Event description

David Guetta is a household name in France, with two gold albums to his name, but it’s only in the past few years that he has captured the world’s attention as both a super-star DJ and acclaimed producer. He crafts hook-laden but cool pop songs with cutting-edge electronic beats. David drives himself to make Dance music that reaches beyond clubbers and takes the essence of his late night indulgences into the hearts and homes of everyman.

Guetta was a pioneer of French house from ’88 – initially as a DJ, then producing his first track with vocals by Robert Owens in 1992. Like fellow Frenchman and friend Laurent Garnier, David started off his career in the gay clubs around Paris’ Les Halles district in the mid-80s, going on to champion early acid-house and hip-hop.

However, he really made a name for himself in the mid-90s as one of the key catalysts of Parisian nightlife by promoting evenings at such renowned Paris hot spots as Folies Pigalle, Queen, Bataclan, Palace and Les Bains, where he invited DJ icons like Little Louie Vega, David Morales, DJ Pierre and Roger Sanchez to join him on the decks.
