Lazarus (Defcon)

I’m a music enthusiast.

Music is the thing that will one day save us all, which is one of many reasons why I consider it to be important.

Like most music enthusiasts, I used to hog people’s stereos and make them listen to what I wanted. Because of this, turning my hand to DJing in 1999 was, in retrospect, inevitable.

I started DJing on internet radio in March 2004 and on average, have put a new show online every six days or so since then. I haven’t counted exactly but I think it’s around a thousand by now.

I hate genre definitions (and go into a lot of detail on that here: https://lazarustrance.wordpress.com/2012/08/02/fifty-shades-of-blue-why-genre-does-not-matter/) but it’s fair to say that for the most part I play what’s called “trance.”

I have no interest in fame although I did once make it to 1222 in the DJ Mag chart. This is why I don’t have a logo or any kind of social media strategy.

Nowadays I have three ongoing shows: The Rebirth Session - These don’t broadcast anywhere but are (with occasional exceptions) my official demo mixes. Back From The Dead - This goes out monthly on Afterhours FM (every first Monday) and is a full-on uplifting/banging show. Rise Above - This goes out weekly on Discover Trance Radio (every Friday) and is the end result of me enjoying a mix at home over the previous weekend, whatever that may have turned out to be.

All my shows go online at my Soundcloud and Mixcloud pages.
