Description:
John Digweed is a masterful DJ. Given that he began playing in nightclubs at 16, it's probably only right he should be. Back then, kids in the suburbs could only access house music on illegal rave tapes, or through recordings of U.S. radio stations like New York's Kiss FM. A pal introduced John to both and, immediately smitten, he set about getting equipment, and chasing down import copies of the records he'd heard. He split his time between working - firstly as a part-time gardener, later as a full-time bar manager - going to clubs in London, and DJing locally. Predictably, he found getting gigs hard, so he set up his own night, Bedrock, and invited his favourite DJs to play. All these years later, Bedrock events take place worldwide, and it has spawned a firmly established record label of the same name. John Digweed is now recognised as one of the world's greatest exponents of his profession, his name easily ranking alongside those of his influences. In addition, he's a br! oadcaster, a producer, a promoter, and an active A&R Executive, working hard to give new artists their first break, on decks or on vinyl.

"I bought a cheap Denon turntable that didn't even have a pitch control, a second hand Technics that did, and a little Realistic mixer. I used to work doing gardening and odd jobs so that I could buy my records. I had to work out the BPM's of every record, so that if one was faster I could still go into the next. The main reason for starting Bedrock was because I couldn't get regular gigs, so I started my own night. I got Fabio, Grooverider, Eddie Richards, Carl Cox. and I used the flyers with my name on next to theirs to persuade promoters to book me. You have to be actively pushing yourself, making things happen." - John Digweed.
