John Creamer Biographie

John Creamer as a DJ has been playing his trade for over 6 years at the top
now but it is fame as one half of the production team alongside Stephane K
that has seen them propel into the higher reaches of the dance music
industry. John and Stephane have produced and remixed some of the biggest
tunes of the last two years. Remixes that have provoked near riots on the
dancefloor include Kosheen's 'Hide U, which won them remix of the year at
the 2001 Muzik Awards, their brilliantly twisted vocal remix of Satoshi
Tomiie's 'Love In Traffic', New Order's 'Crystal', the irresistible
'Waiting' by Nat Monday and Rapture's classic anthem, 'Iio'. Both "Hide U'
and "Iio' became massive global hits, with both records entering the UK Top
10 at No.6 and No.3 respectively.

Their production work has also been equally as successful, with projects
such as 'I Love You' and 'Wish You Were Here' earning them worldwide
respect as producers in their own right.

John Creamer has also been impressing dance floor crowds far and wide
behind the decks. Having supplied the soundtrack to last years summer
season, John Creamer is bracing himself for a similar success story this
summer as he spreads his dark and twisted beats even further afield. He
will be the duo's representative for their Bedrock Tour in July and August,
to promote their compilation due for release in August. On his travels he
will visit The Pod (Ireland), Pacha (Budapest & Buenos Aires), Renaissance
(Ibiza), Istanbul and Cult (Switzerland) amongst others. He is also a main
player in the massive Smirnoff event in NYC where he will be headlinin. In
the last 2 years, John has already managed to conquer some of the worlds
most respected clubs including Cream (UK), Renaissance (UK), Bedrock (UK),
Pacha (Portugal), Soda (Athens), and Zouk (Singapore). Not forgetting his
home in the US, where John is fast becoming a household name. He has played
the legendary Spundae (San Fran, LA and Vegas), Axis (Boston) and numerous
loft parties in New York.

Their history? There's lots of it... from Stephane's days playing bass in
hardcore bands to John's trombone efforts on a ska record at age 16; from
John's first ever house production (a birthday gift for a friend) to
Stephane's critically acclaimed house tracks with DJ Katsu (under the name
Madam; from Stephane's tracks (as Bipath) with Satoshi Tomiie to John's
long years as record store kid and later, A&R man with Eightball Records
and Satellite Records.

Dark, deep, weird and sexy are words that best describe the sound that's
currently getting them rave reviews from DJ heavyweights such as Danny
Tenaglia, Danny Howells, Pete Tong and John Digweed. In whatever the duo
choose to remix, it's the vocals that tend to be the deciding factor. 'Love
In Traffic' features an unsettlingly affected ('unique and... strange'
according to Stephane), but complete vocal from ex-Sneaker Pimp Kelly Ali
over spare percussion, a throbbing kick drum and a few head-twisting
effects. "I just love the vocal stuff," John says. "Good, big-room vocal
tracks are hard to come by right now, so that's kind of what we wanna gear
things towards."

There's no doubt what Stephane and John stake as their musical roots.
Stephane cites DJ Pierre's classic 'Atom Bomb' as his all-time favorite
record. If there's any irony at all, it's that with all of this classic
house to draw upon, Stephane and John's sound clearly falls into the
category of Right Now. "Everything's just kind of morphed into one these
days," says John. "All the trance guys are playing the deeper tech stuff
and tribal stuff, all the borders just kind of collapsed this year. It's
good timing for us."

The duo's current remix projects include Sinead O'Connor's 'Troy' and the
soon-to-be-huge summer smash, 'Mooney' by Dove. Individual projects with
Prince Quick include Stephane 's 'Insane Poem' and Creamers 'Fuck Sonnet' -
a track that despite having been only sent to 15 DJ's and journalists is
already causing a major stir. A New York dirty, deep and twisted house
track that lays a truly filthy monologue over the cheeky, spiky house
groove. Watch out!
