Red Bull Music Academy – DJ Harvey interview

by mark on November 7, 2009

We’ve just re-discovererd this awesome, in depth interview with Harvey from a few years ago courtesy of The Red Bull Music Academy.

Harvey talks about his roots as a punk drummer, his early days as a DJ with the Tonka soundsystem, hanging out with Larry Levan, Bozak mixers and much much more.

It’s a really insightful look into the mind of a man that has continued to break the mould as a DJ, discovering and spinning the most spectacular and diverse spectrum of music to his legions of followers around the world and as a producer has been responsible for some of the finest and most sough after disco re-edits that we’ve seen in recent years.

If you haven’t heard him DJ’ing before, then jump at the chance if he’s ever in town, it’s a guaranteed voyage of musical discovery.

There’s a transcript of the interview here if you want to jot down some of secret tunes that he mentions during the chat, otherwise get a brew on, sit back and enjoy…
