Thaddeus has been a mainstay on the North of England Club circuit for over fourteen years and is currently resident at the long-running Sunday night institution ‘Sabbath’ at Essential.
Thaddeus’ DJ debut was in the loft of the legendary Paradise Factory in 1995. “It was a lucky break really. I think I was in the right place at the right time. They offered people the chance to DJ in the loft on a Saturday night, peak time. I gave in a playlist and soon afterwards I got a call offering me a slot….. and then it dawned on me - I’d never used a set of decks before so how the hell was I gonna get through this one. I was always more interested in being on the other side of the decks, on the dancefloor. On the night I went in before the club opened and had to get the lighting guy to show me how to use the mixer coz I was clueless! Fortunately I managed to mix all the tracks pretty good if I do say so, so I was chuffed. Loads of people had turned up to support me and I was absolutely buzzing. The atmosphere in the place was amazing. The loft had a bouncy dancefloor and it was definitely bouncing that night. From then on I was hooked. I knew I had to DJ” After this initial appearance a fortnightly residency soon followed where he remained for much of ‘90’s, playing his blend of funky, chunky, vocal House with a disco and Old Skool flavour, mixing in different records and a’capella’s all the time to tease and lift the crowd.
Thaddeus has consistently played crowd-pleasing sets to an enthusiastic audience over the years and has mainly played as a resident, building a rapport with his audiences. Past residencies have included the legendary Paradise Factory, Danceteria, Strangeways, Club Odyssey as well as countless guest appearances in the UK and Europe.
The move to music production has been a relatively recent one (winter 2005) and one which he is passionate and enthusiastic about. He has writing arranging and production credits with ‘The Electrobelles. He is now working on original material for the dancefloor, Although ‘The Electrobelles’ is his current project, he is always looking for new collaborations and ventures so feel free to get in touch, using the contact us form on this page.
