Event information

Rotation bring in a true Global Dance Music Pioneer & Industry Visionary
Stuart Patterson is a dance music phenomenon who has a thirty-year pedigree in all spheres of the industry. His journey began with DJing, party promoting and then developed into running his own record label (Transfusion), bar (The Lodge), club (East Village) and record shop (Love
Vinyl).
His desire to bring dance music to the masses originated in Buckinghamshire in the late eighties where even at a young age, Stuart's entrepreneurial spirit shone through. He notably booked and played alongside Norman Jay, Andrew Weatherall, Pete Tong and Simon Dunmore. His lifelong friendship and collaboration with veteran Terry Farley started here too.
The growth and popularity of the music scene in the mid-nineties prompted Stuart to relocate to London which was fast becoming the worldwide epicentre of the business. With his then business Partner Leo Zero, the much-loved Soulsonic party was launched and then under Stuart’s curation a mix compilation, Soulsonic Volume 1 on the BBE label (quickly followed by Deviant on Heavenly records). Stuart´s motivation to bring emerging artists to the market continued with the formation of his Transfusion Label which saw in excess of thirty releases at the turn of the century (including Maurice Fulton and Phil Asher).
In 1999, the now pioneering music collaboration FAITH was born, bringing Terry Farley, Dave Jarvis and Stuart together hosting some of London's most popular parties of the past 24 years.
Using Leo Zero's exceptional design skills the first Faith Fanzine was published and is now in it's third life and one of the only printed dance culture magazines still going (faith.london).
Stuart’s reputation spread internationally over the following years where he played in all
corners of the world whilst appearing at all the UK's major venues and festivals like
Glastonbury and Homelands plus regular sets at Notting Hill Carnival. His growing reputation saw him being named DJ of the month in Mixmag, The Face. I-D and DJ magazine. He is still seen as a UK house music ambassador.
Stuart continues to host sold-out Faith parties, play huge London clubs alongside legends like Masters at Work or David Morales and appear at top festivals like We Out Here and Defected Croatia/Malta. In addition, he promotes his own events in India and Spain plus holds a number of international residencies. 2023 saw Stuart continue to inspire, educate, and bring the party to the musically enlightened and this will not change for 2024.

Honey Dijon, Paul Weller, Carl Cox, Roisin Murphy, Carl Craig, Kerri Chandler, Danny Krivit, Derrick Carter, DJ Sneak, David Rodigan, Dixon, Gilles Peterson, Ame, Danny Tenaglia, Eryka Badu, Crazy P.
