EROL ALKAN BIO

Erol Alkan is a musical evangelist. The 27-year-old DJ from north London, hailed by The Face as the new Fatboy Slim, believes in the idea of a 'conveyor belt of good feeling'. He finds a piece of music, he loves it, he plays it in his club, Trash, and the crowd goes wild; he's creating the soundtrack of their lives. With his 6ft 6in frame curled over the decks, he straightens up every now and then to punch the air and grin out over the heaving crowd. He clearly loves having the power to make people lose it on the dancefloor, saying: 'It's hit that point now where it's almost magical. You can put something on that you know they've never heard before and they're really going for it.' Alkan first started making waves as the man at the forefront of the recent wave of bootlegging, or 'plunderphonics', one of the most exciting musical adventures in a decade.
