Bill Brewster was our first international guest when he played alongside Metro Area's Morgan Geist back in October 2006. It was cracking night and he played a mystic brew of gritty funk, obscures disco and lush house music finishing up with Bob Marley. Which was nice.
He has been Djing for over 20 years and collecting records for an impressive 35. His influences came from the late John Peel who introduced him to many styles of music from Glam Rock to Motown. In his early 20's he formed a funk band, which managed to get a record deal, however, they never made it big but Bill's love and enthusiasm for music didn't falter for a second.
Bill's first big break in the music industry when he was approached by Mixmag some 18 years ago whilst writing for a football magazine. This was the start of a musical career spanning over 20 years. Other magazines Brewster has been involved with include Muzik and Jockey Slut, not to mention the four books he has published with the help of long-term friend Frank Broughton. (Last Night a Dj Saved My Life, How To Dj (Properly), The Manual and Time Out Interviews.
He has also produced some fantastic edits, two of which are Hot Chocolate – ‘Dance’ and Fox – ‘S-s-single bed’.
Fill your boots.
