Some DJ careers are built on hype. John Digweed’s career is built on
substance. One of the planet’s most popular DJs, his sets never fall
out of favour with clubbers the world over, as his relentless global
gig schedule testifies. From ethereal, swirling cinematic
soundscapes to energy-infused bass-bothering tech growlers, a new
generation of clubbers are learning what we already know - that
there’s nothing quite like being locked into a John Digweed set. But
John Digweed is much more than a DJ. Bedrock – his record label,
promotions company and production partnership with Nick Muir – is a
mothership of creative ingenuity and integrity that other labels
orbit around. His vision for the Bedrock record label has been
realized over 12 years, as he continuously seeks out mixes and
remixes from the world’s best producers. Techno mainstays like Marco
Bailey, Christian Smith and John Selway sit
comfortably alongside hot new talent like Guy J in the Bedrock camp.
In a dance scene increasingly inhabited by inflated egos and
gimmicks, John’s approach remains all drive, no drama, a heads-down
crack-on attitude that has won him the respect of his peers.
However, the fact remains that John Digweed has notched up a mighty
list of groundbreaking achievements since he first became involved
in the embryonic acid house scene as a 15-year-old lad in Hastings.
The gates of heaven will open up early for this one at 10 pm and
musical patronage will be provided by the AWAY residents Andreas
Horn & Szymon, Lutz Markwirth, Thierry Coochin.
A promising night!
