SE TECHNO GROOVE - 16 Bit Master

Whether he’s taking the roof off a club with his unique selection of deep and tough house music, enchanting a backroom with a genre-bending set of disco, Balearic, rock and hip hop or playing chillout music in a bay in Croatia, Bill Brewster is the man for all occasions.

In a former life, Bill was a punk rocker, a chef and also the co-editor of football magazine When Saturday Comes but has been a record nerd all of his life. He began DJing in the 1980s, but came into his own in the early 1990s, particularly during a two-year stint in New York running DMC’s office, where nights at the Sound Factory and hanging out with Danny Tenaglia gave him the musical grounding you can still hear in his music today. Bill was also one of the founding residents at Fabric in London, a position he held for five years. There are few still playing regularly today that have his dedication, eclecticism and encyclopaedic knowledge of music.

His parallel life is as a writer and with his long-term partner-in-crime Frank Broughton they have written four books together, including the acclaimed Last Night A DJ Saved My Life (latest edition published last July), How To DJ (Properly) and The Record Players. The pair are also behind the legendary DJhistory.com and their party, Low Life, has been running for nearly 30 years. They now spend most of their time on a dinghy moored on
the Rochdale Canal.

He has been working in the industry’s fringes for over 40 years including the running of various labels from Twisted UK and Forensic in the ’90s to Disco Sucks and Anorak in the noughties. Occasionally Bill finds time to secrete himself away in a studio to make music
or cook up edits. And when he’s not doing any of that he has a family and a dog called Mavis to tend to. He is currently working on a secret project involving badgers, GM crops and disco.

BILL BREWSTER | Giant Steps, Hackney, London, Sun 18th February, 2024

LA Nights with DJ Garth

This February, we've been lucky to share a private music mix from world renowned DJ Garth.  We count him as an inspiration as an artist for more than two decades but also as a beloved friend.  Originally born and raised in England, Garth moved to SF in 1990 and was part of the Wicked Sound System group with DJ's Jeno, Markie, and Thomas.  A key player in defining and capturing the underground house music scene in SF, Garth's influence spread near and far through performing, producing and composing music.  This was all in his spare time when he wasn't touring the globe.  Now as a current resident of LA with his family, he still imparts his legacy of classic disco and house via live gigs while also continuing to produce music with his record label Grayhound Recordings.  Here's a link to a peek into Garth's heart and soul via our recent Q&A.

Q:What inspired you to put together these songs for the mix?
A:Whenever I am asked to do a mix I like to create a little back story. I tend to play records like a raconteur tells a story. The Farmers Daughter Hotel has a unique theme. I stay at the hotel and eat at the restaurant Tart. ‘Classic Americana w/an Urban Twist’ comes to mind. I dug through the American Rock n Roll section of my record collection and selected songs that spoke of heading out west, the open road, free love, wind in the hair, all that good stuff.

Q: What was the “story” of the songs pieced together?
A: The Farmers Daughter herself became personalized in the process as the elusive object who will not be tamed. She heads to California, leaving a trail of broken hearts along the highway. Like any good yarn there’s a beginning, a middle and an end. She inspires because ultimately she is her own boss and free as a bird, yet modest and kind to those she encounters.

Q: What are your greatest influences and motivators in life?
A:  Turns out what I Iove about the art of deejaying is also what draws me to the craft of acting, something I have been doing since moving to Los Angeles. It is not about the bells and whistles. It is telling a story, connecting through an honest dialogue or emotion:  holding up a mirror, exposing the soul. If you’re lucky, creating a performance that resonates, blows people away, or makes a difference.

Q:  What would you like “the road that you travel” to look like?
A:  I have had no regrets since leaving England for San Francisco in 1990. I have been blessed as a self sufficient artist the whole time and never had to work a ‘job’. I have a beautiful family and home, inspiring work, great friends and get to travel the world. I have faith in the road ahead although there are no guarantees in life.

Q: What aspects of the FD and/or the brand appeals to you?
A:  It’s an unpretentious, funky, independent, friendly joint. It’s the people!

LA Nights by DJ Garth, Mixed for Farmer's Daughter Hotel

This site is a reflection and in some ways a chronicle of my career in Dance Music .... ALL the mixes are live and mainly all from vinyl .... There are a few which are a mix of Vinyl and CD .... ALL the remixes with the exception of "BREAK FOR LOVE" are from my time as a well known Remixer and Producer. All the ACIDISCOTECH mixes are samples of how I play now in a bar setting although there is some club crossover. ACIDISCOTECH means a mix of sounds and styles and time periods which when combined express the energy  and passion I feel for music ... I FIRMLY BELIEVE IN THE CAPACITY FOR PEOPLE TO OPEN THEIR EARS, MINDS AND HEARTS TO ALL DIFFERENT TYPES OF MUSIC AND ENJOY IT FOR WHAT IT IS .... WITHOUT APPLYING NEGATIVE ENERGY BASED ON WHAT THEY ARE BEING TOLD IS COOL. FUCK POLITICS AND TRENDINESS ... LET'S DANCE !
