ABOUT ME
Ian Redman has been on the Dj circuit for over a decade now. Originally hailing from the Hardcore and Bouncy Techno scene back in the mid 90s when he was in his mid teens, but more commonly known of recent as one of the true pioneers of Scouse House. Ian was one of the original members of chart topping dance act 'Ultrabeat' who reached number 2 in the official UK Top 40 back in 2003 with international club hit 'Pretty Green Eyes'.
Back in 1995, aged 13, Ian received his first set of turntables as a gift off his cousin. With it came a huge pile of unwanted Hardcore & Jungle. This is where Ian’s obsession with dance music began. Ian spent all of his time in record shops listening to tracks and practicing his mixing at home, and after years of blagging promoters got his first gig in 1997 at an under 18s in Southport alongside school friend and fellow Dj, Rob Cain.
Ian eventually left school and went on to secure a job in underground record shop 'Plastic Records' which he soon became manager of. In this time he obtained a residency at the legendary Liverpool nightclub 'The Aquarium'. Shortly after, he was poached from 'Plastic Records' to work for '3 Beat' as the new Scouse House buyer.

Producing a number of follow up UK top 40 chart hits such as "Feelin' Fine" , "Better than Life" and "Elysium (I Go Crazy)". Finally, after their huge success in the charts along with unprecedented response from a world tour, they had built a stellar back catalogue of work.
