SHANE WATCHA
Since humble beginnings in his home town of Durban, Shane has gone on to be a regular at London top clubs, playing Glastonbury to warehouse raves in East London. The past few years have seen Shane play DC10 opening party for CIRCO LOCO & also the main stage @ festivals alongside Sasha, BookaShade, Loco Dice & Nathan Fake. The quality of Shane’s sets have seen him playing alongside DJ's like Frankie Knuckles, Todd Terry, Marshall Jefferson, Derrick Carter and Boy George to present day heroes like Ewan Pearson, Steve Bug, Loco Dice, Claude Von Stroke, Marc Houle, Konrad Black, Andy Cato, Ralph Lawson, Tim Sheridan, James Holden, Clive Henry, & Mr C. A regular guest at most of London’s top underground events most notably playing for CIRCO LOCO @ The End. Shane also hosts the very popular ZOMBIES ATE MY BRAIN parties that are now hosted alongside Jaded on Sunday mornings also at The End. On the production front – Toolroom records have been quick to sign Shane’s first release, with his next release signed to Tim Sheridan’s VeryVeryWrongIndeed label.
The story starts in 1992 when Shane decides to leave South Africa for London inspired by the wave of dance music emerging in the late 80’s and embrace the music that has he been listening to. He then starts up his own club night… FILTHY , which enjoys a devoted following, and quickly came to the attention of London’s top clubs and acted as the ideal platform for him to carve a reputation that would lead him onto the international stage. Soon Shane turned his attention oversees. His sense of wanderlust first saw him making forays to Moscow, then mainland Europe, the Far East (Singapore, Thailand, Indonesia) then Australia and New Zealand plus USA. Being inspired by the tribal sounds of Danny Tenaglia and intensity of Laurent Garnier and Carl Cox sets, Shane is always focused on the party - his techno sets have a tougher edge while his lighter & more minimal side has seen him rock dancefloors worldwide. He is a firm believer in the concept of the global dance floor, so come Saturday night, you're just as likely to find him popping up in Europe, USA, and Asia as you are in London. All in all, not a bad result for someone who started DJing at 20 in that tiny club in South Africa.
DJ MAG: “There is something cool & cultish about Shane’s ability to switch from mild mannered human into rabid techno, minimal house fiend!”
