This week, we delve into the remarkable journey of DJ Angelo, a luminary in the realm of turntablism, whose ascent from a modest beginning to becoming a highly respected figure in the DJ community serves as an inspiration to many. Having cultivated a friendship spanning two decades, I have had the privilege to witness Angelo's evolution not only as a turntablist but also as a creative director, shaping the landscape of DJing itself. Throughout our conversation, we traverse the tapestry of his early influences, the pivotal moments that ignited his passion for music, and the profound impact of community on his artistic development. Angelo's narrative is replete with insights into the relentless pursuit of excellence and the importance of adaptability in a rapidly changing industry. Join us as we explore the multifaceted dimensions of his career, punctuated by anecdotes that illuminate the challenges and triumphs that have defined his path.

This week I’m honoured to be joined by one of my oldest friends in DJing, DJ Angelo. 

Very poignant that this comes out straight after DMC Weekend, given that he’s probably played a significant role in a lot of competitors learning their craft. Before terms like influencer existed, Angelo gained mass exposure through his YouTube tutorial videos, and has continued to contribute a lot to the scene as a performer, ambassador, competitor, tech advisor and more.

In this episode we go right back to his roots, looking at the many different ways Angelo’s developed artistically and professionally, and we find out what keeps him growing, and how he feels about 25 years in the game.
