As we celebrate the 62nd birthday of legendary veteran DJ and producer Carl Cox, it’s the perfect time to take a walk down memory lane. Cox’s musical journey began with a passion for disco as a 15-year-old mobile DJ. This early love for dance music exposed him to the newfound Chicago house music scene in its infancy. This exposure was pivotal, shaping his path as one of the most influential figures in the house and techno genres.
Cox’s first single, ‘Let’s Do It’, released in 1989, marked the start of his impressive career. However, it was his follow-up track, ‘I Want You (Forever)’, in 1991 that truly represented his talent and cemented his status in the electronic dance music scene. Beyond the studio, Carl Cox’s impact was welcomed at Space Ibiza from 2001 to 2016, where his ‘Music is Revolution’ residency became legendary. He went on to become the CEO and founder of Intec Digital in 1998 and is the genius mastermind behind ‘Carl Cox & Friends’ at major festivals like UMF, BPM Festival, and Tomorrowland. His influence is undisputed.
