This time we have the pleasure of sitting down with DJ and producer, Denney.

The conversation kicks off with the gripping tale of how he landed his coveted signing with Hot Creations, offering a glimpse into the inner workings of one of the most revered labels in the scene. From there, we dive into the world of Leeds student house parties, where Denney recounts one surreal moment when the sound technicians from DC10 worked their magic on the sound system, setting the stage for a seriously naughty afters gaff for the infamous 'Back To Basics' parties.

Denney also offers poignant reflections on the evolving landscape of social media and its impact on the confidence of younger generations, urging aspiring artists to stay true to their vision and say no to gigs that don't align with their artistic integrity. He also shares his awe-inspiring experiences of collaborating with artists he once deemed unattainable, proving that dreams can indeed become reality in the world of electronic music.

Yet, amidst the triumphs, Denney also shares the harsh realities of the job, from grappling with enormous and unexpected tax bills to confronting the glorification of drug culture, even within respected publications like Mixmag.
