Dave Clarke (born 19 September 1968) is an English techno DJ, producer and radio presenter. BBC radio presenter John Peel named Clarke "The Baron of Techno". ==Early life== Born in Brighton, England, United Kingdom (UK), Clarke was educated at Brighton College, but ran away from home at the age of 16 after his parents separated. Since the age of 8, Clarke started getting into music and technology, and to him, "there was no alternative but to go professional."〔(Dave Clark Isn't Going to Stop Breaking Boundaries at Tomorrowland ) Popspoken. Retrieved on 9 September 2014.〕 After a brief period of homelessness, a friend offered him temporary accommodation and Clarke continued to develop his love for music—initially hip hop and post-punk. The Damned was an early influence for Clarke and he continues to listen to the band during his music career:
During this period, his employment included a low-paying job in a shoe shop; however, his musical ambitions were established at this stage of his life: "I used to tell people when I was working in a shoe shop that I would one day travel the world based on a career in music... I was that driven." Musical success began when he attained a DJ residency at the Brighton nightclub "Toppers", which rivalled a club night run by John Digweed (then known as DJ JD). Clarke later explained that he regarded the period "as an apprenticeship".〔 Clarke's music reviews were also published in the now-defunct ''DMC Update'' magazine and he reviewed the inaugural single by Aphex Twin. Clarke acknowledged in 2013, "having my reviews in there (Update'' ) helped me to get the vinyls I needed to be out there DJing."〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Dave Clarke (techno DJ)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
