JOEY NEGRO

Dave Lee aka Joey Negro, nasce il 18 giugno 1964 sull'isola di Wight in Inghilterra. Suo padre era un collezionista di dischi americani, in particolare prediligeva il genere soul e funk, dischi che hanno influenzato notevolmente il gusto musicale del giovane Dave e fatto nascere in lui la forte passione per la musica. Questa stessa passione lo porta negli anni '80, dopo essersi spostato a Londra a lavorare

in un negozio di dischi; da qui inizia una carriera che lo porta addirittura all'apertura di un etichetta discografica, la prima per lui: la Republic Records, inaugurata dal suo primo disco "Get Busy" sotto lo pseudonimo "M.D.EMM's". Da li inizia la scalata della sua carriera, fatta di remix spesso commissionati anche da importanti artisti e produzioni come "american dream", "Fly Away" e tante altre che hanno fatto grande successo e lo hanno portato ad essere considerato come uno dei maggiori ambasciatori della house music europea.
