Dj Chameleon:- Artist Cv
Age 25, born in west England and lived in london since 1998. I have been Dj'ing trance and ambient music for 10 years and my passion for music only grows stonger as time goes by. I have been a groover on the London Psychedelic scene since 1996 and am currently involved in some of the leading events on the scene,such as the Synergy Project @SE1 and an event I co-produce- called Kailas @Studio 33, Vauxhall.
I started fiddling around with dex and dance music when I was at school studying for my A'Levels, and as soon as one of my close friends played me some trance on his walkman (Green Nuns of the Revolution,if i remember correctly)- I was hooked. I had a clear vision that this was going to be an exiting journey of sonic mystery and bliss. 10 years later I am still on that same buzz and the gigs only get better..
In the summer of '97 I worked and played at the first Boom festival, because after 18 years of conditioning and education - a psychedelic holiday was much needed! This was the first festival i had ever been to and it really showed me the true nature of collective celebration, being outdoors with big soundsystems in a magical forest and the most amazing crowd of people I had ever had the pleasure of partying with, it was surely a major turning point in my life. This was the summer where I went from nearly joining the army, to dropping everything after a lifechanging LSD trip and deciding to move to London and start studying sound engineering, with a view to also learning how to produce music. So over the last 5 years I have been writing my own brand of dub, world, elektro and psytrance musix. And now, 8 years on I find myself deeply immersed within the London creative scenes, including the film industry where i have managed to get some work as a sound recordist on a couple a feature films that are due for release early next year,look out for "Rolling With the Nines" and "Played"..
Since that crazy summer of '97, I have Dj'd trance at numerous events in London and Europe, to name but a few:- The Warp Experience @the Drome, Mellout @Subterranea, Sola Luna in Greece,Synergy Project in london, Boom Festival in Portugal, Samothraki Dance Festival in Greece, Omni Festival in Spain,Kailas-London, and many other more underground events in the Uk.
To make my journey even more surprising; last summer I was invited to become a Dj for one of the oldest trance record labels in existance - Dragonfly Records, so having spent the last 10 years listening to their music it was a real honour to be invited on board as one of their artists,and subsequently playing for the chillout side of the label also- liquid Sound Design.. All very Exciting!
So here we are, 2005, possibly the first year in my life where I have managed to be busy right from the word go, and we are already in the midst of another summer of madness, time really flies by wen u fill it with the "3P's" ( Produce, Promote and Party!). This summer I am looking forward to playing at the Wingmaker party on the 18th June, Glastonbury and the Glade festivals. And who knows, maybe coming soon to a random party near you!..
One Love
