Jordan “Van Damn” Van Wyness is one of Scotland’s most exciting electronic exports – a DJ, producer and tastemaker whose rise from the coastal town of Arbroath has been defined by credibility, consistency and pure dancefloor instinct.
A central figure in Scotland’s underground for over a decade, Van Damn is the founder of the influential All Good brand, which has hosted and supported some of the most respected names in global dance music, including Skream, Patrick Topping, Peggy Gou, Groove Armada, Ben Hemsley, Ewan McVicar and LF System. Through All Good, he helped shape a generation of parties while establishing himself as a trusted selector with a deep understanding of club culture.
As a DJ, Van Damn’s reputation has carried him from local institutions like Sub Club to major UK festivals and, more recently, onto Ibiza’s most iconic dancefloors. He made his debut at Hï Ibiza supporting Hannah Laing, strengthening a creative relationship that also saw him release music on her DOOF label. This was followed by a debut set at Amnesia Ibiza, warming up for KETTAMA and Ben Hemsley, alongside multiple high-profile support slots for Ben Hemsley across Sub Club, The Arches, and London’s newest underground venue Unlocked.
On the production side, Van Damn has built a strong and ongoing partnership with Fatboy Slim’s Southern Fried Records, releasing multiple records on the label and earning repeated support slots alongside Norman himself. His music has also received backing from BBC Radio 1, with plays from Jaguar and Sarah Story, including features during Ewan McVicar’s Radio 1 residency. Releases like ‘Can’t Grumble’ on Jaguar’s Utopia imprint marked a turning point, solidifying his reputation as a producer built for modern club systems.
Blending infectious energy, natural charisma and a refined ear for what truly works on the floor, Van Damn stands out as an artist equally at home in sweat-soaked basements, major festivals and world-famous clubs. With momentum firmly on his side, he’s no longer just one of Scotland’s favourites – he’s an artist with genuine international reach.
