Allister Whitehead needs no introduction. He began Djing at a mere 17 and was shortly offered residency at Nottingham’s “Koolkat”, playing alongside the likes of the ubiquitous Graeme Park. Another residency at Sasha’s career making club “Venus” and Whitehead’s reputation began to bloom. His big break beckoned when Mike Pickering, then of M People, asked Allister to cover his DJ’ing slot at the infamous Hacienda club. Immediately the club offered a residency, as did Cream where the Whitehead following was born. Being the first guest DJ ever booked at Golden, he then went on to achieve nationwide recognition playing at the Ministry of Sound, Gatecrasher and just about every other club in between. On the strength of this Whitehead set up his own club “Zero-G” in his hometown of Nottingham. Here he continued to draw crowds of 1500 +, as well as numerous bookings to play elsewhere. His successes were made timeless with the sale of his compilation albums for Fantazia and Ministry of Sound going Gold and Silver. However, his talents don’t stop there. Whitehead is a skilled and respected producer and remixer. His remix of Gala’s “Freed from Desire” was the catalyst to the track selling over 500, 000 copies across the UK alone, spending weeks at No1. Released previously the record only charted at No87. With Allister’s skill “Freed from Desire” became the biggest selling record in France of all time. He has also worked with the likes of Martha Walsh, Natalie Imbruglia, Robbie Williams, Christina Auguilera, Mutya, Lemar & The Soho Dolls and following these achievements released a couple of tracks on his own record label “Sporting”. His first release Blackheadz “ Saturday Night” got fantastic feedback, with high chart ratings in the press as well as from fellow Djs. His second release sold out within days. Following this, Whitehead was required to remix Rainstar’s “Breakdown” for WEA records, which rocketed to the number 3 slot in the Hype chart. Other remixes have included his legendary IRS vs John Paul Young “I Love You Baby”. Watch this space….
