Liubo Ursiny

Diving deep in music is a never-ending story. You never know where it will take you. Or so was the case before the advent of social media and the following no-photos-on-the-dancefloor policy, designed to bring back the focus on the immediate escapism with your surroundings and favourite music. Half-Slovak, half-Bulgarian Liubo Ursiny has long been a vocal and clearly passionate proponent of music as a vehicle not only to take you on a journey, as the popular cliché goes, but to make your feet dance to the rhythm in a perpetual state. The resident DJ and talent director for Yalta Club is an uncompromising man, that doesn’t stray away from the concept of less is more – play fewer venues, indulge the audience with adamant sound and music selection and concentrate on the energy. Blame his background (guitar and piano lessons from an early age along with a father, who was an important figure in Slovak rock and jazz music) for an innate understanding of song composition and how to build a set. Liubo Ursiny has been cutting his teeth behind the decks for more than fifteen years and received praises and accolades from many contemporary names, as well as a close bond with none other than Argentinian progressive maestro Hernan Cattaneo. From his marathon 8-hour sets at former monthly residencies BLAME and SUNDAY to playing and producing SOLAR events and running his current club night TAKEOVER with a string of well-known and classy foreign guest DJs, Liubo has a relentless drive to provide the best possible atmosphere to immerse you in music. You will have to make the monthly trip to Yalta to listen to his music or follow his regular podcast on all streaming services – choose wisely, as this is not your usual Friday night host, but a thorough DJ with immaculate skills behind the decks and a constant desire for a revolution of the mind, hips and soul.
