Introduce yourself and tell us about the part of the UK you’re from?
Hi, I’m Alex Virgo and I’m currently living in London.
Tell us about some of your British DJ heroes?
It’s a tough question because there are a lot of very talented British DJ’s but I think for me it’s the people who have been at the top of their game in their respective fields for a long time. To name a few: DJ Harvey, Craig Richards, Mr. G, Andrew Weatherall.
What have you been working on recently?
I have been working on a few remixes at the moment, one of which is for SG Lewis on his new album. I’ve also got a lot of original music backed up which I (with some help) have been finding a home for on labels.
Tell us about the mix, how did you put it together, what did you want to represent?
The mix was recorded at home with some borrowed equipment. This mix is a real mixture of stuff with no specific intention, I just thought it worked well together, I hope.
Talk us through the British music featured in this mix? Which British artists are you most excited about?
The British music I’ve featured ranges from old to new including some forthcoming material from myself. There are a lot of impressive British artists coming through at the moment, too many to name I think.
What is on the cards in the immediate future?
In the next 2 months I have 2 releases forthcoming on Eats Everything’s ‘Edible’ & DJ Haus’s imprint ‘Hot Haus’.
Where is the best place in the world you have DJ’d and why?
Easy, Fabric – Room 1. I’ve been going to Fabric for 10 years & I have so many memories there, so it’s a great feeling to be able to perform there.
