Yousef chats to ilikemusic.com
Yousef is a name synonymous with slick, jackin' sleazy beats, edged with an aggressive and relentless groove. He is a DJ and producer that literally lives and breathes house music and who still practises his sets today - always trying to improve his technical abilities. He is also a DJ and producer that knows how to put the fun into house music and loves a good 'Circus'.
"I like music because… It never turns its back on you, always supports your mood and never lets you down." Yousef
Now one of the UK's top DJs, Yousef began his DJing quest in 1991, messing around on a friend's set of decks after a night out at the infamous Shellys in Stoke. I LIKE MUSIC caught up with the man himself to find out abit more about his new album, touring and playing live ...
ilm: Your new album, Friends, is out on October 31st. From reading your track by track description, it appears these kind of 'collaboration' albums take a long time to finalise and release, with some of the tracks written and recorded 2/3 years ago. This must be one of the hardest approaches to an album concept?
