Loveland presenteerde tijdens het Amsterdam Dance Event de officiële DVD van Loveland Festival 2008. Ruim 40 professionals hebben zich tijdens het festival ingezet om de mooiste momenten vast te leggen.
I was born in Chelsea in 1966. My mother was a housewife and my father was a jazz musician. So music was in my veins since birth really! My first musical instrument was a drum at the noisy age of eight.
I didn’t get on well with school, and spent little time there, preferring truancy to chemistry and the music room to the classroom. My uncle had a reggae sound system, so I was always into the one-turntable side of DJing. I must have been around 11 or 12 years old. When I was around 15, a group of friends and myself got together our own little sound system, playing mainly for free at little parties. When I was 20 I auditioned for Phase 1 radio, who were one of the leading pirates at the time of the acid house explosion, and I was really excited when I got the slot. I was a real radio DJ !
Before that, my father had given me the first turntable that I ever had; it was a Garrard belt-drive thing, so it was no good for mixing. I didn’t know anything about mixing at that time anyway so I was happy plugging away pretending to be a radio DJ, with my one Garrard deck. A few years later it broke; my then girlfriend, who is now my wife, bought me a Technics 1210. At this point I wanted to learn how to mix. So I traded my favourite leather jacket for a Marantz turntable; it wasn’t great but at least it had a pitch control! I spent endless hours practising by myself until I got it right.
