Adam Chapman (Let It Bleed / Local Time)

1)Tell us about yourself….. 
Originally based in Brighton I have been DJing in Aberdeen since moving there for uni about five years ago. In that time I have held residencies with Let It Bleed and Local Time. I have also begun producing my own music and have had releases on Polyptych and Superordinate Music with much more to come in the new year! I also run a music sharing page on Facebook called One Two Five which has now amassed over 3000 members and consists predominantly of members from Bristol, London, Glasgow and Aberdeen. We also run a spin off producer group for the page in order to help up and coming producers and DJ's get feedback on their material. 

2) How did you get into music and DJing?
Music has been something I've always had a keen interest in, as i have grown older and discovered more of it, its gradually turned into obsession. I feel with electronic music being the main type of music i have been listening to, being able to combine your favourite tracks together through DJing just seemed to be the natural progression from listening to it for me, so i was hooked pretty early on. But it wasn't til i moved up to Aberdeen for Uni five years ago that i actually started playing out and eventually got my residency with Let It Bleed and have had the chance to warm up for some of my favourite artists had some really cool opportunities have stemmed from that since!

3) Who/what are your favourite DJs/producers/labels?
I have taken real inspiration the last couple years from the Fuse London crew, with Enzo Siragusa and Rossko being standout favourites for me, also Ben Rau and his labels Meta and Inkal. I like combining some of the styles promoted by these artists with some more melodic, deep styles in my sets.

4) Tell us about your mix…..
The mix starts out with a more minimal, stripped back style of house which i have been following religiously recently and progresses into some more energetic beats as it goes on, whilst still maintaining that similar stripped back vibe focusing on the core groove of the songs. I love changing up mixes with some beats that don't stick to a 4/4 pattern so to wrap this one up i finished with a couple garage tracks

5)What are your future plans?
I'll be continuing my residencies with Local Time and Let It Bleed this year, I will have quite a bit on during February and March which will be announced soon. I've also been invited to play with good friends and Aberdeen party starters Nothing More To Say also in Feb. However its likely my last year in Scotland and so ill be looking to find some gigs to play back home in Brighton once I have moved back, i have been contact with the guys who run Minimo in Worthing, they seem to be running some really cool events, so I am excited to get involved with that.
