From the first development of recorded and transmitted sound, DJs have shaped the record industry and the way we listen to music. Bill Brewster and Frank Broughton have tracked down the inside story focusing on the club DJ. This classic book gets first-hand accounts of the births of disco, hip-hop, house, and techno, and whether an obsessive crate-digger or overpaid superstar, the DJ is the spinning center of our nightlife. It was first released in 1999, now twenty years later it’s fully refreshed, updated and filled with even more stories, including two brand new chapters and more females added. This edition comes with a foreword by James Murphy (LCD Soundsystem).
