DJ Yoda (Dun­can Beiny) is from Lon­don, Eng­land, and is prob­a­bly the only guy out there play­ing the theme tune to Cheers” in hip-hop clubs. And you can find him in the club (like 50 Cent) most nights per week – Yoda has trav­elled as far as Japan, USA, Cana­da, Swe­den, Ire­land and Aus­tralia to DJ with the likes of De La Soul, Gang Starr, Goldie, Roni Size, Pete Tong and the Scratch Perverts.
