HiFi Sean - Interview

Tons of great producers doing their own thing are doing it for me right now...too many to mention. On Saturday I will be ramping up the energy and the love rush.

Known for his ‘electronic, psychedelic soul’ house sounds and temperature raising DJ sets at Glitterbox, Defected, Homoelectric and more, DJ & Producer, Hi Fi Sean headlines Egg LDN’s Pride Xtra-Vaganza event this Saturday September 11th alongside fellow Glitterbox legend, Smokin Jo.

Have recently stood in for The Blessed Madonna on BBC Radio 6 and remixed Ralphie Rosario’s classic ‘You Used To Hold Me’ and Fire Island featuring Loleatta Holloway’s ‘Shout It To The Top’, Hifi Sean is set to fire up the Pride Xtra-Vaganza party with a sparkling soundtrack that will have everyone on the dance floor.

At a time when we’ve never been more divided, Pride Xtravaganza shines a light for everyone with the right party attitude to come & express themselves in the stripped back underground setting of Egg LDN. Weaving together a magical inter-connected night across the polysexual clubbing culture and electronic music stratosphere. Unmissable.

1. What does Pride mean to you?

Acceptance and peace.

2. Tell us about your first Pride experience, what & where was it and were there any special moments?

I was late to the gay game but I experienced one in NYC in the 90's when I was staying there for a few years on and off and that was a proper party and memories to last forever.

3. What is your favourite part of Pride?

Well I know that product placement by companies who really don't give a fuck is not my favourite part.

4. Do you have a favourite Pride memory?

Hearing Madonna's 'Vogue' played for the first time at The Roxy in NYC during a Pride weekend. The dance floor stopped and clapped after it like at a live concert.

5.Why do you think Pride is still important?

I live across from a graveyard in East London Last week a gay man was killed for no other reason than being gay. THIS !
