SeanTilldawn
Hawaiʻi-based DJ • MC • Promoter
SeanTilldawn is a Hawaiʻi-based DJ, MC, and community builder whose sound is rooted in bass culture, island rhythms, and the raw energy of outdoor, underground dance floors. Drawing influence from Hawaiʻi’s reggae, electronic, and live-music scenes, his sets blend reggae bass, downtempo, trip-hop, breaks, psy-influenced bass, and livetronica, guided less by genre and more by vibe.
Originally cutting his teeth as a downtempo and trip-hop DJ in the early ’90s, Sean’s return to live performance was reignited through Burning Man, where he served as stage manager and DJ for Camp Tetrion (2011–2013). That experience reshaped his approach—favoring immersive, high-energy sets designed to move bodies and build connection rather than chase trends.
Known for reading rooms and lifting crowds, SeanTilldawn often incorporates live vocals and MC work, creating dance floors that feel participatory, sweaty, and alive. His sound moves fluidly—from deep bass and breaks to dark electro, minimal tech, and psychedelic edges—always anchored in rhythm and intention.
Sean has performed at festivals, clubs, and underground events across Hawaiʻi, including Love Festival, Source Festival, Firejam, Collidascope, and numerous pop-up and outdoor gatherings. He has shared stages with national and international artists such as DJ Swamp, ill.Gates, SOOHAN, Rhythmstar, and David Starfire, while also supporting and promoting local scenes through recurring events and collaborations.
Beyond the decks, Sean is deeply invested in artist development and community infrastructure. He is the founder of Inov8seaN Studios in Kailua, Hawaiʻi—a creative space offering music production, DJ education, recording, consulting, and artist support.
At the core, SeanTilldawn is a vibe rider—focused on what the moment needs, what the dance floor asks for, and how music can bring people together. Expect bass-forward selections, unexpected turns, and a room that doesn’t stop moving.
