From the acid house explosion and unregulated warehouse parties to global festivals, clubs, and Ibiza residencies, Carl has not only witnessed the evolution of electronic music,  he helped shape it.\nIn this conversation, Carl reflects on over 30 years of DJ’ing, discussing how his craft has evolved, how the music industry has changed, and why he still believes deeply in the power of the dancefloor. He also shares candid thoughts on the current challenges facing the British entertainment industry, particularly for grassroots venues and emerging artists.\nOne of the most compelling moments sees Carl open up about a terrifying personal experience that nearly caused him to walk away from music altogether, a reminder that even icons face moments of doubt, fear, and vulnerability.\nThe interview also connects closely to Carl’s autobiography, Oh Yes, Oh Yes!, which charts his journey from a south London scaffolder to one of the most respected and influential figures in global dance music,  a story rooted in passion, perseverance, and belief in the culture.\nThis episode is part of Early Doors Club’s wider mission to document, preserve, and celebrate the people and stories that built club culture, while reflecting on how that culture continues to evolve today.\nEpisode highlights:\nCarl Cox on 30+ years behind the decks\nHow DJ craft and technology have evolved over decades\nThe rise of acid house from Chicago to UK raves\nThe importance of unregulated party culture in shaping British nightlife\nConcerns for the future of the UK...","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/pmX0qdu_pUHKpXfjtKQ282Jp5f-V-NSDrZcNuHX0R6A/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS9iYmE1/ZWFiMWY2NzE5YmQ3/NWU3NGMyNDFhNTIx/ZDA4OC5wbmc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
