Now Then! That's what i call music 2018! Part 1

“You can teach someone how to mix, but you can’t teach them how to be a DJ.”

In an era of pre-recorded sets and prima donnas who are more in love with the spotlight than they are the music, it’s words like these that solidify Ian’s reputation as a premier house DJ. A rōnin who’s traded swords for turntables, Ian’s been a veteran of the U.K. music scene since 1989. From Spain to Holland, from Hawaii and beyond, Ian’s sought-after skills have landed him gigs in cities around the world. And now as a resident of Victoria, B.C., Ian brings his hard-hitting beats to venues across Canada. One simple rule guides him and the party-goers in attendance: if you come out soaking wet, then you know you had a good night.
Music has always been in Ian’s blood. A classic rock father and a pianist mother ignited the flame that he carries with him today, a pedigree that his daughters now share. For Ian, music isn’t something for your ears to enjoy; it’s a way of life—something that you live and breathe. As Ian states, “I can’t relate to people who say, ‘I used to be a DJ.’” 
For more than 20 years, Ian has been revitalizing dance floors.  Along with his own label (Keep Warm Recordings) and shows around the world, his decisive passion for the industry shows no sign of slowing down. What keeps him invigorated is that rapport with the crowd. Whether a state-of-the-art venue or a 300-person room, everything hinges on that connection.  
“Get them up there and keep them up there. At the end of the day, it’s entertainment and not education; if people aren’t dancing then you’re not doing your job.”—Ian Devlin

I'll keep it brief! Since getting my first set of decks in 1995 I have had the DJ Bug... Fast forward through the years and some experiences I find myself a Resident DJ for Edit Presents in Manchester and loving all things Disco and Edits!

I've been making electronic music for discos, and sometimes radios too for the best part of 25 years. I DJ in clubs and parties all over the globe, from Tokyo to Barcelona to Dubai and beyond. I love to rock sound systems and dancefloors.

I like my music with a groove in its step, a melancholy longing in its heart, and acid house on its mind, a bit like Chic and Depeche Mode getting loved up with 808 State at a warehouse rave.

My past pseudonyms include chart-bothering acts like PF Project, Tzant and Musique vs U2, and labels I've released on or remixed for over the years include the likes of Armada, Hed Kandi, Universal and many more.
