Bill Brewster @ Endless Race, Star & Shadow Cinema, Sat 19 Feb 2011

Event information

Endless Race are giddily excited about presenting to you the one and only, Bill Brewster, a walking encyclopaedia of dance music, a cross-genre master.

Whether he’s taking the roof off a club with his unique selection of deep and tough house music, enchanting a backroom with a genre-bending set of disco, Balearic, rock or hip hop, armed with a sensitivity and sense of occasion that few DJs possess Bill Brewster knows how to work a crowd in the best possible sense.

He is the co-writer of the acclaimed Last Night A DJ Saved My Life, as well as co-founder of the essential DJhistory.com website and of the legendary Low Life parties, warehouse rave-up that have now been running an incredible 15 years.

He began DJing in the 1980s, but came into his own in the early 1990s, particularly during a two-year stint in New York running DMC’s office, where nights at the Sound Factory and hanging out with Danny Tenaglia gave him the musical grounding you can still hear in his music today.

Anyone hearing Bill today can hear the influence of years spent cutting his teeth as a DJ in New York. There are few still playing regularly today that have his dedication, eclecticism and encyclopaedic knowledge of music that will be on display on February 19th.

He has been working in the industry’s fringes for almost 30 years including the running of various labels from Twisted UK and Forensic in the ’90s to Disco Sucks and, lately, Anorak. Miss this rare opportunity to see him in the North East at your own peril.


We are told this is Bill’s 2nd ever performance in Newcastle, so truly a rare occasion and one you must not miss. If you want to hear proof for yourself just check out the following mixes:
