Oli Power's first experience of dance music was back in Plymouth, when the
rave scene was spreading across the UK. He was a mechanical engineering
student at Polytechnic South West ( or University of Plymouth? It was a long
time ago!), when it all began.
Oli walked into the Academy nightclub in Plymouth, an old converted theatre.
Having paid his 10'er to get in, he entered into a world that simply blew
him away by the intense energy and vibe. Converted, he went on to study
sound engineering, with the dream of setting up his own studio.
Basing himself in the French Alps, Oli combined his love of the mountains
and sport, with practising his mixing skills on his precious budget decks.
Oli was given his first break by a Dutch bar owner, Jos, who invited him to
play trance and funky house events to audiences of young, international
clubbers. It was not before long that he became a very popular resident DJ.
Over the next couple of years, he was invited to play at nightclubs and bars
all over the Alps, where he had several residencies. In 2006, a promoter saw
him performing and asked if he would play in Holland at the festival,
'Frequence Outdoor'.
Oli Power has since been recognised for his unique funky style of tech house
and has been playing across Holland, France, Belgium and in the summer of
2008, in London, he played at 'Ibiza Nights' and ' The UK Independence of
Music' at Volstead.
Oli has now based his main studio in the UK, working as a producer and DJ.
He continues to speak to music loving crowds through his funky style of tech
house with its unique minimal and progressive twist.
