    FERGIE BIOG

    ”I just wanted to go back and take time to rediscover what the music meant to me”

    Fergie (aka Robert Ferguson), a DJ of international standing for the past decade, has never had a stronger and more vibrant aural identity. Playing the kind of music he wants, determined not to be held back by perceptions and tags from the past, he continues to be a global representative for electronic music by consistently breaking down underground barriers and bringing new music to the people, without compromise.

    There is no doubt that Fergie has firmly re-established himself as a producer of innovative exciting music that really takes a hold of you. Having dedicated himself to the studio for the past few years,where he totally immersed himself in his passion for music, this has been a true labour of love for

    Fergie:
    ”I just wanted to go back and take time to rediscover what the music meant to me; how it made me feel, the buzz, the excitement. To find a sound that would reflect my individuality as a DJ and producer and in some way to recapture all of that in my productions” (Fergie).

    Clearly he has found his sound and the results are very evident in the free flow of original
    productions and remixes being consistently supported by the likes of Sasha, Digweed, Dubfire,Laurent Garnier, Miss Kitten and Slam. His ever growing ʻExcentric Muzikʼ label has been hailed by Carl Cox as his “label of 2008”, with Cox going on to license several productions for his forthcoming Space compilation this summer. Underground cuts such as ʻAnonʼ, ʻTo The Coreʼ and Blackeye-Pʼ have helped to instill Fergie and Excentric at the forefront of serious peak time electronica. Excentric off-shoot label ʻRekluseʼ (launched at the tail end of last year) has got off to a storming start with first release ʻ2nd To Noneʼ by Umek refusing to leave the Beatport techno charts almost half a year after itʼs release, peaking at the number 1 spot along the way

    A steady stream of new material and remixes on many other labels of distinction have proven the Fergie sound to be one that is in much demand. ʻIrelandʼ and the remix of Namito ʻCity Of Godsʼ (on Great Stuff), the remix of King Uniqueʼs ʻHinodeʼ (which went down so well they asked him back to rework one of their biggest ever tracks, ʻDirtyʼ) and not forgetting the all conquering remix of Umekʼs ʻGatexʼ, these have all firmly established Fergie as a proven seal of production quality for many.


    A collaboration project with electronic compatriots Reset Robot & Alan Fitzpatrick is an outlet for a deeper, darker, more twisted side to Fergie, with the recent ʻGas Maskʼ / ʻRattlesnakeʼ gaining momentum from DJ Hell, Luciano, Adam Beyer and Ivan Smagghe amongst others.
    Then thereʼs James Lavelle, who has consistently supported Fergieʼs work and drafted him in to his remix his renowned Unkle Project with devastating results. By the end of 2009 this will have been joined by remixes of Slamʼs seminal classic ʻPositive Educationʼ (Soma), Smith & Selway ʻWork itʼ (Tronic), Yousef ʻLetter to No Oneʼ (Circus Recordings) as well as Reset Robot ʻSoftieʼ on Excentric.

    2009 will also see Fergie playing clubs Shine, The Stiff Kitten (Belfast), Pressure, Sub Club
    (Glasgow), Circus (Liverpool), Firefly (Nottingham), MOS (London), Shindig (Newcastle), The Tripod (Dublin), Meganite (Ibiza), Exit (Lithuania) and the Sonar festival (Barcelona), as well as international tours of France, Austria, Germany, Bulgaria, Italy, Brazil and Canada.
