BIOGRAPHY

Over the years I have learnt to play various types of musical instrument starting with a recorder aged 5, progressing on to a synthesisers in my early teens; and then an organ, where I played regularly at a church in West Germany.


Now, using the latest computer music software, I produce an array of music spanning many genres.


I don’t just only makes music for my pleasure.  I’ve had it included in a number of projects that I have been involved in at Keylink Studios, Merseyside.  My music has appeared on CD:K, a monthly audio magazine for school pupils aged 11 to 19 years old, produced between 2000 and 2003.  The CD:K project at the time, was funded by the Children's Local Network and Neighbourhood Renewal Community Chest.


2003 - 2006.


In 2003, I worked with an aspiring young film producer whom created a short sci-fi drama and required backing music to accompany the drama. I produced a number of chilling and heart stopping songs, used within the production. The drama ‘Demon Squirrels’ was then later commissioned and screened by Channel 4 (UK TV Company).


Other work has included writing backing music for productions that have been broadcast on the ‘Tonight’ Programme of KCR 106.7 fm.  Also, I have had the chance to broadcast my music on In-Shops Radio based in Kirby, Liverpool, Merseyside and on road shows with Keylink Studios engineering ‘Live’ outside broadcasts for Barclay’s Bank, Liverpool and Knowsley City Councils, Kelly’s Dance School and Asda.


As a member of Keylink Studios Radio Production Team, I also engineered and in some cases wrote and produced programmes, of which have included commercials, radio plays/sketches, reading the news; and researching/carrying out interviews.  I also taught Primary, Secondary and socially excluded school pupils, as well as disadvantaged children in Radio Production Research and Broadcasting, many of whom have gone on to work within the Broadcast Industry.  I have been involved in the production of Knowsley’s ‘Village Times’, an audio magazine for the blind and partially sighted, by writing, narrating and engineering articles.


2007.


In early 2007, ‘Deadair Productions’ (dp) was launched, producing music videos initially to accompany my music.


dp then branched out to the general public producing promotional material; and other video projects.  Widening the Fazakstudios.co.uk website (At the time, my main Music, TV and Radio projects website), a forum was added for guests, regular visitors; and clients to view additional info and material not featured on the Fazakstudios website.


In late 2007, I joined the Para-Para Network, producing music for the Japanese music scene.


2008.


2008 brought new challenges with re-mixes and productions for the Para-Para Network.


Working with producer Carl Noblet of Source One, my song ‘Pulsar’ was given a 2008 touch of magic and remixed into a stomping track.  The success of this remix and collaboration attracted the interest of UK Record Label ‘44Records’ whom released the track in late August.


2009.


I didn’t stop there; and went on to produce ‘Digg This!’ featuring 3 variations ‘Trapara, Dance Mix and Air Mix’. Again, 44Records took interest in this track and have once more released it on their label in February 2009, using the new artist name ‘Daveros’.  This change in artist name didn’t come by choice, but has been accepted; and as such new branding has been added to the Fazakstudios website, Logos and merchandise stores.


July 2009 saw the release of ‘Daveros - Energize’ featuring 3 tracks: Radio edit, original mix and hyper mix.  Released by Fazakstudios.co.uk on the ‘Deadair Productions’ Label.


September 2009 opened a new chapter for Fazakstudios.co.uk the original website set-up in 2000 to showcase my projects.  First of all it saw the release of ‘Daveros - Rock to the Rhythm’.  Featuring 4 tracks (Radio edit, Original mix, Vocal mix and Hyper Mix), released under the Fazakstudios label (Deadair Productions).  Next, came the announcement to alter the entire Fazakstudios website!  Instead of focusing solely on my music/projects, it was decided that the website and forums be made into a community music website for signed and unsigned artists/bands, re-mixers, producers, solo vocalists, rap artists, dancers, etc.  For this reason, Deadairdave.co.uk was born!


As I already have a website dedicated to my music projects, it was thought that it be best to keep Fazakstudios as the main community site and provide a link between the two sites.  For those that wish to visit the Fazakstudios website offering information for amateur and professional artists’ in funding, distribution, royalties, music organisations and industry contacts, you may do so by clicking the following link, (The website shall open in a new tab/window): Fazakstudios.co.uk


2010.


After a long break over the Holiday Season, February saw the next release 'Daveros - Stratosphere.' Initially released with two versions - 'Dance Mix' and 'Urban Remix' - these tracks fit under the Euro-Trance genre.


April saw the next release with 'Daveros - What do you...?? (Vocal Mix)’ another Euro-Dance track.


In May, re-mixers' Source One and Xtatica requested if they could remix 'Stratosphere.'  Source One’s track went on to be released in July 2010.


2011.


After a long break from music production to pursue other interests, I have begun the production of tracks from the RnB genre. I first produced RnB back in early 2000.   Working towards an album; and other producers, info regarding these tracks shall be made nearer the time.


July, my latest track 'Daveros - You're Not Alone' featuring two versions, one by myself, the other by re-mixer, ‘Source One.’ My version falls under the Scouse-house genre, whilst SO's Remix is a Hard Trance release.  In addition to this, is another track ‘Daveros - Bring That Beat Back!’ Originally written in 2004, this track has been given a major 2011 update; and is expected to tear up the dance floor!


2012


September, launches a selection of old and new tracks on Soundcloud.com integrating them within the ‘Releases’ section of both Fazakstudios.co.uk and Deadairdave.co.uk.  As a final release of 2012, ‘Daveros - NYE’ a trance/dance anthem is released for December.


2013.


........5 months into the New Year and I release 'X-Dance' a fast paced dance/trance track, followed shortly after by 'Neutronium' a powerful trance track with plenty of my usual synth and piano sequences.


Then with love on my mind, I switched from my usual trance/dance genre to something more down-tempo. Featuring the lush Vocals of singer/songwriter Danny Claire, known from hit tracks like 'Test Drive' with Michael Angelo and 'Remember' with Ion Blue, I produced 'Somewhere,' 'Set You Free;' and 'Today.'  


Sticking with the down-tempo genre, I then went on to produce 'Dreams' featuring Adam Somers.  Adam has many years experience and great success in the vocal scene and has featured on many tracks, including writing and performing a large number of his own tracks.


New material has been written for release on iTunes, Amazon, Rhapsody, 7Digital, Spotify, Sony Qriocity, iHeart Radio (Streams on mobiles and games consoles - PS3/4, Xbox 360/One and Xbox Live), AT&T, Nokia, Beatport, Juno, Wimp and 24/7 Entertainment.


The first track to hit the download stores was 'Daveros - XdC' a hard trance song, all instrumental and featuring two unique versions.  As part of this Global release via distribution company 'Dittomusic.com' I have setup a new record label called 'A1R Records.'  'Deadair Productions' will now solely be used for video and radio projects, both past and present.


At the beginning of August, whilst listening to sets from Ibiza streamed via video music website Be-At.TV I came to enjoy the genre known as ‘Dirty Electro’.  With ideas of my own; and a lot of experimenting using my favourite DAW FL Studio, I came up with several new tracks; and continue for the month of August to produce many more!!  All these tracks are available to stream via Soundcloud; and on rotation via the main Fazakstudios and Deadairdave websites.


2014.


April brought a massive number of new EDM and Electro House tracks, from the downright bizarre of what happens when you mix a load of different sounds together, to the full-on Ibiza style EDM releases.  The ‘Daveros’ tracks to hear and stream on Soundcloud for 2014 were: ‘Timeless Energy’, ‘Night Life’, ‘Electronic Abyss’, ‘Party Like A Raver!’, ‘Falling’, ‘Angel’, ‘On My Way (Feat. Danny Claire)’, ‘Paradise’, ‘Nightlights’; and ‘Bounce’.


2015.


First track of the year was a remix of an old tune ‘Daveros - Energize (A1R Remix)’.  I have written many tracks over the years, many of which I have never released; and sit in a dusty cupboard on several CDR’s.  For this reason, this year will see me remixing those tracks into modern day Trance, Dance and EDM songs.  Like many other artists, the best bits of a track stand out, but get shelved, but the ideas for the rest of the song don’t get completed, so that is the goal between now and August.  To tinker with the old; and bring them to life!!  In addition to ‘Energize’, another remix of ‘Feel The Beat (A1R Mix)’ was release in January.  A full on foot stomper of a track.


March saw the release of ‘Space Pulse’, ‘Return To Ibiza’; and ‘Sliced & Diced’.  These three new tracks, built from scratch, took me from the Electro path; and swung me right into the EDM genre!


April, has been a very busy month!!  ‘Gridlock’ came 1st; and rose from playing around with a synth that made the sound similar to a car horn.  The sound was eventually changed, to a cleaner synth, but the concept was kept and a great EDM/Dance song was produced.  Next came EDM/Ibiza-styled ‘Movin’ Groovin’, (Probably my most played track, since release), available to buy or stream via the following services:


iTunes, Amazon, Spotify, 7Digital, Deezer, eMusic, GooglePlay, Rdio, Medianet, Rhaspody, Symfy, Slacker, Shazam; and JB Hi-Fi (An Australian Streaming/Radio service).


Continuing with my productions I uploaded dance number ‘Hydrus’ to Soundcloud as my next track.  Following straight on came a Hardcore track, one that had been started over a year ago - ‘Nocturnal Wonderland’.  No sooner than I finished the track and shared it with fellow musicians to hear on Facebook, did the request from an old friend and fellow producer Gert James from South Africa come in to remix the track.  Under his artist name of ‘Pagoda’, Gert set to work on re-mixing the original and showing that he still is high in his game at producing outstanding music!!  Although less than a day after releasing his version ‘Daveros - Nocturnal Wonderland (Pagoda's Creeps Come Out Remix)’ did the response that he was working on a new remix, one with vocals!!  Safe to say it has definitely knocked the original version right out of the water, across land; and into the unknown, as by far this new remix by Gert is the Holy Grail of re-mixes!  This new version ‘Daveros - Nocturnal Wonderland (Pagoda's Light of the Night Remix)’ will put anyone that has ever had the joys to attend an EDM/EDC/Q-Dance event, right there, right when the voice-over artist starts to talk at the beginning of the track and put you in the mood to get off the grass and party hard!  This is what Gert has managed to achieved and I thank him greatly for it!!  All three tracks are available to stream via the 'Releases' section, or via my Soundcloud page.


So, what’s next??  Well, the plan was to produce an album to be released around June/July 2015.  That meant holding on to several tracks and then the bigger thought, “What about the remixes, what does one do with all of those?”  So, that idea has been scrapped and now I’m on a mission, to release one track every week from the beginning of June right through till the end of August!  A mammoth task you might think, but I write music non-stop, several of which I put aside and think, “I’ll return to these later.”  5 years later in some cases!!  As anyone who has come to know my style, I like anything with synths, pads, guitars and pianos.  I like to merge all 4 into pretty much every track, be it a classical track, hardstyle, dance, trance or EDM, so as I pick up old projects and rip them apart with new ideas, these then become the weekly releases.  


Not all shall be going on sale though, I still like to release many free tracks via Soundcloud (along with previews of release tracks); and other music streaming services.  But, every now and then, I like to share my music on every Global media service available; and the only way to do that is to distribute it via online stores.  I’m more than happy to have remix artists’ show me their talents at re-mixing my tracks.  If anyone wishes to do so, drop a request either on Facebook, Twitter or via the ‘Contact’ section of this website.


2016.


Like every year, I take a short break from the Christmas holidays until April, then start releasing music again.  For those that visit my Soundcloud page, I have my 1st new track of the year “Daveros - Burst On Fire.” This can be streamed via the ‘Releases’ section.


Out now, all tracks below are available to stream/download from all digital services, with previews available in the ‘Releases’ Section:


“Daveros - Just Be Mine.”  “Daveros - Without Your Love.”  “Daveros - City Lights.” And “Daveros - New Day/New Day (Air Remix).” ‘New Day’ is dedicated to a good friend, work colleague and follower of my music, Adam Birkett.


The next release was “Daveros - I Want To Dance/I Want To Dance (EDM Mix).”  It’s not often that I write/produce tracks about people I know, but this is the 2nd track (“Just Be Mine” being the 1st) dedicated to someone that shall have a special place in my heart, always.  Unlike with Adam’s initials appearing in the ‘O’ of my artist name, I’m keeping this person’s name a secret, albeit she is identified by the altered colours of the ‘real’ emerald in my name.









In addition to my music, I have returned back to what I started out doing in 1998/99 - 2007, DJing.  Albeit, this is not live in clubs/events (for now), but via the use of Mixcloud (The Mixcloud link redirects to the Projects>DJ Section.  Sound cloud and Facebook links go to my specific pages), Soundcloud and Facebook Live, I'm back to mixing music with the help of Pioneer's most up-to-date hardware.  In time, I'll add some videos to my YouTube channel.  Speaking of which, many of my new music tracks (including released tracks) are available to stream via YouTube.  No need to search, Click the image below for the direct link (and feel free to subscribe), or visit the Projects>Video Section where all of the videos are available to watch.








2017.


Keeping with music production, my next release was “Daveros - Come Fly With Me.”  A full on driving piano, synth track very much like my older tracks from the early 2000’s.  


Next came “Daveros - Tropical Trance.”  Released on all streaming services, this is a nice little trance number of energetic synths, with a hint of tropical essence thrown in.


June saw the return of a hard trance track - “Daveros - Basswave.” Available purely for streaming on Soundcloud and in the releases section of this website.


July, I found an old favourite of mine in one of the many folders on an external hard drive and decided to begin working on it again until finished.  One more for streaming on Soundcloud and this website only, please search for and listen to “Daveros - Bring That Beat Back! (Dance Mix).”  It’s a track that is packed with vocals mashed to perfection and will guarantee to get you up out of your chair as you begin to listen to it!


September saw the release of “Daveros - Sunrise,” once again released on all streaming services, this track is a mellow trance track, were at times it will feel a little upbeat.


With a little break, November was my next release with 2 versions being vocal and instrumental.  This track is called “Daveros - Stay.”  Admittedly, there’s a few added seconds of silence added to the end of the instrumental version, not intentionally on my part I might add, something that went wrong in the upload process between me and my distributor.  Who knows what happened, annoying to say the least, as taking the one track down means pulling it from well over 300+ stores!  For that reason, I kind of left it as the one track with the ‘glitch’ and hopefully, never to be repeated!  


Swiftly moving on, I released “Daveros - Transcendental.”  Yep, it’s a mouthful, I totally agree!  If you’ve written/produced as many tracks as me over the past 18 years, you’ll come to understand when it comes to naming tracks, you begin to run out of things to call them, lol!  It’s almost as hard as producing the artwork, something I do for every single track released, including the album covers for my DJ mixes on Soundcloud and Mixcloud.  Occassionally, I’ll buy the images, get a license in some instances to reuse them in my artwork, other times, I’ll fire up my software, a really old programme I got years ago with a tiny usb camera (iCool Cam I think it was called?!).  The software I still use for everything, a bit like photoshop


Moving on, the end of the year usually has me sit back and take a break, but not this year!  Somehow, I seem to be breaking traditions, mostly because with the introduction of Live streaming my DJ sets, I’m finding it harder to fit in everything, but in a way I love both production and mixing, so it’s a balancing act!


The final track of 2017 - “Daveros - Hands In The Air,” is a full on Melbourne track, designed to get you up once more, like so many of my tracks.  At some point in 2018, I’ll write a remix, but for the final day of 2018 (31st December was the actual release date!), this track concluded my releases for 2017!


2018.


Into the New Year, and usually I’m having a break until April, when I start releasing again, but not this year! 2018 for me, is a new year, taking me on a completely different path to that of every other year since 2000, when I started producing! For me, I’m not just concentrating on productions or mixing (Djing), I’m also concentrating on getting out and joining the many thousands of festival goers around the Globe that attend festival after festival; and have the time of their lives! That is me now! I may not be playing/performing at any of these venues, I may strike it lucky and do so in some unofficial means, ie rocking up with speakers, an iPad, a few battery chargers; and going from there, lol, but in doing this, fulfilling a lifelong ambition to meet new people that enjoy the very things that I do - music - it’s time to take that walk into the unknown and join the adventure that everyone else does!


For 2018, this is my only new track to date, released in February - “Daveros - I Wanna Sing Everything.” Yep, some of you may have heard a couple of other versions of this from years gone by! I found this particular version gathering dust on the very same external hard drive as ‘Bring That Beat Back! (Dance Mix)’ and decided to send it to the distributor. Like all the tracks before this one, they can be streamed in the Releases section of this website. Anything that’s on other services such as Apple, Tidal, Deezer, Spotify etc, will fade out in the media player, every other track will be fully streamable; and in some cases, downloadable direct from my Soundcloud page, so be sure to check out the links for any tracks you may want.


Sure, there will be other tracks this year, I’m not hanging up my headphones!! I just thought it be right to explain why there may be longer gaps in the amount of music I release. Rest assured, I’ll update my Facebook, Twitter and Instagram pages, along with the front of this website with news, release dates, live streams, recorded mixes and any events, whether I’m playing at or just attending - I want to meet you guys (…and ladies), my followers, my friends!


During the UK August Bank Holiday weekend, I camped for the 1st time in the Silver/Gold fields of Daresbury, at the best festival I’ve attended the past 12 consecutive years. I joined a group of great people I’d already met and attended with, at a couple of festivals/events already this year. #RaiseIT is the name of the group, made up of solo members, that have basically wanted to go to events/festivals, but had no one to go with. Enter the #RaiseIT group and what a group it is! Formed in January from people posting on a Facebook page (Creamfields Social), a Whatsapp group was created; and it soon became apparent that Creamfields wasn’t the only UK event!!

April was the first release of the year, one which has been long overdue!  ‘Daveros - Nightwatcher’ is my first Techno track that I have produced in a number of years!  With a pounding sub-sonic bass, those that like to stand by the speaker wall at an event, will come to like the feeling they get from their home speaker system, when they play this!

Next came the long-awaited release of the track I tapped out at the poolside of Balaton Sound, Hungary.  Aptly named ‘Balaton’ this track returns me back to my trance roots, full of melodic notes.

Lockdown came to the U.K. And meant my usual outings to Pirate Studios and my training at SEM Manchester grounded to an abrupt halt!  That didn’t stop me from picking up my Live streaming from home, with an iPad, Pioneer WeGo4 controller and my iPhone & iPod as cameras.  


In May, I had the chance to join the ‘Last Night A DJ Saved My Life’ team in hosting a weekend of charity fundraising for their ‘Set For Love’ raising awareness and donations to provide food, clean running water and sanitation supplies to communities in developing countries.  


Continuing with my music, I released two new tracks in May - ‘Daveros - United As One’ and ‘Daveros - Together Forever’.  These two tracks came to be a big hit with fans on Spotify; and surprisingly, TikTok also where my music was used in short dance videos by members of the public.

June saw another event by the organisers of ‘Last Night A DJ Saved My Life’ and naturally, I jumped on board to host another weekend of Live streams to promote their charity and bring in donations.

Next came my final release of Lockdown with ‘Daveros - Liquid Gold’.  This is a full-on trance track, with a blend of different elements that will surely get you up and dancing long before the first drop!


August; and I’m back in my favourite place, that is, SEM Manchester!

September; and with the Facebook group I run on my own “Promote Your Music, Events & DJ Mixes (Live or Recorded),” I added a new Internet radio station as a member of the group (Revolution of Dance Radio - Revolutionofdance.co.uk) and subsequently requested to join them, as they seemed to want exactly what I loved to produce and DJ.  Well, we’re in December now; and I’m producing both pre-recorded weekly shows and also going out Live on special events.  This is my next step to going in the direction I have wanted to go in a long time; and with Revolution this is a great opportunity to be a part of.

In addition to Revolution, I have been asked to produce a guest mix for another UK Internet radio station Loop Radio for their uplifter show, which I aim to send out to them in the coming days.


2021


It’s a New Year!  Doesn’t quite feel like a New Year, what with a pandemic ruling our way of life, but that hasn’t stopped me from continuing with my weekly radio appearance on Revolution of Dance Radio; and taking part in more Live events, New Years Eve being the most recent, were I played a double set over 3 hours, mixing up trance, psytrance and finishing up with hardstyle! Yep, they asked me to go faster; and that I did, from 138bpm right up to 170bpm!

In addition to the radio shows and live events, I have been asked to take part in a couple of charity events for the station, which I am happy to be a part of.  One thing I try, were I can, is help those that need it most, so I look forward to these events when they happen; and shall update all of my social media pages with the details, so that people can tune in.

Today, January 4th, I got some awesome news from SEM Manchester, were they have decided to feature me in their Mix of the Month for January.  Safe to say, I’m one very happy person with that news and it goes to show that all the hard work has been worth every minute!


2022






























































2023


Thus far, 2023 has been a fast moving year, with plenty of new music, continued shows on Loop Radio, with a move from Sunday to Saturday at 9pm; and a huge event, opening BTN Live (Bring The Noise), at The Mill, Birmingham as a B2B 2-hour set with my good friend and fellow DJ, Pringy (Paul Pring).  If you remember, he and I met back in 2018, as solo attendees to Creamfields; and we’ve gone on to produced music and DJ together at a number of events.

So, what’s the new music, I hear you ask?






BRING THE NOISE 2023

I’m proud to announce I shall be performing a 2-hour back2back session with my good friend and fellow DJ, Pringy at

Bring The Noise - The Mill, Digbeth, Birmingham.















































Thanks for your continued support.

Daveros.

2020.


February and back in Pirate Studios Liverpool, broadcasting my DJ sets, whilst testing out multi-angle camera views, streaming to multiple services - Twitch, YouTube, Instagram TV and Facebook Live! I also enrolled on a 4-month DJ course at SEM Manchester (UK) as thus far, I’ve self-taught myself everything; and thought it was time I learnt a few new things to progress my career.

Daveros - EDM Mix (Pirate Studios 3rd Jan 2020) from Dave Ros on Vimeo.

2019.


January 2019 and I’m back in the production swing with something I’ve not produced before - Psytrance. I think my new group of festival friends have introduced me to DJ’s and music I never really would listen to, myself, but I’ve loved every minute of it!


I’ve been working on 5 new psytrance tracks, 4 trance tracks and a number of EDM/Melbourne and hardstyle tracks. April saw the release of  ‘Daveros - Elements’. This particular track started out as one of my trance tracks, but as I’ve slowly added in new elements, I’m thinking that a psytrance remix is definitely on the cards.


Following on from ‘Elements’ is ‘Daveros - Redshift7’.  A trance track again; and named after the Galaxy featured on the front cover!


May saw the release of a Euro/Dance track, ‘Daveros - Energize’.  To be truthful, I original wrote this in early 2006, but this version has been stripped back to the bare roots and recreated, so, in my mind it’s a new release!  The original versions are on Soundcloud.


June, we have two track and one remix!  First, ‘Daveros - Tranquility’ and ‘Daveros - Tranquility (Air Mix)’, two exceedingly chilled trance tracks.  The Air Mix is my favourite; and I play it quite often.  Just released 30th June, ‘Daveros - Moonstone’.  Yet another trance track of equal chillness; and something I shall be playing whilst surfing a strawberry lilo on Lake Balaton, lol.


July 21st, my next new track, ‘Daveros - Eivissa’ Trance again (My 4th one), I’ve allowed some of my closest friends to preview this; and the feedback received has been, “I can see myself chilling by the pool, with a cocktail, in Ibiza, listening to this!”  That’s one of the many reasons the track ID changed to ‘Eivissa’.  


Everything I produce shall be uploaded to my Soundcloud page, as well as the various streaming services we’ve all come to use these days! I’ve not stopped with my freebie releases on my Soundcloud page. In addition to the above, I’ll be dropping a few EDM and Bounce (Melbourne) tracks throughout the year as well.


Production aside, I’m also still mixing both mine and other people’s tracks, live streaming were possible. My plans are to aim for events in the near future, but I’ll post on any details as they become available.


April was a busy month.  Not just for producing, but also getting out and mingling with the many fans at Armin Van Buuren's event at the SSE in London.  My next #RaiseIT adventure was at Balaton Sound, Hungary starting for me was on July 1st, with 4 trains and a plane, lol, with 6 days of mayhem in 32C heat by Central Europe’s largest lake!  If you where there; you’ll know how much fun it was!  If you weren’t and have never been, it’s one Festival I’d highly recommend!!


August Bank Holiday weekend; and back for my 13th year at Creamfields, Daresbury and my 2nd year of DJ’ing from Gold Camp!! Unlike 2018, I entertained a lot more people on that campsite, going fully prepared with some 1200 tracks of every genre imaginable, lol!!


After another fun filled weekend at Creamfields with musical energy flowing through my veins, it didn’t take me long to sit down and produce more music.  The first release leading the way towards the end of 2019 came with ‘Daveros - Horizon’ followed by ‘Daveros - Eclipse’ in early September.  I decided to take a short break, until asked by my festival friends to join them at an AirBnB in December for a small get-together.  Naturally, my controller, lasers and speakers went along; and we had three days of me and a fellow festival friend/DJ (Pringy) entertaining our small but friendly group.

My 1st event (Along with some of the group members that could attend), was in Liverpool to watch Third Party perform their exclusive live performance; and being my birthday at the stroke of midnight whilst they were on, the group began to sing Happy Birthday, lol!! Wasn’t expecting it being right at the front, nor was I expecting every other person in the crowd behind me begin to join in! What a night to remember!!


Next came my first trip to Ministry of Sound, London, supposedly to watch Dash Berlin. Sadly, that was the night he cancelled, informing everyone a few days later that he was retiring from the scene. Pah, shame. That didn’t stop the #RaiseIT group travel from across the country to come together for an alternative night laid on by the club with last minute changes!


With the sad news of Avicii passing, the next event only seemed right to be his Tribute, once again in Liverpool, once again with the #RaiseIT group.


So, back to Creamfields in August. Our group was relatively small between 8-12 people, coming and going throughout the year, but at Creamfields that’s where the magic began! Day 1, Thursday and the weather was hell; and so was the walk from the drop-off North Entrance to the Gold/Silver campsite. I had directions to go to the back of the Horizon stage, ha, finding that was a nightmare, especially when you are on your own!! Speaking of which, this was my 1st year attending on my own, so I had no idea what to expect. Every other person coming from the group were either coming by coach or car to the festival, many via train and even plane! Yep, one member came from the USA, another from Dubai, their first festival too! With a 5-man tent Coleman Mountain Rocky 5 Plus, blackout material within; and a couple of disco lights powered by a USB charger, I DJ'd from the back of my tent within the campsite, performing a few sets to keep the ‘after party’ going! That attracted up to 40 people (Outside my tent) 10 people within, on the Saturday. I've said for years I've wanted to play at Creamfields, that weekend, it came true, albeit from our campsite, lol, but still, handing out business cards about me and my music, it attracted a vast new following, of people that liked my music and DJ'ing style, most at first thinking I was streaming my iTunes collection, which then came as a great surprise to see me actually DJ'ing live, from an app on my iPhone; and many came back the next day wanting more!
