Profile GeneratorFor the past 4 years, Colin Sales has gradually transformed himself from bedroom/private party dj, to one of Glasgow’s most recognised names within the city’s house community.
Born in Paisley, and currently residing in the city, Colin has made the successful transition from clubber to dj in a remarkable space of time, earning him respect within the house community not only in Scotland, but also on the continent.
His style of music crosses many genres of house music, offering the clubber an array of emotions and feelings, whether it is in the bar before the night has taken shape or in the club where his sets reach peak time. His musical tastes range from his soulful sound that he plays in the bar (or sometimes the club!!) to a warmer, funky house sound, right through to proper pounding electro house that he plays peaktime in the clubs.
Away from the clubbing environment, Colin has become an accomplished radio dj, showcasing his music selection and skills to the world on his weekly Kinda Groovy Radioshow, that can be heard on a selection of the worlds biggest internet radio stations.
Instantly gaining respect from his clubbing peers, Colin was given the prestigious honour of hosting the Defected In The House radio show in 2005, showcasing some of the worlds leading DJ’s in the mix including Martin Solveig, Bob Sinclar and Copyright. This feat made all the greater with the title of world’s greatest house label being bestowed on the ever expanding UK label.
Colin has recently made a move into the world of journalism, as he is now writing reviews for Defected.com and EQ Magazine.
As well as being an established house DJ, Colin has been working on the production side of house music, and now has a number of releases and remixes under his (big) belt on various labels including Reelgroove, Slammin Sounds, Influential House and Open Bar Music.
Within four years Colin has established a reputation within the house community that is set to expand over the coming years. Working for clubs and organisations such as Colours, Hed Kandi, Godskitchen, Creamfields, and internationally for All4Music in Poland, and Tokyma FM in Switzerland, Colin is building a reputation and career for himself that shows no sign of slowing up.
You can catch Colin every Saturday at Dusk in Stirling, and at a selection of forthcoming Colours events including ColoursFest and Live At Loch Lomond.
