Dr. Dubplate - How to Build a Music Brand That Supports Artists & Shapes Culture!
Podcast Overview: In this conversation, Will Clarke and Yanis aka Dr. Dubplate discuss the evolution of the UK dance music scene, the influence of iconic venues like Plastic People, and the challenges faced by smaller venues in the current climate.

Who Is Dr Dubplate: Be it viral moments during DJ sets or breaking down barriers for the new generation with his label ec2a, Dr Dubplate and the UK’s new underground run closely alongside one another. Dr Dubplate’s entry into dance music came as a teenager. Heavily influenced by his father – then manager of London institution Plastic People – he grew up absorbing Afrobeat, Rare Groove, House and Funk. Working the cloakroom on Thursday nights at Plastic People he was exposed to residencies and performances from some of the most esteemed artists – Theo Parrish, Four Tet and Floating Points to name a few- which paved the way for an education in and appreciation of UK Sound system and club culture. Dr Dubplate’s DJ stripes were earned in Bristol, as promoter and resident for party series Piff where he played alongside artists such as Mall Grab, DJ Seinfeld and Hodge. In 2020 he established ec2a – a more personal project referencing his inspiration and upbringing. Emerging during the height of the new UK Garage scene, Yanis’s debut as Dr Dubplate soon followed. With label and DJ projects running side by side, a following quickly formed, leading to bookings up and down the country when clubs re-opened, and a breakthrough year in 2021. A memorable headline B2B set with Interplanetary Criminal for Keep Hush, at their sold out summer festival, catapulted him into the eyes and ears of post-pandemic clubbers as did an ec2a Fabric RM3 takeover later that year. With a rich musical upbringing, it’s no coincidence that Dr Dubplate’s sets reflect his character; a positive, multi-genre taste with gun fingers as part of the blueprint and treating his crowds to everything from Gil Scott Heron to Kwengface, Dubstep to UK Funky and Trap.

The discussion also touches on the need for artists to understand their value in the business and the launch of a new platform aimed at supporting artists in their development.
Who Is Huxley: Huxley aka Michael Dodman is one of the hardest working producers and DJs out there. Originally weaned on a classic British diet of house, garage and techno, he’s continually buffing his sound via increasingly high profile DJ sets and a steady string of well received singles and EPs. Huxley has plunged his beats deeper and wider to incorporate more of his influences through releases for some of electronic music’s best loved imprints including Tsuba, Morris Audio, Fear of Flying, Hypercolour and 20:20 Vision.

His approach to the skilled art of DJing is unorthodox and unique, expect hypnotic journeys accompanied by his signature produced stripped back RAW grooves with hard kicks, trembling sub baselines, sharp synths accompanied by soulful vocal cuts. With all this being said it’s no surprise that his productions receive regular support from the heavy hitters including Jamie Jones, Richy Ahmed, Solardo, Dennis Cruz, Reelow, PAWSA and Michael Bibi to name just a few.

The duo's breakthrough track was undoubtedly 2012's iTunes Dance Single Of The Year 'Flo Jam'.

A stamp of quality, that makes for an instantly recognisable 'Dusky' sound.

Azzecca - Becoming A Fulltime DJ & Producer
Podcast Overview: Azzecca & Will discuss the fame & lifestyle of successful DJs, online harassment & trolling, the pressure & expectations of the music industry & the adjustments & challenges of full time DJing.
Who Is Azzecca: Chicago’s Azzecca brings techno/house/dark dance to her high energy but thoughtfully curated sets: ‘I personally love the juxtaposition between euphoria and darkness in music.’ In less than a year, after her now 8.5mil+ streamed ‘Other Side’ fully launched the Chicago DJ/producer/musician, she was Beatport’s Radar artist of the month, landed Radio 1 support from Pete Tong in the form of spins and a 30-minute mix, along with spins from Danny Howard and Sarah Story, had a first run of summer festivals like HARD Summer, Neon Garden @ EDC Vegas, Electric Forest, headlined legendary venues like Stereo Montreal, Halcyon SF… while releasing on labels across the spectrum of underground sounds from Adam Ten's Maccabi House to Gorgon City’s REALM, delivering a red-hot remix of TIBASKO’s ‘Still Rushing’, alongside expanding her Chicago ‘Dirty Disco’ female-focused events.
And the only way’s been up ever since, with major gigs at Brooklyn Mirage, CRSSD Festival’s Proper NYE, Seismic Dance Event, Sziget Festival (HU), Sound LA, Portola, Club 04 Haifa, Splash House, Warehouse Project, fabric, Printworks, Floyd Miami, It’ll Do Dallas… sharing a stage with Jamie Jones, CamelPhat, Adam Ten, Gerd Janson, ANNA, Charlotte De Witte, Overmono, Jon Hopkins, DJ Tennis, Seth Troxler and more. As for releases, labels like Maccabi House, REALM, Higher Ground, Another Rhythm have snapped up gems like ‘Ego Death’, ‘Other Side’, ‘Aerial Phenomenon’, ‘Forget’, ‘U Fool’ and ‘Tell That Boy’.
Azzecca’s genre-bending productions are perfect for massive club systems. ‘My sound is always dark and sexy, but I experiment with different genres and vibes a lot. My sets are dynamic, I love to surprise the crowd. I start my own tracks with a bassline, a lead or a vocal sample, I love to use funky arps. My diverse musical tastes give me extreme versatility as a DJ/producer, resulting from early influences like the harsh but emotional elements of electro rock.’
Azzecca aka Allie DeCastris cites early influences as Massive Attack, Portishead, Nightmares on Wax, Little Dragon, Bjork, Pink Floyd, and ‘I’ve always been massively into Bristolian electro rock sounds.’ Born to a musical family and attending rock concerts from an early age, she grew up playing flute, bass piano and piano. She began DJing and production as hobbies, until COVID’s enforced re-think started her DJing for small parties winning attention from promoters, while Diplo’s Higher Ground dropped her first single and EP, and she launched her ‘Dirty Disco’ nights.
‘Dirty Disco’, still ongoing and growing, are female-focused parties she began in Chicago clubs, to fill a need she had identified for spaces where women could dress up and feel good without unwelcome attention.
As her career spirals ever skywards, Azzecca's targets include conquering new territories, pushing musical boundaries, and touring Dirty Disco to continue giving a platform to emerging underground artists she loves.

Moby - 30 Years of Creating Art, Punk Culture & Hit Records
Podcast Overview: Moby & Will discuss his 30 years in the industry, where young creatives go nowadays, not focussing on selling out DJ tours & his journey with his mental health.
Who is Moby: Richard Melville Hall, 11 September 1965, New York, USA. A New York DJ, recording artist, Christian, vegan and Philosophy graduate. Moby is so nicknamed because of the fact that he can trace his ancestry to the author of the famous whaling tale.
This is by no means the only interesting aspect of his idiosyncratic artistic life. He refuses to travel anywhere by car because of the environmental considerations, and generally displays little of the public anonymity that is the creed of the underground DJ. In 1991, he took the Twin Peaks theme, under the guise of "Go", into the UK Top 10. Although that appealed to the more perverse natures of both mainstream and club audiences, the release of "I Feel It"/"Thousand" in 1993 was yet more bizarre. The latter track was classified by The Guinness Book Of Records as the fastest single ever, climaxing at 1,015 bpm. It was typical of Moby's playful, irreverent attitude to his work. In his youth he was a member of hardcore punk outfit the Vatican Commandos, and even substituted as singer for Flipper while their vocalist was in prison.He has brought these rock 'n' roll inclinations to bear on the world of dance music: at the 1992 DMC/Mixmag Awards ceremony he trashed his keyboards at the end of his set. His introduction to dance music began in the mid-80s: "I was drawn to it, I started reading about it, started hanging out in clubs. For me house music was the synthesis of the punk era." He collected cheap, second hand recording equipment, basing himself in an old factory/converted prison in New York's Little Italy district. The albums issued by New York dance label Instinct collect the artist's early work. Ambient comprised unissued cuts from 1988-91, composed of barely audible atmospheric interludes. Moby signed to leading independent Mute Records in 1993, and the following year released "Hymn", a transcendental religious techno odyssey, distinguished by a 35-minute ambient mix and a Laurent Garner remix. The track was included on his eclectic major label debut, Everything Is Wrong. His own remix catalogue includes Brian Eno, LFO ("Tan Ta Ra"), Pet Shop Boys, Erasure ("Chorus"), Orbital ("Speed Freak"), Depeche Mode and even Michael Jackson. He moved away from his dance base in 1996 with the thrash rock of Animal Rights, and in turn sounded more like Johnny Rotten.
His "James Bond Theme' debuted at UK number 8 in November 1997. The attendant I Like To Score was an uneasy experiment in soundtrack work. Another change of style was apparent on 1999"s Play, a superb album on which several tracks were based around sampled field recordings made by folklorist Alan Lomax in the earlier part of the century. Play became a remarkable sleeper hit, thanks in the main to the licensing of every track on the album for use in advertisements. Moby repeated the Play formula to lesser effect on 18.

Who is wAFF: From his roots in the clubland underground of Leeds and Hull, DJ-producer wAFF has gone on to become globally renowned. He has earnt widespread respect. His schedule is relentless but he doesn’t cut corners. He’s the only British artist who’s recorded for all three European techno hubs, Sven Väth’s Cocoon, Adam Beyer’s Drumcode and Loco Dice’s Desolat.

This summer, for instance, his Ibiza gigs range from his residency at Paradise at DC-10 to Elrow at Amnesia (and the rest of the world!). He’s DJing everywhere, from recent Space in Miami to festival slots at Glastonbury, Hideout, Sziget and, yes, the original Nevada Desert madhouse, Burning Man. Now based in London, much further back wAFF kickstarted the underground dance scene in his native Hull and achieved success with his Koala parties in Leeds, providing a widely respected initial springboard to take things forward. He’s been part of Jamie Jones’s Paradise crew since their first 2012 season at DC-10, and also recorded regularly for Jones’s Hot Creations imprint with tunes such as his Hot Creations debut ‘Rainbows’, 2016’s ‘Sick Pleasure’ and ‘Kidney Punch’, and 2015 monster ‘Fat Gash’, all played by DJs ranging from Patrick Topping to Marco Carola. For Cocoon he recorded the Freeks EP, which contained the much-hammered hypno-thumping classic, ‘Groover’, while Drumcode released his urgent nine minute techno-tinted floor-stormer ‘VibrationZ’.

Carl Cox & Christopher Coe - How To Evolve The Techno Scene
Podcast Overview: Christopher, Carl & Will discuss signing artists, the impact of covid on the industry, finding good music & the live electronic scene.
Who is Christopher Coe: Christopher Coe is an Irish born, Australian-raised live artist and techno producer from Melbourne. Coe also partners with Carl Cox in their live electronic label Awesome Soundwave. From 2014 to 2016 he designed, built and ran the ID&T/Beatport studio in Amsterdam where he coached new artists and collaborated with many established artists. He now works with Carl as his co-producer and engineer in the studio that Carl commissioned him to create in 2017. Coe has produced and released his own work over many years, previously as Digital Primate, and continues to perform both in Australia and live around the world from Creamfields UK to Fabrik Madrid, DC10 Ibiza, to the huge Amsterdam Dance Event for Awakenings.
Who Is Carl Cox: One of the most charming DJs in the business. A musical ambassador and a veteran of acid house, a champion of techno, a dance music pioneer, label owner, King of Ibiza – you name it, Carl’s been there and done it, never losing sight of his passions – playing music, breaking tunes and celebrating life. Carl formed his own label, Intec Records, in 1999, scoring a series of underground hits and enjoying eight years at the forefront of electronic music. After its closure in 2006, Carl was still inundated with new music, finally deciding to re-launch the label as Intec Digital in 2010, and it’s been a triumphant return, thanks to exclusives from some of the biggest names in techno. Intec Digital was also the home for Carl’s 6th studio album, ‘All Roads Lead To the Dancefloor', released to critical acclaim in 2011. And of course Carl’s name cannot be mentioned without Ibiza. His legendary Ibiza residency at Space came to an end in 2016, after an unbelievable 15 consecutive years. Since 2001 Carl helped establish Space as one of the biggest clubs in the world. With carefully thought out line ups, and as much emphasis on new talent as big names, Carl always strived to keep his night at the forefront of Ibiza clubbing making it one of the most successful residencies in Ibiza history. Starting out in 2001 with just 6 nights, his residency grew and adapted as the club did, so for Carl it was only right to end his residency as Space itself closed its doors. And what a way to go out. Carl’s final 15 week season was his biggest ever, with every single night selling out, heralded by fans and critics alike as a triumphant finale to a piece of dance history.

Todd Edwards - From Creating UK Garage to Collaborating With Daft Punk
Podcast Overview: Will & Todd discuss cliques in the music industry, exploring as an artist vs the pressure of being successful, the power of social media & the role of promoters in gigs plus much more.
Who Is Todd Edwards: Todd Edwards is a house and garage veteran whose signature productions have lit up dancefloors for decades, and whose collaborations with Daft Punk sit in the record collections of millions. Edwards’ music has been recognized as a major influence on the nascent UK Garage genre in the United Kingdom in the mid 1990s. He became known for his intensive sampling and remixing technique that involves “cross-hatching brief snatches of vocals into a melodic-percussive honeycomb of blissful hiccups” as described by critic Simon Reynolds. Used both on his solo albums and on his remixes for other artists, this complex vocal sampling technique in some cases renders the original track almost unrecognizable. With remixes numbering in the hundreds, some of the artists Edwards has remixed include Wildchild, St. Germain, Benjamin Diamond, Justice, Klaxons and Dimitri From Paris. Edwards co-produced and performed vocals on the Daft Punk song “Face to Face” from the album Discovery and he worked again with them, co-writing, co-producing and contributing vocals to the song, “Fragments Of Time” from their 2013 album Random Access Memories, for which he won a Grammy.

Chris Liebing - The Expectations of a Club DJ & Compromising in Your Career
Podcast Overview: Chris discusses mountain biking, the art of getting tattoos, the expectations of DJs & compromising in his career
Who Is Chris: Whether as label head, podcast curator, DJ or producer, he continues to challenge himself and his audience to explore new realms in the electronic world. And often ahead of the curve, too, from the early, hard-edged and loopy 90s sound which is back en vogue today, through his more stripped-back turn of the millennium minimalism and onto the cinematic atmospheres and broader alternative electronica of his latest albums on Mute. It's no stretch to say, then, that Chris Liebing's story is closely connected to the story of techno itself.
Liebing is considered a global techno ambassador, but his ambitious album projects and direct club tracks excite and innovate as much as any new school star. A proudly forward-thinking attitude ensures that is the case as his DJ tools and studio setup constantly evolve. He continues to be an early adopter of emerging technology, too, just as he was with vinyl controllers, Traktor and when leading the way with full hybrid/live DJing.

Victor Calderone & Avision - The Relaunch of Record Label 'Matter' & The Current State of Techno
About Victor:
In 1996, Calderone broke through with his debut solo single "Give It Up," which lived on top of the Billboard Dance Music charts for a week. Throughout the '90s and aughts, Calderone was known for his intuitive and original club remixes for pop artists like Madonna, Sting, Beyoncé, Depeche Mode, and Whitney Houston. The fruitful era also saw him kick off international and statewide residencies that are still going strong over 20 years later. Calderone built a luminous reputation for his sprawling 12-16 hour sets—all-consuming journeys that illustrated his gift for musical storytelling.
About Avision:
Fortunate to grow up around the rich club culture of NYC and influenced by the sounds around him, Avision now finds himself helping to usher in a new wave of techno for the New York scene. His debut album In My Mind has been released on Maceo Plex’s Ellum Audio imprint, which DJ Mag UK has called “an impressive body of work stuffed full of melodic techno and maximal house”. Enjoy x

Scuba - Running A Record Label For 20 Years to Starting A Podcast
Podcast Overview: Scuba discussed the ins and outs of running Hotflush Recordings for the last 20 Years. We dove in to his podcast "Not A Diving Podcast" and the changes he has experienced through his career.
Who is Scuba: More than a decade into his storied career, Paul Rose aka Scuba is one of the most vital figures in electronic music. It remains that way thanks to his constant musical evolutions and always contrary perspectives. Five full length albums, a varied collection of EPs, and commercially available mix albums for Ostgut Ton, DJ Kicks and Fabric all prove this. They range from visceral bass and techno affairs to jubilant main room offerings and, more recently, take in a return to more percussive, increasingly introspective sounds such as his 2018 Caibu long player debut as SCB. As a DJ he is just as singular, and his entry into the fabric series proves that across 42 seamlessly stitched together tracks which take you to the heart of a foggy dance floor. Rose’s label also continues to plot a line between gritty dance floor 12”s and long lasting album experiences from a carefully curated selection of contemporary artists. Predicting the next step for this enigmatic artist is a fool’s errand, then, but that is what makes him so compelling.

Sam Divine
A born entertainer with a burning desire to play music to people around the world, Sam Divine’s enigmatic sets are an effortless schooling in pure, unadulterated house.
From her early days as the sole member of the Defected street team in Ibiza to fronting their radio show and now headlining some of the world’s biggest clubs and festivals, The First Lady of Defected, has become an intrinsic part of the UK house music scene.
The seeds of Sam’s DJ career can be traced back to a pair of belt drive turntables and a battered Numark mixer set up in her Mum’s shed; a pirate radio show broadcast from her bedroom using ‘borrowed’ equipment from the local college and MSN Messenger, and time spent expanding her musical knowledge working at Spin Central in her hometown of Weston-super-Mare and Chemical Records in Bristol.

Zevi G
Zevi G, born in 1984, is a prolific and steadfast artist who uses his studio to bring unanticipated creations to life. In a world where love, unity and kindness have become a scarce commodity Zevi is determined to make a change using his art and many compelling characters to spread a powerful message.
The artist was never intimidated by his underprivileged and very orthodox upbringing, on the contrary, that became the very essence of his strength and will, to turn his life around and reach others with positive and relevant messages.
Each figure comes with its own personality and features different traits such as the angel with its thin legs and wings, or the soldier with its buff chest. The childlike characters with eyes full of wonder appear as part of a world full of references and emotional memories from the artist’s 456 Land, bringing its message in a non-political vibe, a whisper, as opposed to a shout, but powerful, nonetheless.

MK
Detroit-born Marc Kinchen, known commonly as MK, is one of the rare house producers to consistently innovate as well as achieve significant commercial success throughout his lengthy career, which stretches back to the late '80s. Initially appearing on Detroit labels such as Kevin Saunderson's KMS, he developed a highly unique style that combined the soulfulness of New York-styled garage with the energy of hard techno, as well as intensely cut-up vocal hooks. His work would prove to be a significant influence on New Jersey house deity Todd Edwards, as well as the entire U.K. garage scene. Throughout the '90s he achieved club success with several singles sung by Alana, collected on the 1993 full-length Surrender, as well as countless remixes for other artists, including the Nightcrawlers' seminal "Push the Feeling On," originally released in 1992. During the early 21st century, he worked closely with stars like Will Smith and Pitbull, then returned to house music as interest in his earlier work resurged during the early 2010s. He scored one of his biggest hits with his remix of Storm Queen's "Look Right Through," which topped the U.K. pop charts in late 2013. He then resumed releasing original tracks, scoring hits such as 2017's "17."

VONDA7
From VONDA7 - I am VONDA7. I grew up in the city of Poznan in Poland, where I started my first music adventures with hip-hop and R&B. Soon after that I discovered french house, Gigolo Records and Tresor showcases. I later moved to London where I got into psychedelic indietronica / synthpop, garage, UK house and caribbean music. After that I spent one year in Amsterdam immersing in new disco & melodic house. Eventually I moved to Berlin which I can call home now where I first experienced the more hippie scene only to come back to where it all started and learnt even more about the roots of Berlin, Detroit and Chicago electronic music culture.
After listening to her new album 'Let Go' I had to get her on the podcast. Enjoy x
