mixbizblog.wordpress.com/2020/07/16/danny-tsuns-johnnie-b-good-tribute-to-keyboard-legend-johnnie-johnson/
“4 days of tunes done and dusted. Sydney Rave History long weekend mixathon was once again jam packed with awesome Djs smashing out their best. I rarely talk about stand out sets but there was one... Danny Tsun, aka DJ Tsunami -- very talented musician who has never used a controller in his life. A year ago some of us surprised him with a brand new controller. Little did we know that this surprise would turn into a huge stress factor for him to learn how to use it. One year to the day and he had his first spot for Sydney Rave History - the closing set for the weekend and what a set!! The moment he started, and at the end, when he thanked everyone for all the support and the moment I heard his voice tremble with emotion was a moment I'll never forget. Those who missed it missed it!! Danny made me realise that we never give up!"

It was so refreshing to hear your impressions of the current state of play in our industry, your honesty, your inspirational attitude, your creative spirit and your passion to achieve personal goals so that others may follow - even though they might think of them as impossible. And even though you have a disability. Good on you, all the best to you, Baz" - Barry Leef - 2020.
