The legendary DJ talks in-depth to Matt Everitt about the pivotal moments and songs that have shaped his life and career.
Carl Cox is one of the most celebrated British techno and house DJs of the global dance music scene and has been filling dancefloors since the mid 1980s..
Carl started his working life as a shelf-stacker and a scaffolder in the south London suburbs. Described by Norman Cook as "the DJs DJ", Carl's phenomenal talents grew out of his love of music and knowledge of Soundsystem culture. From DJ'ing as 'The People's Choice' at unlicensed raves to becoming a global headline main stage artist playing across the world, he has been everything from a recording artist and producer to label owner, radio DJ and broadcaster. Known as "the three deck wizard" Carl played at the opening night of the legendary 'Shoom', at unlicensed raves, billed as 'The People's Choice', and has many tales to tell.
In his biography 'OH YES! OH YES!', out next month. Carl looks back over a life lived at the heart of the party, from Ibiza to Melbourne. His career in many ways is the story of club culture.
Carl has won the Best International DJ Award three times, the Best Techno DJ Award six times, and the Best Ibiza Club Night, receiving a record 32 consecutive nominations since the awards began in 1998.
