artist profiles:
PAUL GLAZBY
Paul Glazby is the Don, the ‘hard’ in hard house, the guy who conquered an entire scene almost overnight with his remix of Quench’s Dreams. The minstrel of mayhem who led the way from day one, when he boldly stated his intentions, and with every beat, every mix, in every set, at every club, on almost every continent, with every record he has made or played, he has kept his word.
That promise propelled a solo debut single that has since become the definitive hard house anthem. Kick It is the one that closes the last set of every Tidy Weekender, the classic so many others aspire to be. The tune launched the DJ, production and remix career of a giant who instantly towered over the hard house scene. The record launched a label which grew into a stable, an empire, a leader of the pack.
Vicious Circle has since clocked up almost seventy releases, including the all-time classics Beautiful, Yamamba, Crazy Pills and Hostile along with its founder’s unrivalled Ten Commandments series of ten consecutive singles.
It has spawned the renowned I Love VC albums, events and tours and it remains the biggest and best hard house stamp in the world. At the Hard Dance Awards it has received the accolades of Best Single and Best Album, while its head honcho has come home with a Best Remixer trophy.
The powerful punch Paul packs in the mix has graced albums on other labels, such as Tidy’s Insomnia, Hard Dance Republic and TW9 Live, while he has had singles snapped up by greats – Tidy, Nukleuz and Recharge.
Paul has also contributed to all of the major summer festivals such as Global Gathering, Creamfields, Gatecrasher Summer Sound System and the globally-renowned Dance Valley.
BEN STEVENS
Chances are the first time you heard the name of Ben Stevens, it was none other than Paul Glazby tipping the aspiring DJ for the top.
And in the half a decade or so since he first grabbed the attention of the revered Vicious Circle head honcho, Stevens has never had any problem living up to such high expectations.
Glazby’s faith in the youngster saw him land pivotal roles in the development of the Vicious Circle stable, both in A&R and event management, and as a result Stevens has a sense of professionalism that belies his 24 years.
Regarded by many of his peers as a technical genius on the wheels of steel, beatmaster Ben has become one of the most in-demand hard house DJs in Britain, with regular slots at high-profile events such as Frantic, Polysexual, Creamfields and the Tidy Weekenders.
The abilities and talents of Ben Stevens are without question: whether producing tunes or playing them, he knows exactly how to work a dancefloor and raise the roof off a club.
