GAVIN LAMPITT

Gavins favoured style of music ranges from funky vocal house
through to dirty twisted electro although
he always manages to throw in a few classics for good measure.
His mixing ability is faultless, he doesnt just leave it at simple mixing
like so many dj's nowadays, he likes to whip the crowd into a frenzy
with the use of accapellas / samples and looping skills.
He firmly believes its the djs responsibility to ensure everyone
has a night to remember, he always tries to create an uplifting
atmosphere by interacting with the crowd and cant understand
djs who just stand staring at the decks showing no enthusiasm.
