Dave Kelly (Born 4 November 1969, In Kingston, Jamaica) is a Jamaican record producer and the brother of another record producer Tony "CD" Kelly. He began his career as an engineer in the late eighties. After getting into producing at the "Penthouse" label of Donovan Germain, he started his own label "Madhouse" together with business partner Janet Davidson in 1991. He went on to become one of the most successful dancehall-producers in Jamaica, recording numerous songs that topped the local and international reggae-charts, such as "Action" by Nadine Sutherland & Terror Fabulous in 1994 or "Look" by Bounty Killer in 1999.
Dave Kelly has released some of the most popular and influential dancehall riddims such as "Joyride," "Showtime," "Fiesta", and "85". He produced Beenie Man's international hit "Dude" in 2003 on the "Fiesta" riddim, which was featured on Beenie Man's album Back to Basics and Baby Cham's major hit "Ghetto Story," on the "85" riddim, which was the title track of Baby Cham's 2006 album that he also produced.

Career
Kelly worked at Kix 96 FM until 2000, then freelanced as a radio presenter. He later joined the Newcastle upon Tyne, England based Galaxy North East where he presented the weekday evening show and a networked Saturday dance show.
After two years, the then owners of Galaxy (Chrysalis Group) decided to network his radio shows, resulting in him moving to the network centre, Galaxy Yorkshire in Leeds, England.
He also presented a Saturday dance show on the Global Radio owned Capital London alongside his Galaxy shows and eventually in June 2009, he left Galaxy to work at Capital FM full-time, presenting the 2200–0200 slot.
On 3 January 2011 the Galaxy and Hit Music networks merged to form the Capital network. As a result, his late night show could therefore be heard across the UK on the new network with a slight change of show time, as he was moved to Sunday to Thursday from 2300–0300. From 3 January, he was once again broadcasting on his old Galaxy stations, under the new Capital name.
