Andrew Weatherall (6 April 1963 - 17 February 2020)

Andrew Weatherall was a key DJ and Producer in UK dance culture. He was there at the beginning of UK club culture in the late 80's just as Ecstasy was changing the dance floors into something more open minded and loved up. He was also a founder member of the Boys Own fanzine that documented what was happening then in sarcastic, trenchant terms - contrasting harshly with the sometimes "fluffy" or hippie-ish rhetoric spouted by some caught up in the acid house movement. He was and will always be regarded as one of the most important and influential figures in electronic music.
