We’re going to dig deep to bring you large characters from dance music’s long history, as well as bright young things keeping the spirit alive.

Her label @onloopofficial is now 10 years old, and she was also nominated for Best Resident DJ at DJ Mag's Best of British Awards in 2019. We had a wide-ranging discussion, which included discovering DJing via an after-school club, her role as a female promoter, how she prepares for shows, and advice on how to get ahead in a notoriously tough music industry.Tune in now via Mixcloud, Spotify and YouTube now ✨Follow DjHistory Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/djhistorycom/ Follow DjHistory TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@djhistorycomFollow DjHistory Mixcloud: https://www.mixcloud.com/djhistory/Sign up to our Mailing List: https://www.subscribepage.com/djhistoryHome of the DjHistory forum and other arcane DJ ephemera 🖤For More info: https://djhistory.com/

DjHistory Podcast: Mike Pickering (DJH038)
One of the first Dj's to dispense with the microphone and drag DJ culture kicking and screaming into the modern era, Mike Pickering has seen it all. From meeting most of his musical contemporaries via the terraces of Man Cities main road, and the away ends of division one. Through to forming a series of groups Quando Quango, through to M People. Pickering stayed one step ahead of the DJ game all the way through the 1980s via his residency at the Hacienda, and then winning brit awards and a Mercury music Prize. We talked to Mike about the life on the terraces, his time in Rotterdam, the influence of Quando Quango, T-Coy and M People and guiding Calvin Harris into the pop charts.

DjHistory: Crazy P (DJH036)
Crazy P are a curious collective. Without ever having hits, they’ve become one of dance music’s most beloved outfits. As they enter their 30th year in the business, we reflected on a range of topics, from records that clear the floor, collaborating remotely, growing champion radishes and mourning the death of much-loved singer Danielle Moore.
