N0. 14 RATED DJ IN THE WORLD ON THE
DJ LIST
John Digweed (born as Thomas John Digweed
on 1 January 1967 in Hastings, England) is an English DJ and
record producer.
John Digweed began DJing around age 13.
His breakthrough came in 1993 when he got a gig at the Renaissance
Club in Mansfield after fellow DJ Alexander Coe (aka Sasha)
heard his demo.
Digweed is known for promoting the progressive house sound
that became popular in Europe and North America in the late
1990s and early 2000s. He started the record label Bedrock
Records to further promote the music he was playing at the
time. In addition to starting the Bedrock imprint, he and
friend Nick Muir produce under the Bedrock alias. In his sets,
Digweed is noted for adopting tracks with
new and different styles.
Between 2000 and 2005, Digweed promoted his "Bedrock"
sound with monthly club nights for members and newcomers to
the electronic music scene. He played Thursday nights at Heaven
in London and Friday nights at a smaller club night at The
Beach in Brighton. These nights featured numerous guest DJs
including Phil Thompson, Hernan Cattaneo, and Chris Fortier.
As Digweed's international schedule increased, these events
drew to a close, although occasional reunions are still held
at Heaven. Digweed celebrated 10 years of his Bedrock club
night at Matter, London on 10 October 2008 with a near on
10-hour set.
In addition to Europe, Digweed has enjoyed popularity in
North America. Digweed, along with Sasha, established a monthly
residency at the now defunct New York club Twilo, a residency
that established itself as a key location for the American
electronic music scene. The residency began in 1996 with a
lukewarm reception but grew into one of the most popular club
nights in New York City by the end of its run in 2001. Sasha
and Digweed played at Twilo on the last Friday of every month,
playing sets that lasted between 8 and 12 hours. In early
early 2001, Sasha suffered an ear injury in a car accident
and was unable to play for some time. Digweed continued to
play the time slot by himself until May 2001 when Twilo was
forced to close down.
Digweed DJed as himself in the Greg Harrison's 2000 movie
Groove. Groove tells the story of an all night rave in San
Francisco. John's performance led to one reviewer dubbing
him "the new De Niro".
In early 2002, Digweed underwent a six week country-wide
tour of the United States with Sasha and Jimmy Van M called
Delta Heavy. Promotion of the tour was done by Clear Channel
and attendance reached 85,000. The tour took place in a variety
of venues but was completely self-reliant from a technical
point of view. Sound, lights, and visual setups were brought
along to every gig of the tour. Also in 2002, Digweed created
the soundtrack to the film Stark Raving Mad.
In addition to worldwide touring, Digweed has been broadcasting
a weekly radio show on Kiss 100 in the UK since September
2000, where he provides a personal one hour DJ set, followed
by another one hour set from a guest DJ. Since September 2006,
John Digweed's show has been available on all 3 Kiss radio
stations. The show is now called Transitions and has also
branched off into a series of mix albums released every six
months by Digweed.
2008 saw Digweed and Sasha reuniting for a Spring Club Tour
that once again featured performances all over North America.
Also in 2008, Digweed's music is to be featured in the film
movie adaptation of Irvine Welsh's best-selling novel Ecstasy:
Three Tales of Chemical Romance.
In 2008, he was voted the number 9 DJ in DJ Mag's annual
Top 100 vote. He has featured in the top 10 for the last 10
consecutive years and was voted number one in 2001.
