Carl Cox on over 30 years of DJ'ing

[@neaumusic]

man this guy is incredible, I was looking at his tracklists and he’s flying all over the world, playing incredible music for people who arent nearly as passionate as him, and he’s so humble, great interview

[@davidm4677]

I’m just music producer and have few beats of his included in my works.

[@mattierenton701]

One of the most beautiful, most humble people in our scene. His love of music, his love of people and wanting to connect with people through the power of music is just wonderful.

[@ichigen511]

Actaully he is not that humble. He was a gatekeeper and didn't want house and techno mixed together in the early 90s for example (how retarded is that?) and he resisted breakbeats and missed the boat on drum & bass. i'm a fan of his work but not a fan of him.

[@fatimatkhakakhova5359]

Couldn't say any better!! He is just wonderful inside and out as an artist and a human being!!! So pure! So humble! So transparent! So full of positive energy! And so so much more! 1 book is not enough to describe this Legend! We ❤ you Carl Cox! With full heart! Just like you love us and love music and share your love and passion with us through your truly amazing art - your music! Thank you for being you! ❤🙌🥰

[@gambianice]

Carl Cox is legendary. He's the master of festivals and is quite humble and inspiring. Made an African girl fall with house, because of his representation

[@Ulnvtcydr]

Fancy seeing you here 😄 and yeah he’s the man!

[@NextSound170]

This too for many of us Africans to see the representation is what inspired me. Blessings sistah 👊🏾

[@bigpauliep6992]

​@@NextSound170Thanks for your "current day things!" comment. Really puts into perspective how things have changed over a few short years

[@vincedidiana5781]

The interviewer is very good. He listens really well, doesn’t interrupt, and asks great questions. Great job!

[@1ranjeeves21]

yeah a big improvement on some of his previous interviews....

[@et9233]

I first seen Carl dj at a rave in 1991.. 30 years on I'm still dancing to him dj'ing at festivals & ibiza. The guy is a pioneer, legend and a gentleman

[@DezRosswess]

I saw Carl on 3 decks in the vynil days and when you could get close to the DJ booth, to see his mixing skills up close was mesmerising to be able to cut between 3 records at that pace takes serious musicality.

[@dannyroberts4593]

A deep understanding of rhythm .....also. I've heard a near as perfect kick scratch drop to stop in one manouvre....live on radio one, his scratching chops are ace.

[@Sebastian_Snuffle]

Yes, I remember him at Sterns, Worthing.

[@mework1871]

@Mike Oxlong ha ha yeh. Even Fantazia Big Bang in 94 he was messy. Eliss Dee and others at the same event wiped the floor on him in terms of mixing. He played the big tunes though. Tried to scratch and couldn't manage it while the other Djs were scratching at a way higher level by that point, then he switched to house/techno. But hats off to Carl Cox, he is a massive DJ and a pioneer no doubt. You can't take anything away from him really.

[@mr90s48]

​@@mework1871 he is a absolute legend of rave/dance music. But early 90s dj Trix was the best in my opinion

[@Amay12675]

Big Bang was a brilliant mix one of my favourites. Every tune from start to finish was excellent and of course the mixing and scratching. Nice one Carl 💙

[@zergbong]

The energy on his parties is unmatched. He toured so much, I saw him live several times. Love the guy.

[@SeedsofJoy]

Carl cox should get a knighthood!

[@jonmorris518]

Yes yes!

[@Caer4u]

Oh yes, oh yes!

[@dhollsynthmusic]

agreed!

[@aztronomy7457]

Saw him at Tomorrowland 2015. One of the first techno sets I had ever seen at that time. Completely melted me. One of his best sets ever and he's one of the best DJ's ever.

[@oldraver9644]

Please keep that energy burning Carl....we need it now more than ever 🙏🏻

[@gman6177]

The guy is an icon. He’s a master at what he does. Seen him more times than I can count. From the uk and to Ibiza. Only just see him play 2 weeks ago at creamfields south. What he does as a Dj and the way he plays he’s sets is unmatchable. A true pioneer. An he’s just announced he’s playing at Wembley in September. See you soon Carl 🔥

[@jaimerodriguez1550]

Carl Cox is the best. He so experienced, played for so many crowds, he knows what makes people from all around the world move. He has been the constant in this electronic DJ music world, been a constant in my listening. One of the greatest, if not the greatest.

[@Tote0311]

this lad has been in the top DJ's worldwide for more than 20+ years touring the world and playing in the best parties since the underground scene took form....yet he is so humble and down to earth... Long Live the KING CARL COX oh yes oh yes

[@hoopsnbulls2207]

Carl Cox, Fusion 3, Farnborough Oct 1994. Been a fan ever since. Legend!!

[@neaumusic]

watched the whole video start to finish, thanks so much

[@ShayCat]

What a humble guy. He must have such a peaceful aura to be around and an absolute master and beast on decks! Honestly my fave DJ

[@suspectdevice5644]

When you think DJ you think Carl Cox . . . The best DJ this world has ever known without any shadow of doubt. This legendary character took techno and made it his own . . . Long live Carl Cox !

[@richardellis653]

I Have been fortunate enough to have seen Carl Cox live a few times through the 90’s in London, he was a legend then and he continues to be today, apart from his obvious music talent, what a great attitude to life! If only there was more people like Carl Cox.

[@MatthewGale-xn4wj]

...there are plenty of people like him in .'..the underground... '...

[@GavinRamonShow]

There is a reason he is legendary as a dj alone. Listen to a dance mix and you will see he mixes music in key. So he will roll out a seven min tune and sample a different track and use that hook during parts of the song already playing. I was a scratch dj for years and into much darker music but he is one of the British DJs as both music and as a man I genuinely love. Met him a few times over the years and he as always been not only a pleasure but just a G. For those youngers out there, go check out “I want you , Forever” which he made in the 90s. It’s a magic track

[@f9Pete]

My favourite DJ since 94.

[@1985SJW]

Fantastic interview and one of the most humble DJ's on the planet.

[@CJ-dg9nu]

I met Carl Cox 1987 wicked Dj the Best set was wicked 🎉😊

[@stevepinnock5668]

My first experience of a rave and Carl Cox was an event at Plymouth Warehouse in 93. The TV cameras were there with a program called BPM. I ended up being on the TV dancing away to Carl Cox and MC Majeka. I was only 14 lol. For the next 5 years I was obsessed with the scene. I will never forget that night. The sound when I walked in the warehouse door of one hard techno beat echoing over the next from the ridiculously big sound system. 40k with a huge stack of bass bins in the middle of the warehouse. The power of the music was incredible. I next saw Carl later that year at my first all nighter Universe Big Love. I used to live for the next rave. Everyone happy no attitudes no phones. It was a utopia of happiness. Such a shame there is nothing like the scene now how it was. It was literally like being in heaven. The people, the music, the pure escape. I thought the future was bright for the scene. As it turns out it was a golden time. Those that were there will understand. I still try to be kind to people, the scene accepted me and I am Thankful for what it gave me. I still listen to the music mainly from 92,93,94. It really was amazing.

[@MatthewGale-xn4wj]

Majika went to my school in S.Brum, he was couple of years above me... ...nicely put your comment, agreed to all...

[@johnhannah3999]

Big up the 1's & 2's legend Coxy 🔱 still the man at 59 years young . Go on son !

[@benzobrimzs]

Carl Cox Glastonbury 1995 in the dance tent absolutely amazing . He played the Last set I recall.

[@malinlinneamusic]

King Carl is the best!! I saw him at Space 2007 for the first time;. He’s a legend

[@amirgroove6518]

I have been a very lucky and had a privilege of meeting Carl at his 50th birthday party at Sands in Ibiza. Had a little chat with him, and that man just radiates joy, happiness and such positive energy. He is simply the KING

[@pearlitacastillo3946]

Carl Cox is one of a kind person he is but mostly is about his music he plays and travel around the world for people to hear which he loves he really loves good people his made his own business and making different kind of music and he still playing music that is his passion meeting different people and traveling to places that what music is what he became and music artists and passion he has from his heart. Carl is still a big music icon

[@s7robe297]

Saw him and Sasha at a little crssd event in San Diego a few weeks back. I was running on very little sleep and felt awful. This dudes three hour set gave me so much life it was almost unbelievable. Dude is a master

[@nathanoshea2773]

He's the best DJ in the world hands down no questions asked

[@ErinGrayIsSudsy]

He always makes me smile and dance. The best.

[@brainbeated8398]

RESPECT FOR THIS MAN HE STILL PLAYING WITH HART AND HIS SOUL/GREETS FROM BELGIUM

[@justanothercreator7273]

grew up in England at the beginning of the Hardcore scene...Absolute golden era... Amazing times, no socials, no "whats your tracklist" non saturated with wannabe djs....great times

[@dazzledarren1271]

My dear friend Barrie Stone JFM introduced me to Carl Cox back in the day and he is a gentleman on & off the decks.

[@Guovssohas]

Legend mr. Carl Cox. What he said that music is drug enough is so true. Personally i don't even have a beer, ever. Music is enough.

[@editaaksamitiene5833]

Music is the best drug. I do not need any other "uppers" or "fixers", just feed me trance, acid and house, and I can dance for 12 h non-stop too. That's where you wanna be in your 40s, 60s and 90s ;) Thank you, Carl, for giving us the best vibes.

[@andychizzle]

Loved this! Carl Cox is a boss!❤

[@svjetlangavranich3890]

I have pleasure to be 5times at this legend partyes,not even close how manny times I wish to be...I have been at hundreds and hundreds partyes...no one can come even close to his energy.When you go to his party,you will know what I'm talking about.I love you mr.C,you gaved me some of the best moments of my life.

[@solcutta3661]

His parties?? U mean raves? He was at masses in the 90s, u only been to 5 occasions where Cox was in the play list? So u don't live in the uk I'm taking it otherwise this number would have been much more as it was impossible to go to large raves in uk back then where Carl wasn't usually on the list.

[@Gedit]

Carl Cox is a master of taking his audience on a journey. That's why I love his work. His third table remarks ... when I started using a third table the game changed.

[@Colonel_Pinecone]

Colours 96'! ...Amazing Dj! .... Cheers Carl Cox!

[@AquarianAgeApostle]

I was there. I would have been the sweaty mess at the largest speaker in the back Arch 🎉

[@vladislavhitra4197]

Mr.Cox thank you, I love your art of dj Ing, the energy that flows from your work is just amazing, I am glad I found this interview, great thoughts and life experience, wishing you good health and loads of positive nrg. I am 50 yrs old, I love house music and dance scene since I was 10, and J absolutelly agree that music is a drug. Positive, no harm ,its the feeling you get...good music still cheers me up and gives me positive energy...you did a lot in dance scene and gave to a milions of people that positive happy feeling on your parties you made and still make your audience happy and help to release from stress, good job, thanks, greetings from Czechia, Vlado

[@petemack1161]

Carl+fabric= the perfect mix!

[@Gavaldo]

Uncle Carl Cox Man. Maximum Respect Due. An absolute Legend & A True Gentleman Of The Dance industry. Always been the number 1 DJ. 🙌✌️🙌

[@pmcyprus]

Nice podcast i really enjoyed it with one of the pioneers and a true legend🎧🙏

[@nathanoshea5790]

I seen Carl Cox perform 11 days ago and he absolutely blew me away he is such a good DJ it is astounding

[@jaymarquez8975]

Oh yes!!!! OG Raver here!!!! Since 1993 !!! One of my fav djs CC much love and respect!! Peace, love and unity!!!

[@veganvocalist4782]

He put his families needs first over his own trauma , a beautiful son ,brother and friend to all he holds dear . May you continue always and eternally to be lovingly guided and protected Carl

[@Iwasrapedandbrainwashed]

That's interesting and very truthful I used to be around a family that were deaf and people that are deaf can feel the vibrations of the beats and music and they prefer certain types of vibrations and have a preference of what they actually like in music which makes perfect sense why Carl Cox would be thanked by a deaf person which is very incredible

[@sharonporter1087]

keep. keep keeping on! loved you since 1991... i too done a pare round. visited Barbados. you have got me through good times and dark... big thank you. xxx

[@istrumguitars]

It was definitely a one-of-a-kind experience seeing this legend in the flesh a few weeks back in New York. So glad he’s still doing it, and reeeeally looking forward to catching a house set next time!

[@darrenmcintosh8471]

such a lovly guy he so humble

[@bobwalshywalsh2307]

I grew up with Carl. What a pleasure to both be playing the Edinburgh Fringe once at the same year. He had more in one show than I managed in 23 consecutive but still. Big respect bruvva.

[@Andrew_-_-_]

The only man who rang in the millennium twice.. there is not a DJ out there that doesn’t view him as the true master❤️

[@brettranden]

Class interview. The term legend gets banded about but this man is a true representation of the meaning. The three deck wizard. Rocked many a party in my youth. ♥️👑

[@JackAcid]

The only man to hold a torch to big CC at the time was Sasha - and time has borne out to the sheer talent of these two DJs. Just magical men with a preternatural ability to perform the receitds rather than just mix them. Pure genius. Give Carl a Knighthood x

[@BuceGar]

Great interview. Carl is a legend.

[@davo7sky]

Uncle Carl, What a nice bloke.

[@African.Diaspora.InLondonUK]

From London Brixton UK. If you were not alive for the original ravers. You have missed out big time. Pure niceness...n excitment. Especially if the boys in blue show up..the DJ never stopp playing... attitude!

[@mikebeginshere]

The first named rave DJ I ever heard mentioned in my school playground and I've been following thousands of them ever since.

[@hanselmansell7555]

Undisputed King of disc jocs 👑

[@leou6631]

Carl Cox is a legend and a very nice and accessible guy as well. This is very creative and spontaneous at the same time ... a pleasure to watch and dance with, his energy is contagious and a guy you feel empathy with quite easily. Thanks for your music and your advice Mr. Cox ... we need ore ppl like you in the electronic music galaxy!

[@PhatYodaHF]

Uncle Carl! Absolute Legend! Keep it up!

[@ChrisBmufc]

Seen him many times but Dublin at the start of the millennium in the Temple Theatre was unforgettable. People were going crazy

[@321dilraj]

incredible interview if anyone doesn't know.... one hour in a rave with him will make you meet the creator himself

[@beesting6135]

[@fatimatkhakakhova5359]

Carl cox 3 deck wizard switched to house/techno when the jungle dubplate culture took over. Apparently he said he couldn't keep up with grooverider. Smart move.

[@jean-pierreannandale828]

He should start a djing school

[@dynam1cdrox711]

He has a masterclass

[@MatthewGale-xn4wj]

...he'd say learn it yerself as best way, maybe just show a few basics etc...

[@NadeyaHassan]

"The music industry is one thing, but my life within the music industry is another thing" - I wish the interviewer went deeper into what Carl was speaking about. I'm curious what he was referring to...
