Planes, trains, and automobiles... one way or another John Acquaviva is always on the go and off to the next club or party. John began Djing in the late 70s and locked down his first club residency in 1982. Since then, he has appeared at well over 4000 parties with over half of them being at the international level. He has DJ'd for a cumulative audience in the millions all over the world, and has the air miles to match.
John has built up an extensive resume of DJ mix CD's over the years anchored by 6 volumes of the critically acclaimed annual Saturday to Sunday series. 2004's Volume 5 of the series was followed by the very well received “Back to Basics - New School Electrohouse [DJ Mag's 'Mix Compilation of the Month' – December 2004]. John continues to work as a producer and remixer, creating and reworking for such label and artists as Mute, Hor Speil Music, Serial Killer, Mantra, Fad Gadget, Alex Dolby, Deco II & DJ Karotte.
John began his international career in 1989 with Richie Hawtin by founding the influential and world-renowned Plus 8 Records. John and Richie not only launched their own careers but also those of Dan Bell (as the trio Cybersonik), Kenny Larkin and Speedy J to mention just a few of these luminaries. In 1992 they also founded Definitive records to feature house music, launching the likes of Robotman, Barada, Omegaman, along with a host of other house talents. Although noted mostly for his DJÃing, John was actively involved as engineer, producer and artist in the formative years of these artists and labels.
As one of the most accomplished and versatile DJs around, John is well known for his vast record collection of over 50,000 pieces of vinyl. His collection spans a significant period of club music and 12" culture from the early disco days till present. He is also well known for always having the newest and latest music long before anyone else. He is acclaimed as "a DJ's DJ," noted for his versatility, and is regarded as one of the very few DJ's who can enhance any room, party or festival by appealing to a number of different crowds and sounds
Always looking forward and at new possibilities, John has branched out beyond the core of DJ"ing and music production to further immerse and pioneer music techonology. He has been instrumental in the discovery and launch of FINALSCRATCH, Beatport.com [the worlds leading electronic music download service] and DMD - a new Euro-Japanese 3g phone music delivery service.
