Dave Seaman: "An esteemed German dream team join forces for a melodic tour de force"

THE contribution to dance music that Dave Seaman has made in over three decades in the business is massive.

Starting at the very beginning, back in the 80s, Dave turned the iconic Mixmag from a newsletter for DJs into a magazine covering all aspects of dance music and club culture. As editor he steered the Mixmag ship well into the 90s providing the solid foundation for the publication which is still going strong today.

Dave also formed Brothers in Rhythm with Steve Anderson, later joined by Alan Bremner, doing production work for the likes of Pet Shop Boys and Kylie Minogue alongside remixes for David Bowie, New Order, U2, Michael Jackson and many more.

Dave is also well known for his releases on the famed Renaissance Masters Series and Global Underground mixes.
