			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Joseph Saddler (born , 1958 in Bridgetown, Barbados) better known as Grandmaster Flash, is an American hip hop musician and DJ; one of the pioneers of hip-hop DJing, cutting, and mixing. He is also a nephew to the great Former Feather Weight Champion of the World, the late Sandy Saddler. Grandmaster Flash and the Furious Five were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2007, becoming the first hip hop/rap artists to be so honored.</p>
<p>Grandmaster Flash is set to appear in the video game DJ Hero as a playable character along with original mixes created for the game.</p>
<p>Biography</p>
<p>Saddler&#8217;s family migrated to the United States from the West Indies, and he grew up in the Bronx. He currently lives in the Morrisania section of the South Bronx. He became involved in the earliest New York DJ scene, attending parties set up by early luminaries. Learning from Pete Jones and Kool Herc, he used duplicate copies of a single record and two turntables (for cutting) but added a dexterous manual edit with a mixer to promote the break (the ordinary playing of the record would be interrupted to overlay the break, the break could be repeated by using the mixer to switch channels while the second record was spun back). He also developed the technique initially called cutting (which was developed by Grand Wizard Theodore into scratching) (AMG). Flash was also influenced by Grandmaster Flowers along with other early DJs.</p>
<p>Grandmaster Flash&#8217;s parents played an important role in his interest in music. His parents came from Barbados and his father was a big fan of Caribbean and black American records. As a child, Flash was fascinated by his father&#8217;s record collection, &#8220;My father was a very heavy record collector. He still thinks that he has the stronger collection. I used to open his closets and just watch all the records he had. I used to get into trouble for touching his records, but I&#8217;d go right back and bother them.&#8221; Murray Forman and Mark Anthony Neal&#8217;s book That&#8217;s the Joint describes how Flash&#8217;s entry into &#8220;cutting&#8221; came from this fascination with his father&#8217;s record collection as well as his mother&#8217;s desire for him to educate himself in electronics</p>
<p>Grandmaster Flash and the Furious Five</p>
<p>Main article: Grandmaster Flash and the Furious Five<br />
Flash played parties and also worked with rappers such as Kurtis Blow and Lovebug Starski. He formed his own group in the late 1970s, after promptings from Ray Chandler. The initial members were Cowboy (Keith Wiggins), Melle Mel (Melvin Glover) and Kid(d) Creole (Nathaniel Glover) making Grandmaster Flash &#038; the 3 MCs (with Melle Mel being the first rapper ever to call himself an &#8220;MC&#8221;). Two other rappers briefly joined, but they were replaced more permanently by Rahiem (Guy Todd Williams, previously in the Funky Four) and Scorpio (Eddie Morris, also used the name Mr. Ness) to create Grandmaster Flash and the Furious Five. Soon gaining recognition for their skillful raps, Grandmaster Flash and the Furious Five pioneered MCing, freestyle battles, and invented some of the staple phrases in MCing. The group performed at Disco Fever in the Bronx beginning in 1978. Cowboy created the term &#8220;Hip hop&#8221; while teasing a friend who had just joined the US Army, by scat singing the words &#8220;hip/hop/hip/hop&#8221; in a way that mimicked the rhythmic cadence of marching soldiers.</p>
<p>Grandmaster Flash and the Furious Five were signed to Bobby Robinson&#8217;s Enjoy Records and in 1979 released the classic &#8220;Superrappin&#8217;&#8221;. They later signed to Sugar Hill Records and released numerous singles, gaining a gold disc for &#8220;Freedom,&#8221; and also toured. The classic &#8220;The Adventures of Grandmaster Flash on the Wheels of Steel&#8221;, released in 1981 was the best display of Flash&#8217;s skills (combining elements of Blondie&#8217;s &#8220;Rapture,&#8221; Michael Viner&#8217;s Incredible Bongo Band&#8217;s &#8220;Apache,&#8221; Queen&#8217;s &#8220;Another One Bites the Dust&#8221; and Chic&#8217;s &#8220;Good Times&#8221;. It also marked the first time that record scratching had been actually recorded on a record. The group&#8217;s most significant hit was &#8220;The Message&#8221; (1982), which was produced by in-house Sugar Hill producer Clifton &#8220;Jiggs&#8221; Chase and featured session musician Duke Bootee. Other than Melle Mel, no members of the group actually appear on the record. Rahiem lip-synced Duke Bootee&#8217;s vocal in the music video. &#8220;The Message&#8221; went platinum in less than a month. In 1982, Flash appeared in the movie &#8220;Wild Style&#8221; and sued Sugar Hill over the non-payment of royalties. The group split between Flash and Mel before disintegrating entirely. Flash, Kid Creole and Rahiem signed to Elektra Records and continued on as simply &#8220;Grandmaster Flash&#8221; while Mel and the others continued on as &#8220;Grandmaster Melle Mel &#038; the Furious Five.&#8221; In 1984, Mel released a 12&#8243; single, &#8220;White Lines (Don&#8217;t Don&#8217;t Do It)&#8221; which went on to become one of his signature songs. Although frequently credited on the records, Flash doesn&#8217;t actually appear on &#8220;The Message&#8221;, &#8220;White Lines (Don&#8217;t Do It)&#8221;, or many of the other Furious Five songs (if you don&#8217;t hear scratching on a track, then Flash isn&#8217;t on it). Mel notably appeared on Chaka Khan&#8217;s &#8220;I Feel for You&#8221; becoming the first rapper ever to win a Grammy Award for &#8220;Record of the Year&#8221;. He also appeared in the film &#8220;Beat Street&#8221; performing &#8220;Beat Street Breakdown&#8221; in the grand finale. Grandmaster Flash and The Furious Five reformed in 1987 for a charity concert, and in 1988 to release an album that did poorly. Melle Mel closed out the decade by winning two more Grammy awards for his work with Quincy Jones. There was another reunion, of a kind, in 1994, although Cowboy died in 1989.</p>
<p>Grandmaster Flash has a clothing line, &#8220;G.Phyre&#8221;, and has signed a deal with Doubleday who will publish his memoirs. He hosts a show on Sirius Satellite Radio &#038; he was recently presented with the BET &#8220;I Am Hip Hop&#8221; Icon award.</p>
<p>Melle Mel (now known as Mele Mel) has a clothing line with Sedgwick &#038; Cedar. He released the children&#8217;s book/CD/DVD &#8220;Portal In The Park&#8221; in November 2006 and he released his first ever solo album &#8220;Muscles&#8221; on January 30, 2007. The first single and music video is &#8220;M3 (The New Message)&#8221;, released on the 25th anniversary of &#8220;The Message&#8221;.</p>
<p>Grandmaster Flash and the Furious Five were the first hip-hop/rap group ever inducted into the Rock &#038; Roll Hall of Fame on March 12, 2007 by Jay-Z. In 2008, he remixed the single &#8220;Into the Galaxy&#8221; by the Australian group, Midnight Juggernauts.</p>
<p>It has been said that &#8220;his pioneering mixing skills transformed the turntable into a true &#8216;instrument&#8217;, and his ability to get a crowd moving has made his DJ sets legendary.&#8221;</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Intro:<br />
On stage, clad in his trademark white, he is impossible to miss. Wireless keyboard in one hand, an ever-ready clutch of his own productions in the other, his live crowd-interacting performances have brought an entirely new experience for club and festival goers worldwide. In 2010 this unequalled approach was reflected in DJ Magazine`s Top 100 chart, when he re-entered its top 50 for a third year running, landing at #34. As a music producer he`s scaled the heights of national charts and with 6 artist albums &#038; compilations released in the last 3 years alone. He is very possibly the most prolific trance musician working today. He is Roger Shah&#8230; </p>
<p>Early History:<br />
Born in Esslingen in southern Germany, Roger started to hit his production stride in 1999, putting out the tracks `Claps`, `The Mission` &#038; `Tides of Time`. In 2003 his `High` release was signed by Virgin Records imprint Nebula. This marked his first non-domestic release and over the course of the next 5 years he inked productions to a range of heavy-hitting trance labels &#8211; Anjunabeats, VANDIT &#038; Black Hole among them. </p>
<p>The Armin Connection:<br />
In 2007 Armin named Shah`s `Who Will Find Me` as his favourite track of that year. Having heard the demo of its follow up, Van Buuren saw significant crossover potential in the track and made contact early in 2008 to ask if Shah would like to collaborate on it. The result was the Chris Jones vocalled `Going Wrong`&#8230; A top 5 smash in The Netherlands national charts, the track went on to become one of the biggest selling trance singles of the year. From there Magic Island Records â€“ Shah`s primary label &#8211; moved from his own stable to that of one of industry-leading Armada Music. </p>
<p>Magic Island Records:<br />
An imprint for both Roger`s own material and that of likeminded producers, Magic Island releases have quickly become fixtures in the CDJs of some of the world`s biggest spinners. Notable up and coming names like Ralph Fritsch, DJ Cosmo, Kim Svard and Walsh &#038; McAuley have all put out productions on the label. In December 2010 it celebrated its 50th release with Kim Svard`s `Manne`s Song`. </p>
<p>`Songbook`:<br />
The quickest produce of the Magic Island/Armada deal was Roger`s first artist album, `Songbook`. Well received by both press and fans alike, it was much praised for its innovative dual club mix and acoustical version approach. Singles taken from it like `Don`t Wake Me Up`, `Going Wrong` &#038; `Who Will Find Me` (a Top 20 ASOT Tune of the Year in 2008) proved to be particularly popular. The follow-up to `Songbook` is currently slated for Q2, 2011. </p>
<p>Live &#038; DJ Performances:<br />
In late 2008 Shah changed his artist name, dropping the `DJ` prefix and revising it to Roger Shah. This move signalled a move away from straightforward DJ sets, which he`d found increasingly inhibiting. Numerous countries around the world have subsequently played host to the performances. Hot-spots like Sydney, Ibiza, Argentina, Poland &#038; India have been rocked, with Roger performing at tent-pole events including the ASOT400, I Love Kiev, Gatecrasher`s NYE &#038; Judgement Sundays. In October of 2010 Shah sold-out a solo, 4000 capacity event for Foro Corona in Mexico, where he played for six hours, incorporating 65 of his tracks and 18 live performances into the night. </p>
<p>Pseudonyms &#038; Side Projects:<br />
In addition to his own-name tracks, Roger has also produced under a myriad of other aliases. Notable among them are his `pka` DJ Shah, High Noon at Salinas, Magic Island &#038; Savannah. Shah is also one half of the Anjunabeats released act Purple Moods, Black Hole project Global Experience and ASOT`s Black Pearl, whose `06 &#8211; `11 spanning singles `Coral Sea`, `Java`, `Bounty Island`, `Rise` &#038; `Discovery` generating much additional interest in Shah`s solo productions. </p>
<p>Sunlounger:<br />
Sunlounger is without doubt Roger`s best known nom de plume. It was under this handle that he released the `Another Day on The Terrace` long-player in 2008. It reached No.1 on Dutch iTunes` `all-music-genres` chart and spawned four singles (`In &#038; Out`, `Aguas Blancas`, `Crawling` &#038; `White Sand`). The project become so celebrated that Roger expanded Sunlounger into a live act &#8211; a performance of which was featured on Armada`s ArminOnly DVD. It was this experience that he credits with being the catalytic point of his move to live Roger Shah performances. In 2009 Roger released the Sunlounger follow-up `Sunny Tales`, with progeny singles included `Catwalk`, `Mediterranean Flower`, `Change Your Mind`. It also contained the much-revered `Lost` &#8211; a track that took the illustrious `Single of 2008` title on the A State of Trance radio show. Most recently his third album outing under the name, `The Beach Side of Light` (released in autumn 2010) brought 12 more sun-kissed tracks to fans, including collaborations with vocalist including Zara Taylor, Inger Hansen &#038; Antonia Lucas. </p>
<p>`Magic Island: Music For Balearic People` − The Compilations:<br />
Roger`s compilation series has so far seen three outings (2007, 2008 &#038; 2010). Encapsulating everything Roger stands for musically, their intrinsically White Island trance sound has sound-tracked an uncountable number of clubbers holidays. Roger typically uses the compilations as first-listen holders for future singles &#038; collaborations with Vol.3 including team-ups with Signum, Leon Bolier and Tenishia. </p>
<p>`Magic Island: Music For Balearic People` − The Radio Show:<br />
Broadcasting weekly, Magic Island &#8211; Music For Balearic People is a 2 hour radio show carried by the famous DI-fm station and is currently being syndicated to many other countries, most recent additions including Mexico and Jordan. Presented by Roger every Friday between 21.00 GMT (22:00 CET), it showcases a combination of melodic trance in the first hour, with the 2nd focusing on Balearic, chillout and Dream trance. </p>
<p>Remixes:<br />
Shah has reworked tracks for legendary vocalists like Sarah McLachlan and Nadia Ali. He`s also remixed tunes for a litany of trance-masters including Tiesto, Armin Van Buuren, Mark Norman, York, Cosmic Gate, Josh Gabriel, Johan Gielen, System F, The Thrillseekers, Solarstone, Three Drives, Matt Darey &#038; Oceanlab. Most recently Roger has rewired Andain`s `Beautiful Things `10` and Richard Durand`s `Always The Sun`.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Biography of Max Graham</p>
<p>Producer and composer, Max Graham, is a multi-talented artist who has wowed club goers around the world and gained the respect of his peers with his diverse, but distinctive blend of dance music. Through incredible skills and his intense work ethic, Max has risen from humble beginnings to become a worldwide recognized name. Max is currently enjoying success in the UK charts, with his smash hit, Owner of a Lonely Heart and in clubland worldwide with his vocal hit I Know You’re Gone featuring Jessica Jacobs.</p>
<p>With talents across the musical spectrum, Max is probably best known for his DJ skills. While the press has tried to pigeonhole him, Max’s sound remains indefinable. He has the rare ability to refreshingly combine pure house music with his own favourite tracks from dance music genres such as: progressive, techno, trance, disco and beyond. Max’s trademark is a roller coaster ride of funky basslines, energetic rhythms and uplifting melodies. During this ride you are sure to hear a selection, of Max&#8217;s own productions, which include over 30 original tracks and 20 plus remixes.</p>
<p>In 2000, when Max began producing music, he showed potential and promise along with unnervingly solid talent, almost immediately. His first hits Airtight and Tell You propelled Max onto the international scene, but not before he had spent the previous ten years building his skills in the unlikely house music city of Ottawa, Canada. Although Max was born in the UK, he lived in Spain, NYC and LA before settling in Canada in 1989. Starting out as a hiphop/scratch DJ, Max discovered house music in 1994 and was hooked. Within months, he and his friends had set up their own night, which led to the opening of the now legendary Atomic nightclub. Max’s weekly 6-hour sets, at Atomic, were pivotal in Canada’s dance music evolution. </p>
<p>Early highlights of Max’s career include being invited to mix the fourth installment of the legendary Transport mix CD series. The success of Transport and the subsequent world tour, in 2001, led to Max being voted #23 in DJMag’s coveted Top 100 DJs poll, the highest new entry that year. </p>
<p>After touring heavily for two years, Max took some time off, in 2003, to reflect on the music scene and his place within it. “Things were mad during those two years, I was being booked to play trance clubs when I don’t play trance… I was feeling disjointed and slightly out of control, flying from gig to gig without taking the time to make sure I was making the right decisions.” Feeling uninspired by the direction the scene was going, Max felt he needed time away to reset and rediscover his passion for music. </p>
<p>A trip to Southeast Asia and his relocation to Montréal was all that Max needed to regain his creativity and inspiration. He returned to producing, in 2004, with a new sound and a fresh outlook on music. Max’s new found energy translated into what is shaping up to be his most prolific year to date. In addition to his worldwide hit, Owner of a Lonely Heart, Max has original material coming out on his own label, Shinemusic, including the vocal hit, I Know You’re Gone, and Time &#038; Again. Industry leader, Sander Kleinenberg, is also releasing a pair of Max’s original compositions on his label, Little Mountain Recordings. Max is currently working on remixes for heavyweights Bodyrockers and newcomer Leah Woods, the daughter of Ronnie Woods. This summer also sees the release of Max’s new mix CD for DMC. The DMC Mixmag Live series showcases the talents of the best DJ’s in the business.</p>
<p>Max’s rigorous work ethic and uncompromised love for music has afforded him the time to both tour the world weekly and have a prolific production career. As one of the new breed of DJ’s that transcends the current media created trends, he has secured himself an even brighter future.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>: Venue :</p>
<p>HYDE</p>
<p>2 &#8211; 3/Fl Lyndhurst Tower, 1 Lyndhurst Terrace, Central, Hong Kong</p>
<p>John Digweed Biography</p>
<p>If you’re not an avid follower of dance music but are tuned into popular culture at all you’ve likely experienced music touched by the hands of John Digweed. Originally hailing from England but having clearly arrived on the global scene nearly a decade ago, John has long since cemented his name in the pages of dance music history. His list of achievements is groundbreaking to say the least.</p>
<p>Highlights would be the first proper dj mix compilation (“Renaissance”, done with Sasha), being the first British dj to hold a residency at what was then the world’s most well known club in NYC (Twilo, also with Sasha) as well as having remixed tracks by Danny Tenaglia, Underworld and New Order.</p>
<p>John Digweed is a DJ&#8217;s DJ. The beauty of what he does lies in just how different he really is from his contemporaries. From his early beginnings in Hastings, England at the age of 15 in the blossoming scene of acid house to the apex of the international dj&#8217;ing world, he has created and maintained a level of integrity that is the benchmark for both dj’s and producers globally. In fact, he has reached the very top of his profession, being voted #1 in a voter&#8217;s poll by DJ magazine in 2001. John Digweed has become the people’s choice while maintaining his longstanding presence in underground dance culture. His popularity as both a dj and a person seems to have no limits, but his efforts transcend dj&#8217;ing alone, he is as much a producer and promoter. His moniker “Bedrock” is actually three things: a record label, a promotions company and a studio production partnership (with Nick Muir).</p>
<p>His management and creative direction for the Bedrock record label has helped launch the careers of Danny Howells (with Dick Trevor as Science Department), Jimmy Van M, Chris Fortier and Phil Thompson (Moonface). He has had the vision and creative insight to seek out mixes and remixes from artists as varied as Rui Da Silva, POB, Freelance Icebreakers and the Second Hand Satellites. The label has effectively served as a foundation for artistic expression and a medium for creative output, allowing underground artists to break through to a much wider audience. To have a record released on Bedrock serves as the global stamp of production quality, ingenuity and integrity for producers worldwide.</p>
<p>In fact, the name John Digweed is synonymous with quality, ingenuity and integrity. From the nights he has either created or been a part of (Bedrock, Northern Exposure, Renaissance) to his world renowned mix cd&#8217;s (Renaissance, Global Underground, Northern Exposure, Communicate and Bedrock) he has consistently produced characteristic products that stay in demand, himself included. Even with all of his global traveling he has still been able to hold down two monthly Bedrock residencies in both London (Heaven) and Brighton (The Beach).</p>
<p>As one half of Bedrock the production duo he has landed two tracks in the top 40 (“Heaven Scent” and “For What You Dream Of”) the latter of which made it into the hit movie “Trainspotting”. He has even tried a bit of acting himself (&#8220;Groove&#8221;). He and Nick Muir as Bedrock the production team also recently scored a Hollywood film (“Stark Raving Mad”).</p>
<p>His Kiss100 radio show is quickly coming up on its second year as one of the most successful dance music shows in all of England with internet broadcasts to all of the world. It has achieved a near cult status with listeners trading cd’s and mp3’s of the various broadcasts across the internet. John shares his platform weekly by bringing in worldwide guest dj’s.<br />
As a person John&#8217;s lack of pretense is enveloped in imagination and invention. Good reason for John being one of the most respected, analyzed and imitated dj&#8217;s in the world. Digweed is both solid and durable with unyielding precision. His sinuous dj&#8217;ing and production sound has become its own convincing dance ethic. He is centered to the principles of life, living and friends in such a way that he generates an aura of self-explanatory excitement and enthusiasm. Without heroic pretensions his sets are filled with moodiness and musical mystery but held down with a punchy distinctiveness and earthly rhythm. Always emanating a sense of boundlessness he overlaps dream events that spill into reality with an enormous certainty.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Lee Rous and Andy Gardner, aka Plump DJs, have been performing and producing together since meeting in the late 1990’s. Since the start of their career they have been avid pioneers of diverse electronic music, smashing into the early breaks scene and since then, keeping the electro, house and bass music fields supplied with their ever-evolving beats.</p>
<p>They truly cemented their status as industry heavyweights through the success of still legendary releases such as ‘A Plump Night Out’ and ‘Eargasm’, which in turn led to the run of their epic Eargasm and Headthrash parties at London clubbing institution, Fabric.</p>
<p>As artists they have developed their unique sound through the recently formed Grand Hotel Records imprint. A platform through which to not only release their own productions, Grand Hotel will showcase work from their endless list of collaborators and protégés, at all times supplying only the highest calibre output to their music hungry fanbase.</p>
<p>In between the release of recent Grand Hotel tracks, including Boomer and Light Fantastic, Plump DJs have found time to remix the likes of huge international heavyweights Deadmau5, Loops of Fury and Stanton Warriors. This dedicated studio time has resulted in their tracks played out by none other than Carl Cox, Moby, Crookers, Zinc, Kissy Sell Out, Zane Lowe and more, with stellar feedback flowing in from all directions.</p>
<p>Having already ticked off sell-out shows across the UK, Europe, Asia and Australia in recent months, the Plump DJs 2011 gig schedule is filling up at pace. The summer will see them playing at the UK’s biggest festivals, including Glastonbury, Secret Garden Party and Beatherder, with further international dates spanning the year.</p>
<p>After the astounding success of their Grand Hotel Records launch party at London’s XOYO in February, you can expect much more of the same. Round two is coming up the venue on May 14th with a line-up boasting Boy 8 Bit, Bowski and Reset! maintaining little doubt the Grand Hotel Records parties are going to become an unmissable event series for dedicated electronic music followers</p>

<p>It’s taken John O’Callaghan just 5 short years to outrun his ‘next big thing’ tag and move over to the A-list fast-track. A masterful spinner, his unique blend of trance, coupled with an exacting, pin-point precise mixing style has seen him power up the DJ rankings. In the summer of 2008 the gifted 27 year old spun his first Radio 1 Essential Mix and, in the course of the year, was one of only 4 trance DJs to do so. In the 2007 Top 100 chart, John was marked out as the man to watch by no less than 5 DJs. 12 months later he duly delivered on their predictions, entering at No.60 on the 2008 countdown. Last year he picked up the ‘Best Producer’ and ‘Best DJ’ trophies at the Irish Dance Music Awards; decisively conquered the notoriously-competitive dance-testing ground of Ibiza and became the first Irishman to play Trance Energy. In 2009 he stands at the threshold of dance superstardom</p>

<p>Darren Emerson is one of the most influential figures in dance music, with a 17 year career that has seen him work with everyone from Depeche Mode to Jamie Cullum. His success is evident in the numerous million-selling hit albums and singles he has been a part of and his<br />
stunning DJ skills. When he turned 18, Rick Smith invited him to become the third member of techno band Underworld. During his time with Underworld, the band released three albums and sold over a million albums worldwide.<br />
Emerson also emerged as a much sought-after remix talent, with remixes for such diverse acts as The Chemical Brothers, and Björk. Darren parted ways with Underworld in 2000 and is now concentrating more on his solo career as a DJ and remixer, and also a label owner.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Matt Darey has been one of the pioneers of trance since its early beginnings in 1994 with the release of his first (Goah Trance) record &#8220;Li Kwan &#8211; Point zero&#8221; one of Oakenfolds pinnacle tracks. Since then the Matt Darey style has been a major influence on the next generation of trance producers such as Michael Woods (Who was trained by Matt), Above and Beyond, Darren Tate, Neo and Ferina&#8230;&#8230;.etc. </p>
<p>&#8220;I started off making music back at School when I hooked up with my friend Jamie White. We formed a live four piece band, I was the singer Jamie played keys and we wrote most of the songs together. Fortunately there are no known surviving copies of the tunes we made!!!!! After a couple of years I went off to do a Degree in Marketing and Jamie went off to live in Australia. It was around 1992 when I started to get into the rave scene in the U.K. There was a budding Drum and bass scene in my home town Leicester&#8230;&#8230; I got right on board and started to make mad breakbeat tunes. I didn&#8217;t really attend my degree classes much over three years. I knew it was just a way to delay getting a real job while I decided what I wanted to do in life. It was only in the last few months of the final year of my Degree that it dawned on me&#8230;&#8230;..shit&#8230;&#8230;Final Exams&#8230;..Argggghhhhhhh!!!!! Each student had to do a final year thesis on a ficticious product. The only way I was gonna pass my Degree was to excel at this so I decided to make a real product and do what I love most&#8230;&#8230;&#8230; I called it &#8220;The Marketing of a Rave record&#8221;. I got a student loan and pressed up a thousand copies of my track &#8220;Overdose&#8221;. I went round loads of record shops and raves giving out promo&#8217;s and selling copies and within two weeks I&#8217;d sold the lot. There was a bit of a buzz going on from the copies I&#8217;d sold so I convinced a Distributer to stock it, borrowed some more money and pressed and sold another few thousand. I knew that from now on I wanted to make tunes. </p>
<p>About the same the same time Jamie&#8217;s Australian visa ran out. He only went over there back packing and landed himself a massive record deal. Even so, the goverment threw him out of the country so it never got off the ground. Within a couple of weeks of him coming back to the U.k we started making tunes again and sent off demo&#8217;s to all the rave labels at the time. The day before the BPI awards we set of to London to follow up our demo&#8217;s. Just by chance we were sitting in the office of a very small record label playing our demo tape when some big shot from New York&#8217;s Sire Records called Seymour Stien (the man who signed Madonna) rang the guy in the office. </p>
