John Digweed was born on January 1, 1967, in Hastings, England. He is a DJ, record producer, and actor. He is particularly famous for such songs as “Heavy Scent”, “What You Dream Of”, and “Voices”.
John Digweed started DJing when he was just 13 years old. When he turned 15, his name became famous at the acid house parties in his local town of Hastings. John’s career got a jump-start when he met a famous DJ Alexander Coe better known as DJ Sasha. Together with the administrators of the Renaissance club, Sasha listened to Digweed’s work and enjoyed his demo songs and mixes. John was offered a job in London.
Together with Sasha, Digweed became a famous “prophet” of the progressive trance and progressive house style in the UK. Thanks to Sasha and John, the progressive style attracted the attention of music lovers from all over the world and became mainstream just like traditional dance music. Digweed became the first British DJ in history to receive a residency status in the nightclub Twilo. For many years, his name was part of the top-10 best DJ list. In 2001, he earned the DJ Number 1 title.
