...as a DJ, producer, promoter, A&R, radio presenter, taste-maker and, more recently, a music specialist lawyer.
Widley recognised for influencing an entire generation with residencies on both Kiss FM and BBC Radio 1, to this day the Judge continues to be on the playlists of millions with his weekly radio show The Global Warm Up, which notches up 750,000 downloads every week via his podcast and is broadcast on over 80 stations around the world.
As a pioneer of the club scene, his passion and persona behind the decks coupled with crowd connection and unrivalled track selection has earned Judge Jules a hardcore fanbase and unforgettable sets week-in week-out at the world’s most iconic clubs and festivals, including the UK’s Gatecrasher, Ministry of Sound, Global Gathering and Creamfields, as well as in countless overseas countries.
In 2019 Jules embarked on a brand-new project with his first live show accompanied by musicians. Judge Jules: Live sees Jules joined by a full 10-piece band, reimagining and reinventing a selection of poignant classic tracks from his career, delivered in intimate venues up and down the UK.
In the studio, Judge Jules has released over 200 tracks, including 15 UK top 40 national charts hits, with countless more gracing the upper reaches of the dance charts. In the last three years alone, he’s had over 12 releases on iconic labels like Coldharbour, Sirup, Armada and his own imprint, Judgement. As a respected taste-maker, he’s also mixed now-legendary compilations for Ministry of Sound, Universal and Warner Bros, racking up over 3 million sales between them. Compilations considered timeless snapshots of the scene.
He's been resident at mega-club brands from Godskitchen to Trade, and from Space Ibiza to Hakkasan Las Vegas. During his tenure as a BBC Radio 1 presenter, he was an early advocate for the new wave of techno that was emerging at the time. His best-known tracks include "Anon" and his remix of Slam's techno anthem “Positive Education." His debut album "Dynamite and Lazerbeams" (released on his own Excentric Muzik label) received critical acclaim from MixMag and DJ Mag and was voted album of the year at the Dance Music Awards.
While still a teen Fergie became versed in the art of DJing and established his musical style at the Trade party in London during the late 90's under the tutelage of house hero Tony de Vit. Throughout the noughties, he was featured in DJ Mag's Top 100 DJs poll seven years in a row and currently holds the record for the highest new entry (8th in 2000). Coming off a successful BBC Radio 1 Essential Mix that year, the station immediately signed him and fellow techno legend Carl Cox as it's very first Essential Mix residents. That gig was followed by a weekly Friday night slot that became the soundtrack to millions of UK youth for half a decade. Using his platform to be an early supporter of talent such as Alan Fitzpatrick, Rebuke, Matador, Nic Fanciulli and Nicole Moudaber, Fergie's show was prophetic for identifying future heroes of techno and electro years before they became household names. Over the next ten years, Fergie split his time between countless magazine covers and headlining sold-out club and festival shows around the globe, including the mother of all festivals, Glastonbury. His compilations for MixMag, DJ Mag and Ministry of Sound were some of the most popular releases of the era.”
John O'Callaghan is a DJ and Irish musician, mainly working on producing electronic dance music. He has collaborated with several ‘Discover’ artists such as Bryan Kearney, Neal Scarborough and Greg Downey and many more. He is best known for his track called 'Big Sky' that he made alongside a vocalist. A lot of his work has been released by a British record label and been promoted by Armada Music. A remix of his song 'Big Sky' was even voted tune of the year by the State of Trance radio show in 2007, which is quite impressive I'd say. He's picked up several British and Irish awards during his career and performed at many events with different vocalists. His live performances include a lot of fireworks, strobe lights and impressive sets; I think it's hard for a DJ just to be on stage alone and to capture the audience’s attention so it’s clear that they need loads of these additional extras. The vibe he creates whilst on stage is electric and gave me an unexpected appreciation for DJ's and what they do, he brings more life to music and although he doesn't appear to do or say much whilst he's on stage, he works hard to create some amazing sounds, which is evident.
I had never been to a Marco V concert, and only heard what music my husband played in the car. He surprised me with tickets to see Marco V at Sensation, which isn't really my scene but he really wanted me to and so I went along with it. Everything was so full of energy, everyone was pumped, and according to many of the people I had spoke to, it was his best set yet. The whole show was integrated, the lights, the dancing, it all seemed to flow so perfectly together. I don't think I saw a single person sit down the entire show. It started off super high energy and he was able to hold that energy for the entire set, almost three hours. The venue was packed to the brim with people dancing and the lights flashing. I understood why my husband wanted to share this experience with me, and now I think I'll be hooked on, if not dance music, the shows for the rest of my life. Even though I was so sore and it felt like I had jelly for legs the following day I would do it again in a heartbeat. Decent parking, ok service.
