About Cory Centric the owner of Home of Afro House & The Afrocentric Event Brand An experienced DJ, record collector and connoisseur of music. Cory began DJing in the late 80s playing funk, disco and soul before making his name on the underground House music scene in London during the late 90s. By the turn of the century Cory ran two successful House music club nights in his hometown of London and began nurturing the idea of starting up his own record label which would produce and release consistent quality house music “NO FILLERS” to keep people on the dance floor. This label would later become the well known Centric Music. A chance meeting at the 2003 Winter Music Conference in Miami, brought Cory’s unique style of play, to the attention of one of the UK’s top clubbing brands, the infamous Kinky Malinki. Within 6 months Cory had become one of their main room resident DJs, gracing the decks at some of the world’s most famous clubs including Ministry of Sound, Pacha (London) El Divino (Ibiza), The Cross, Egg, Wagg Club (Paris), Pappaya (Croatia), and Zinc (Dubai) to name just a few. Throughout the years Cory would play for several leading club nights and House music brands such as Clockwork Orange, Soul On The Beach (Miami), Tribe and Garage City. A versatile DJ, Cory is able to dominate the dance floor wether it's playing a lively main room set or warming up for the likes of Todd Terry, Kenny Dope, Hardsoul, Grant Nelson, DJ Spen, Moodymanc, Charles Webster, or Audiowhores. Cory moved to Dubai in 2011 and began Djing on the underground house scene launching his own “No Fillers” party and from 2013 to 2015 as resident for House of Afrika where he played alongside the likes of Osunlade, Shimza, and Black Motion.

"Quality House Music NO FILLERS"

Home of Afro House of Authentic Afro House

"After running Centric Music for 7 years I started Home of Afro House with the aim of showcasing some of the high quality house music coming out of the African Continent, which I feel is too easily lost in the stacks of new music being released. I want to provide a platform for these talented producers and artist’s to expose them to a wider audience by releasing their music across the world in Digital and vinyl format as well as getting selected tracks remixed by producers who you don’t usually associate with the Afro house Genre." - Cory Centric
