Biography

Born in Chelsea, the son of a Jazz musician, Dave Angel’s first musical instrument (appropriately) was a drum at the noisy age of eight.
Not one for conforming, even at the early age, Angel spent little time in school, preferring truancy to chemistry and the music room to the classroom.

1988 and the explosion of acid house in London and the rest of the country seemed to be the major break for Angel, who at the time was pioneering this unbelievable new sound on radio Phaze One.

A well known pirate radio station in the capital. The technological explosion which was to rock pre conceived musical conceptions established the young DJ who found himself proclaimed as “One of the major techno talents in Britain”. (Echoes March 1992).

DJing formed a natural progression into the recording process and two weeks recording at home with two basic turntables and two tape decks and a child Casio keyboard (yes a child’s!!) in 1989 bore the fruits of his first musical excursion ~ a remix of The Eurhythmics “Sweet Dreams” ~ somewhat controversial but eminently successful.
Angel’s reworking of the track created such a massive buzz in the clubs that RCA were forced to officially release the track and incredibly it charted and climbed to No 23 in the UK National Charts first time round.

Since this initial success Dave has not lost his drive to create music which continues to be regarded as some of the bravest and influential dance music this country produces.

    This guy spun at an 'unwire' night in cafe 1001 (yeah, I know....nevermind) two years ago. Was a brilliant night all round. So he's still about.
