Chris Camplin Biography:
Chris Camplin is a classically trained pianist whose stylistic roots go back to the drum and bass and garage of the late nineties, where artists such as MJ Cole, DJ Hype and Zed Bias provided the soundtrack to his formative years. During his teens Chris was deeply involved with London’s underground club scene – where he carried out promotional work for Trade, DTPM and Nag Nag Nag. He was influenced by the disco revival as pioneered by Horse Meat Disco, and his love of house and techno matured as he travelled to Ibiza’s infamous DC10, Space, Bora Bora and Berlin’s Berghain where he heard a complexity of dance music that inspired him to become a DJ.
These early experiences meant that Chris accumulated an eclectic knowledge of music far beyond his years. He began to play out at private parties at aged 20 and from these appearances he secured a set at Boria Peña's East London night b(E)ast. He has played regular gigs at Dalston Superstore, East Bloc, Visions Video Bar, Vogue Fabrics, Hysteria, PaperDress Vintage as well as dropping tunes at some of East London’s most exclusive underground raves.
Chris was scouted by Clayton Wright in 2010 and became DJ / co-promoter for the night Little Gay Brother. He worked hard to get the concept off the ground and this was rewarded with a residency at East London’s infamous Dalston Superstore. Acclaim for Little Gay Brother has meant Chris played alongside world class DJs at the U.K. festivals Secret Garden Party and Eastern Electrics 2013.
Behind the decks Chris provides sets that energise the crowd – he introduces rare garage and disco classics, a nod to his early days, alongside cutting edge house and techno to the delight of his fans. He possesses the rare ability of being able to keep the dance floor constantly moving because Chris’s sets have one aim only; to make the night as fun and unforgettable as possible for the crowd. For this reason Chris is able to create an intimate party atmosphere no matter which venue.
