While some DJs emerged out of the early house movement to settle into a comfortable and predictably lucrative careers as superclub-orientated superstar DJs, Andrew Weatherall has always followed his own musical compass.
This week, Matt Everitt discusses his career from the first track he ever DJ'd (the WWII War film theme 633 Squadron) onto his residency at the UK's first acid house club Shoom, then as the producer of Primal Scream's genre-breaking Screamadelica and his later work delving into the darker side of vintage rock n roll and techno - with the humour, style and impeccable musical choices that one would expect from one of contemporary music's most innovative and original figures in music.
