After years of graft, Dudley Strangeways’ only problem now is tearing himself away from the studio or from behind the decks. Possessing expert timing and sixth sense of what dancers will respond to, Dudley Strangeways has developed a classic sound that meets today’s dance floors head on.

Strangeways seamlessly puts a contemporary spin on deep, acidic and tech house. Initially consolidating his reputation as a resident of the notorious Back To The Future parties at Nottingham’s Stealth, he is the latest resident for 52:50 based in the Midlands. While keeping things close to home, they have brought the vibes at the emerging Face in Birmingham and the Sankeys in Manchester.

Now confirmed as resident at Tahanan in Milton Keynes, the Notts based artist is also on the radar of seminal clubs such as Back To Basics and regularly appears in London at venues such as Peckham’s grimey Busey, 1001, and The Egg. Skills honed alongside Jordan Peak Terry Francis, Phil Weeks, Eddie Richards and Brett Johnson are now taking him onto the international circuit with gigs across Europe.

On the production front, Dudley’s reputation has rocketed with his trademark driving, edgy house is pressed to wax by labels such as Tomoki Tamura’s Holic Trax, Klasse and Black Key, finding favour with the likes of Xpress 2, Ethyl, Iron Curtis, Fish Go Deep, The Mountain People & DJ Sneak. In the pipeline are appearances on Moda Black, Albion, Rogue Society, Manucci's Mistress, Leftback, Large and an eagerly anticipated Todd Terry remix.
