Podcast #32: Aston Harvey: How To Have A Successful, Long-Running DJ Career

Aston Harvey (above left) is the co-founder of the legendary bass music group Freestylers which has been active since 1993.

Aston Harvey was there right at the beginning of the explosion of DIY dance music in London in the late 80s – but little did he know when he formed his group The Freestylers with his friend Matt 10 years later, that they’d have a 20-year career championing the breakbeat sound worldwide.

How did they do it? What’s the secret of spending three decades in dance music? And what did it feel like going from watching Top of the Pops (famous UK pop music TV show) as a kid, to actually being on it as an adult? In this episode of Tales From The Dancefloor, Aston answers these questions and shares his stories.
