Carl Cox biography

Carl Cox (born July 29th, 1962) is a British house and techno DJ, hailing from Oldham, Greater Manchester. He has performed extensively in clubs and worked on the radio, most notably for the BBC.

One of Britain’s best-known and, indeed, best-loved house DJs, Cox actually began his career in hardcore and rave in the eighties, where he commanded crowds at iconic clubs that included Heaven in London and The Hacienda in Manchester. His charisma and personality guaranteed him several radio jobs during his nineties heyday, including on Radio 1 - where had a monthly residency - as well as on Kiss FM. He’s released four solo albums to date - 1996’s ‘At the End of the Cliche’, 1999’s ‘Phuture 2000’, 2005’s ‘Second Sign’ and, in 2011, ‘All Roads Lead to the Dancefloor’. He’s put out a slew of single over the course of his career, too, but he’s best known for his live work.

His main focus these days are his two record labels, Intec Records and 23rd Century Records, but he continues to perform live; he curates a night at Manchester superclub the Warehouse Project on an annual basis, and also has his own stage at Ultra Music Festival in Miami, Florida, Electric Daisy Carnival in New York, and the world’s biggest dance festival, Tomorrowland in Belgium. The free reign he's given over the curation of a stage at these huge festivals tells you everything you need to know about his revered status in the dance world.

Live reviews

Carl Cox has been on the DJ scene for many years, starting his journey in the industry as a hardcore rave DJ. This section of his career saw him performing regularly at popular nightclubs, for BBC radio in a regular slot, and being hired out for prestigious events. Cox achieved enough success to form his own record label and continue producing his own music along side.
I was lucky enough to catch Cox at Ibiza DJing one of the main parties, and it really was the best DJ set I’ve ever seen. It really makes you appreciate the skill and talent needed to mix and perform live when you witness it first hand. He played through tonnes of mixes of his own, and also mixed up some covers and collaborations from other big artists. He played an adapted version of Dirty Bass, and everyone went mad, dancing and jumping around, jamming along to the incredible mix. He’s got a great stage presence and vibe when he’s performing, and his banter between and over the top of tracks kept everyone entertained and cheering for the music. I don’t think we stopped dancing from beginning to end, and the house music with catch hooks begged us to stay on our feet. If you want a good dance, Carl Cox is the DJ for you!
