The London DJ circuit is tough cookie to crack. There are about 6 million wannabe DJs – 90% armed with their latest Beatport recommendations and regular Monday night slots at faux-American theme bars and cardboard Gastro pubs, 10% who actually have a clue. Because making it in London is not just about talent or how upfront your record collection is, it’s about having the right personality and knowing how to make your own luck.
Paul Louth knows this, and it’s why he is one of the most prominent names on the London circuit. Having held down a 11-year residency with Prologue (quoted in DJMag as “the ultimate club night for people who want a good night out with a credible music policy”), he’s enjoyed one of the most sought after jobs in the capital. In fact, while most DJs would swap their mint condition original pressing of Marshall Jefferson’s ‘Move Your Body’ for the chance to play five minutes at The Cross, Paul played there every month for three years. Few DJs can boast that on their CV. Prologue promoter Harvey actually offered Paul his first gig after hearing one of his mix CD’s, then promptly snapped him up as main room resident after that very gig.
