  • The Dexter Jones Show

    This podcast should be renamed “The Dexter Jones Show” as the host spends as much , if not more , time talking about himself and interrupting the guests , than he does allowing them to speak and tell their story.

    After not listening for a while , I thought I’d give it a second chance but he was actually worse than ever in the Chris Agnelli double episode.

    Yet another dance music podcaster with a massive ego and an over-inflated opinion of himself.

    Tremendous stories and details form my golden age. Love Chris' self-deprecating tone. Everyday original is in my top 5 trance of all time. Creamfields 99 and Gatecrasher at Lotherton Hall. Just try to ignore the vocal version. Dexter is a great interviewer so I will now deep dive the back catalogue

Graeme Park on ACCIDENTALLY Becoming a DJ
Q: What makes Haçienda so special to you today?
He reflects on Haçienda's unique culture, its influence on warehouse and club culture, and how the brand has evolved into a long-running club identity with Haçienda Nights and Haçienda Classical.
Graeme Park on ACCIDENTALLY Becoming a DJ
Q: How did you first get into music and DJing?
Graeme describes learning clarinet and sax, a Saturday job in a record shop, and how those experiences naturally led to DJing when a club owner demanded him to spin, all beginning in his teens.
Peach London: the legacy of one of UK clubbing’s most iconic nights
Q: Why was the name Peach chosen, and who were the original people behind Peach?
Lambert helped coin the name during a period when Cream was successful; Peach was conceived as a complementary brand to Cream, and the original lineup included JM from Kiss Club Promotions along with a promoter-driven team, with the name ultimately connecting to a broader branding strategy.
Peach London: the legacy of one of UK clubbing’s most iconic nights
Q: Remind me, when did Peach first start?
The origin traces back to a Kiss FM promotion night that rebranded under the Peach name as a response to changing club promotion, with the initial crew including key figures who would shape its identity.
Utah Saints on Not Having a Plan B
Q: Was there ever a point where Utah Saints was not going to happen?
No; both Tim and Jez describe an instinctive commitment to making it work, with the rise being organic and driven by confidence in their path rather than a formal plan. They relied on momentum and a belief in their music to propel them forward.
