Bio
Guy Hornsby is a London based House DJ and Producer. Like many DJs, he cut his clubbing teeth in the corners of some classic house nights, at university in Sheffield back in 93 at the likes of Love to Be, Rise, Subway, and Republic. Though he moved back to London in 97, he was a late developer digitally... Despite the electronic epiphany back in the mid 90s, he didn't put needle to vinyl until late '99, and began promoting and DJing in London the next year, an association that would take in Heaven, Hanover Grand, Propaganda, SEOne and The Coronet, over the next five years... He's been lucky enough to play at many of the capital's best venues, at the sadly late Turnmills and The End, as well as Neighbourhood, Ministry of Sound, The Rhythm Factory, Heaven, and The Fridge, and enjoyed summer gigs in Ibiza. 2007 and ‘08 took him as far afield as Bahrain and Valencia, and UK highlights included Manchester's Sankeys and the Warehouse in Leeds, and trips to Dublin to play at Space Camp. .. He now runs DropOut in his native London, a raucous monthly shindig at the Horse and Groom in Shoreditch that satisfies his love for house and techno and invites guests from all over London and the UK’s most forward-thinking parties. Summer ’09 saw him travel to Croatia to play the Airbound festival in Petrcane in August. .. Guy also moonlights as a journo, on www.4clubbers.net, concentrating on London's scene, as well as writing most house music reviews and interviews and features, including recent ones on Steve Bug, Ralf Kolmann, Abe Duque and Layo. .. 2006 saw him produce his first track, Downshift, following another summer of inspiration in Ibiza. It was signed by Devore Recordings in February 2007, and was released in December the same year. The follow up, Undertow was signed to European label Drag n' Drop and released in March ’08. A recent remix on Devore surfaced in April that year, and his most recent remixes came out on Liberttas Music in November and on Landed in May ‘09. He continues to spend his waking hours plotting the next chapter......

Influences
.... Back in the early days it was Farley Jackmaster and Knuckles, then mid 90s icons like Carl Cox, Paul Oakenfold, Craig Campbell, Justin Robertson and Sasha at Cream, Love to Be and Rise. .. Up to today, I'm most inspired by Steve Lawler, Carl Cox (who still works a crowd like no one I've seen), John Digweed, Sasha, the whole DC10 stable - especially Dan Ghenacia and Loco Dice, and producers like Tiefschwarz, Anders Trentemoller, Erol Alkan, Paul Woolford, and Sander Kleinenberg. .. And of course, my new favourite, little Guido Schneider. Legend. .. Anything that's electronic, and different, and makes me want to get out of my flat and into a club. ..
