Vince Watson

Delsin Records, Glasgow

The disruptive age of 7 is where Vince Watson began his journey towards electronic music. After excelling at music in secondary school, Vince gradually opened up into Hip Hop and early House Music before electronic and industrial elements finally caught his attention. His school needed a new DJ to play at the local weekend disco and this is where the story really started taking shape. With a selection of records unlike any other young DJ around, it wasn't long before Vince realized he wanted a musical career. Just as the House scene broke large in 87/88, the experimentation began with other styles and the stage was set for what was to be his introduction to Detroit Techno and Electronica. As the 90's took shape, the build up of music equipment started. A course in Music Technology was attended, learning about a new technology called MIDI as well as regular trips for piano lessons to the Royal Academy for Art, Music and Drama in Glasgow. What followed? First releases on Dave Angel's Rotation label, a fruitful DJ career and later on stuff for labels like Ibadan, Planet E, Delsin, Alola or Orphanear. This is an exclusive mix Vince.
