DJ Gregory began his recording career in the late '90s, producing tracks for the labels Basenotic Records and Yellow Productions, before affiliating himself with the celebrated Africanism project and ultimately founding his own label, Faya Combo, in the new millennium. Two of his signature productions are "Tropical Soundclash" (2002) and "Elle" (2003). Born Grégory Darsa, he became serious about house music around 1990, when he began making annual pilgrimages to New York City to explore the city's club scene. During the early '90s he became known in the French house scene importing underground New York dance music to France. This is how he met DJ Deep and by mid-decade he was making a name for himself as a DJ, most notably appearing regularly on Radio FG in collaboration with DJ Deep.
In 1996 DJ Gregory made his recording debut with a Cerrone Sample, "Take the Cash & Run," on Basenotic Records as Cheesy D. Then he hits the charts with his remix of cheek “Venus” Sunshine People. The following year he co-produced "Faithfull," a hit collaboration with Julien Jabre as Fantom for the EMI subsidiary Source. Throughout the remainder of the decade, he produced additional tracks under a series of monikers -- namely Bobby Ewing, .G, Prassay, Carinhoso Project, and DJ Gregory -- for a variety of labels, most notably Yellow Productions, home of DJ Yellow and Bob Sinclar. In 2000 he began producing tracks as Africanism, a collaborative project on Yellow Productions; two of his productions in the series, "Block Party" and "Tourment d'Amour," became international club hits.
Established as a hit maker, DJ Gregory founded his own label in 2002, Faya Combo, and released "Tropical Soundclash," another sensation, this one billed to himself. His fifth release on Faya Combo, "Elle" (2003), was also a club smash. During this same time period, he and Bob Sinclar mixed the double-disc Africanism (2002); plus, he and Julien Jabre produced a series of tracks for Basic Recordings under the Soha moniker. In 2004 Gregory was awarded "MOST INNOVATIVE PRODUCER" at the House Music Awards. In subsequent years, DJ Gregory affiliated himself with Defected Records, on which he released Faya Combo Sessions (2008), a three-CD collection of his work (the first disc a DJ mix, the second a compilation of his productions, the third a compilation of productions as remixed by others).
Year 2008: Gregory relocates to Amsterdam, now exploring the Dutch club scene and collaborations with Holland’s finest producers. Meanwhile he takes on a couple of projects, traveling back and forth to Brazil and Angola and working with the local artists.
2009 looks promising so far. More studio projects, more releases, more travel, more collaborations. This versatile, emotional and ground-breaking producer is not done yet so definitely stay tuned.

Résumé des épisodes précédents : Les avis sont partagés au sein du groupe quand aux influences réelles de nos amis musiciens. JL assume Gérard Lenorman comme déclencheur de son goût pour la scène. Sofff voue un culte immodéré à Mylène Farmer. Paco décroche son Téléphone et Pedro fredonne la Compagnie Créole… Snifff (le chat) de son côté se repasse en boucle la 7ème symphonie de Beethoven dirigée par Furtwängler au Royal victoria Hall en 1949. Palem seul considère que Sonic Youth est le chaînon manquant. Est il le dernier des rockeurs ? Pour ce qui est de la direction artistique des nouveaux morceaux le mystère restera donc entier… Vous en saurez plus au Rigoletto le 14 novembre pour un concert plein de nouveautés, en compagnie des splendides Twins sisters et des non moins magnifiques Bagro’s (337 rue de Belleville 75019 Paris métro Porte des Lilas, à partir de 20h, 5 euros seulement mais c’est une peccadille).
Hello my Friend I Am very happy, i have a new Ep published by MAYA RECORDS, legendary label from New York.The tunes are a magic and beautiful deep house history.
Restoration Record’ s highly
awaited eighth release is the most powerful sonic weapon to face up
this hard times. Captain Power and the soldiers of the future will lead
the riot of the machines in order to restore the analogue kingdom.
Humans and machines, blood and fire, souls and transistors are
operating together to fight the conformism and the loss of values
imposed by the mass communication of this post-industrial era.
THIRD
SIDE is the new operative group of Restoration, formed by MARIEU,
LUCRETIO and by resident dj of Panorama Bar STEFFI (Klakson/Ostgut
Ton).“Ready to Dance” is a dancefloor disco-bomb, funky and sexy but
minimalistic at the same time. Very essential in its build-up, its bass
line is addicting and relentless and its bass drum is powerful. We are
ready to dance, it’s time to jack! ANALOGUE COPS.. "Chamber" is a
strong dark track in which a massive 808 drum explosion runs together
with an ultra-pitched down voice sample. Rushing percussions, piercy
hi-hats, a breathless progression. An experiment which turns into a
solid club tack.
On side B, “Still me” represents LUCRETIO’s
vocation to neoclassicism. The time disappears and a gospel organ full
of motown reminiscences reminds the most soulful works appeared on
Planet Earth. Dramatic and sweet, it’s evocative and hopeful.
LUCRETIO’s track on Rst006 appears on Tama Sumo’s “Panorama Bar - Mix
Cod”.
“Mauzy” is MARIEU deepest track on Restoration. Beat-down
smashing 909 drums, punchy snares, delightful piano chords, sharp
cymbals, a praising voice. A track for a spiritual elevation, a track
to dance until the last second. A track to listen to a million of
times.
listen to our latest release [BWO028] CORRUPT COPS EP - GARETH 2DARK supported by Randall Jones, Mike Wall, Dean Facer, Paul Loraine, Kiko Martinez, Igor Marijuan, Tony Rodriguez, DJ Mini and many more!! The first track 'Corrupt Cops' perfectly displays Gareth 2Dark's passion for big drum arrangements, rolling, techy basslines and wonderful melodic chord structures. The second track on the EP 'Northern Lights' has a more progressive Tech House touch and with its huge synth patterns and smoothly arranged drum layers it surely shows why Gareth 2Dark is known as the label's 4am Techno head. Watch out for these tracks it will make every crowd go wild in the early morning hours!!
