an array of electric producers including Barry Can’t swim, Ben Bohmer, BUNT, Rufus Du Sol & Keinemusik.. to name but a few…
It may too early to pinpoint his sound, partly because he’s expertly produced tracks from so many different genres thus far, but that’s exactly what excites us about Jonny. The future is bright and we’re not sure of his next move. One thing for sure is that if you manage to catch Jonny performing live any time soon, definitely drop in to catch, what we think could be, a show to look back on in years to come.Welcome to a world of limitless possibilities, where the journey is as exhilarating as the destination, and where every moment is an opportunity to make your mark on the canvas of existence. The only limit is the extent of your imagination.
O.J. Wilson
Belfast seems to have something in the water. Despite the size of this small city, it seems to boast a rather impressive array of DJs, producers and creatives of all ages. O.J. Wilson is most definitely a good example of Belfast punching above its weight when it comes to young, up and coming DJ talent. With performances at the likes of Hï in Ibiza and the Telegraph building in Belfast supporting the likes of Fatboy slim & Ewan McVicar, it’s no stretch to say that Olly is a name to look out for on the local scene.

Making his Night Division debut in June 2024 and proving his ability to raise the roof with a splendid mixture of house and electro, OJ has certainly established himself firmly into the ND family and one to look out for on future lineups. House is back baby!Welcome to a world of limitless possibilities, where the journey is as exhilarating as the destination, and where every moment is an opportunity to make your mark on the canvas of existence.
