The first Isle of Man Hard Dance Label is born! Michael Fyles rise to the top of the Hard Dance Charts has not gone unnoticed too. 
 

Christian began his musical journey way back in the acid house era of 91’ as the rave culture had kicked in over in the UK, The sleepy Isle of Man was woken to this by a night called ‘Theory’ the brainchild of Dj’s Damon Barron and an arm flinging brummie called John Shephard. His role in this was master of ceremonies. Skanking rhymes from the likes of grandmaster flash over rave driven jungle.
 It wasn’t long before the lure of the Technics turntable cast its hypnotic spell with its vinyl eyes, His Passion found.
Christian took to the decks under the moniker Dreamfish (taken from the title of a chill out album by Mixmaster Morris and Peter Namlock)
Fast forward through the nineties and as the Manx club scene blossomed, The Academy and Little Caesars made way for new nights which Dreamfish played or promoted. Electrofresh, Bilng Bling, Atomik Hotdog all chartering the next 10 years of his aim to keep the Island of Mann jumping to new sounds, anything away from conventional was his sonic game plan.
Back to now, and Christian produces and plays under the name Audiowok, a name that suggests his style of play and one that has found its ways onto the airwaves of BBC3 thanks to a radio programme hosted by Andy Kershaw in 2007.
Over the last  couple of year Audiowok has played alongside some of his favourite spinners including James Lavelle. Freestylers, Darren Emerson, Greame Park, Flux Pavilion, Krafty Kuts and Utah Saints at the Courthouse club, and is now working with Electro Indie band Dusty Plankton.

Biography

Trance/Prog Producer & DJ hailing from the Isle of Man. Also one half of Spot On Radio / Promotions - local party hard DJ crew.

Remix releases on Source of Gravity Digital, Mistique Music & Polytechnic Recordings, with many thanks going to Chris Sterio & Steve McGrath for the opportunity. Progressing & developing quite nicely with my sound/techniques & hoping to get a few originals signed fairly soon..


In 2016, Heidi has announced the relaunch of her Jackathon Jams label. After a short hiatus, the first release is a 3-track collaborative EP from DJ T. Vs Emanuel Satie featuring two new productions ‘Break Loose’ and ‘Feeling You’ featuring Joe le Groove, and a remix of ‘Break Loose’ by Kill Frenzy. The EP will be released on 1 April and will be the first Jackathon Jams release distributed via a new deal with !K7. Further releases will be revealed in the spring.

Heidi has worked hard over the past decade to make her mark on the new house and techno music generation. You only have to visit her worldwide brand of Jackathon parties and or listen to her BBC Radio 1 show to experience her passion for music and fiery nature. 

“It’s the way you bring it. If I stood there staring into a laptop and not looking at the crowd once, I could play all the hits and it would sound like shit because I wasn’t interested in it,” Heidi explained to the Independent newspaper in 2011, “I came from the dancefloor, I love dancing, it’s disappointing when you leave without a strong memory from the night, I want to finish it with an explosion.”
 
Her Jackathon parties were inspired by her youthful endeavors into house and techno music. Heidi heard its calls across the water growing up in Windsor, Ontario Canada, just across the border from Detroit. Relocating to London in 2000, she picked up her craft and deep expertise behind the counter first at Koobla Records, and in 2003 Heidi was part of the team that opened up London’s foremost record shop, Phonica.

“I started in 2004, then it kicked off during the summer of 2006. That’s when Get Physical were at their peak and the M.A.N.D.Y guys and DJ.T took me under their wing.“ After a brief stint in Berlin, Heidi was invited in 2008 to do her own BBC Radio ‘In New DJs We Trust’ show on a six month contract. She remains there to this day, now hosting her own ‘Radio 1's Residency’ on Thursday nights. 

“I’m very persistant. When I heard ‘In New DJs We Trust’ was finishing I made a conscious decision to move back to London because I was like “I need to be involved, I need to be as in-their-face as possible and say ‘Look I’m here and I’m dedicated, I want do something’”

In 2009 she started the Jackathon events at various nightspots across the globe. Both platforms allow her to invite her peers and compadres such as Richie Hawtin, Soul Clap, Solomun, Maceo Plex, Nicolas Jaar and Derrick Carter to share stories and special musical moments with her. In 2011 a compilation album of the same name was released on her original home label, Get Physical, and a sublabel called Heidi presents Jackathon Jams was born from its success. The first EP features an all female cast including Maya Jane Coles, Miss Kitten and Tini, but the Jackathon is about energy and unleashing some of that magic created on the dancefloor.

Heidi spends her life immersed in music. She lives and breathes the touring lifestyle, whether its 25,000 person crowds in Latin America or festivals such as Exit ,Global Gathering, Detroit's Movement fest and the infamous cave of fabric in London or Japan’s Womb or holding her own at Jackathon residency strongholds in Ibiza, London, Berlin’s Watergate and Manchester she fits within any destination around the world. Never afraid to fight for what she wants, for Heidi it’s not about right place, right time. She has won through sheer determination and sharing the magic with those she loves at every step. 


“I made the leap of faith into choosing this as a career and putting every last ounce of energy I have into it. I could have flopped on my face but I stuck it out and proved myself to my peers. Every achievement was because I gave 110% of myself, treated everyone with genuine kindness, and sacrificed things in my life that people take for granted.”
