Guest DJ D-PET performing.
This week's guest DJ is D-Pet, a distinguished Deep, Melodic, and Progressive House DJ and Producer hailing from Bristol in the U.K. D-Pet's journey into electronic music began at the tender age of 15 when he first experimented with his pair of decks, captivated by the euphoric sounds of Trance that defined the late 90s rave scene in rural areas of the UK.
Drawing inspiration from the vibrant culture of the rural rave scene, D-Pet co-founded a sound system with a close friend, performing in venues and at raves across Mid-Wales during the early 2000s. His passion for electronic music only deepened as he moved to Nottingham and later Bristol, cities renowned for their incredible underground electronic music scenes. It was here that his musical palette expanded to include Breakbeat, Electronica, and Drum & Bass.
Influenced by iconic artists such as Underworld, Orbital, Way Out West, and Autechre, D-Pet took a brief hiatus from the music scene before making a triumphant return in 2017. His comeback was swift, leading to a residency on Platinum Radio London, where he played alongside an impressive lineup of DJ talent.
D-Pet's unique style takes listeners on an immersive journey through Deep House and Progressive House, often interweaving elements from various electronic genres, creating an atmosphere that is both melodic and captivating. His regular shows spotlight emerging artists and underground labels while also featuring the latest club anthems and classic tracks unearthed from his extensive archive.
In 2020, D-Pet took a significant step forward by launching his label, Tantalum Records. The label has already seen four successful releases, with many more exciting projects lined up for this year, further solidifying D-Pet's position as a key player in the electronic music community.
In After Hours 418, Hypnotised and D-Pet showcased a blend of Progressive House and Techno. Key artists featured in the show included Massive Attack, Paul Sawyer, and Simon Doty, delivering an eclectic mix that kept listeners engaged throughout the set.
