I started DJing at the early age of 11 for local youth clubs and family parties. In 1988 as I turned 13 the acid house/rave/old skool movement arrived which I fell in love with straight away…

By the age of 15 I was DJing in bars and clubs all over the UK, five nights a week throughout the North West, as far down as Brighton, up to Scarborough, a couple of guest spots in Magaluf and of course my home town of Burnley…

Throughout my journey in DJing I’ve worked alongside some amazing people, fantastic bands and artists as well as some brilliant head lining DJ’s who to this day it was always a pleasure to work with 😊

When it came to the music, wether it was commercial dance, squelchy acid loops, old skool anthems, hedonistic piano drops, phat donk or bounce tracks, club classics or uplifting vocal house breaks… It was always amazing to see the crowds reaction and feel the love as one!

Profile: DJ Cat 

Neil Catlow AKA DJ Cat is a self-taught DJ specialising in Old Skool, Nu Disco and 1980’s Disco. 

Neil rapidly transitioned from a ‘Bedroom DJ’ to playing live gigs, on-line Radio and organising his own events: 

Gigs: 
Vestry, Chorley 
Asylum, Standish 
Golden Lion, Todmorden
Brom Fest, Wigan 
HazzyFest, Haslingden

Radio: 
Euphoria (Mexico) 
Beyond Radio
Ultimate Dance Radio 
Dance Radio London 

Events: 
Welcome to Our House - Mix Factor (Electric Circus, Burnley)
Welcome to Our House - Featuring Anne Savage (Hidden, Burnley)
Welcome to Our House - Old Skool (Smoke (Blue Note), Todmorden) 
Welcome to Our House - 80’s Night featuring ‘Mad About Madonna', ‘The Lomax Brothers’ and hosted by Antonella Bollini (Hidden, Burnley)
Charity Event (Derian House Childrens Hospice) - 80’s Night, hosted by Steve Berry (St Marys Chambers, Rawtenstall) 
Welcome to Our House - Mix Factor - (White Bull, Crawshawbooth)

It quickly became apparent to Neil that there are numerous barriers to a new DJ trying to break into the DJ market - despite plenty of ‘talk’, actual opportunities remained few. 

Undeterred, Neil grabbed the bull by the horns; he decided to organise his own gig. Focussed on engaging and supporting fellow burgeoning DJ’s - The Mix Factor was born! 

This successful event was followed by the ‘Mix Factor’ prize - the opportunity to play at Neil's second gig, headlined by none other than Anne Savage! 

Neil has battled an additional barrier; paralysed 17 years ago in a Motocross accident, his wheelchair has often put potential clients off; this looks like too much hard work and hassle. It is disappointing that disability still engenders this reaction. But fear not - Neil has a slew of friends and family poised to ‘Roadie’ for him. All he requires from you is the space to set up his adapted DJ booth. His ‘Roadies’ and Neil will do the rest. 

No venue who has taken a chance on Neil has been disappointed - all have invited him back. 

If you want banging tunes from a dedicated and reliable DJ then DJ Cat is your man!!
