| | | Joti Sidhu / artists (J) | | Real Name: | Joti Sidhu | | Profile: | Joti Sidhu, born April 26th 1971 in Wimbledon, London, Moved to Brighton at the age of 15. It was Acid House in 1988 that got Joti hooked on electronic dance music. It was also the same year that he started djing in bars and clubs around Brighton in the UK at the tender age of 17. His first international gig was in Paris in September 1990, at "Fort de Champigny" with D-Shake and other headlining acts of the time. It was shortly after this that Joti embarked on the next natural step, making music. Enter the Legendary Atari Computer, built in MIDI, rock solid timing and the original Steinberg Cubase. A marriage that would take Jotis understanding of electronic music to a new level.
In 1992 he was taken under the wing of Dave Allen (most recognised as Producer of The Cure from 1985) and Andy Wright (Production on Massive Attack, Dave Stuart, Eurythymics) working as a programmer and given the job title of "Groove Consultant", he worked with various acts such as Gianna Nannini , The Commitments, The Human League (Producer Mark "Spike" Stent). Programming sessions in top studios such as The Hit Factory, Rak and Olympic to name but a few. Around this time, a friend, Nick Smith (who would later go on to form Semsis) suggested Joti went to an outdoor party with him at an exclusive venue in West London, put on by a rcord company called Dragonfly...... the name of the place "The Quarry". This was where Joti first got his taste of the Psychedelic sound that would change his life. Mike Maguire(Juno Reactor) and Serge Souque(Total Eclipse) were doing their legendary dj double act and Joti was hooked. Here he met Dino Psaras, who Joti also known around Brighton as a dj. They decided to go straight to Jotis studio after the party and along with Steve Ronan, Ayahuasca was born!
