Few artists have shaped the birth and evolution of dance music like Dave Seaman. With a career spanning over three decades, he has left an indelible mark on both the club and pop scenes, crafting unforgettable musical moments that resonate long after their creation. As the inaugural editor of Mixmag, he played a pivotal role in amplifying the voices of a generation swept up in the electronic music revolution. From headlining festivals like Creamfields to collaborating with icons like Kylie Minogue, Pet Shop Boys, David Bowie, New Order, and U2, Seaman has been a constant presence on the global music stage, performing in over 80 countries.
Seaman’s journey began in 1990 at Shelley’s in Stoke, where he shared the stage with emerging talents Sasha and Laurent Garnier during the heyday of acid house. Teaming up with producer and friend Steve Anderson, the duo recorded as Brothers In Rhythm, birthing the seminal rave anthem ‘Such A Good Feeling’ which became a UK Top 20 hit, while also issuing the landmark ‘Mixmag Live Volume’ 1 with Carl Cox in 1991 – a release that stands as one of the first ever commercially available mix compilations. Without a doubt, his relationship with Renaissance is one of the most renowned in dance music, with Seaman having contributed 10 mixes to the revered series. Global Underground view the Brit in a similarly lofty light, having secured his services to mix their Melbourne, Buenos Aires, Cape Town & Lithuanian volumes.
When it comes to labels- Stress Records and Audio Therapy are two defunct imprints that definitely are no strangers to the biggest names in the electronic music worldwide. Today, Dave Seaman’s passion to exhibit boundary-breaking talent is as strong as ever. Via the independent record label Selador Recordings which he co-owns with long-time friend, Steve Parry, his inspired A&R has helped nurture some of the finest groove-merchants in dance music, releasing many different colors of house and techno. The label’s roster speaks for itself, with Hernan Cattaneo, Rodriguez Jr, Robert Owens, Timo Maas, Danny Howells & Hannes Bieger all contributing tracks and remixes recently.
In this current world of limited shelf life, ever-diminishing attention spans, and fast-moving, here-today-gone-tomorrow disposable club culture, it is the mark of true talent and dedication that Dave Seaman is always on the frontline of electronic music.
