Hot Since 82 has had the most whirlwind of years. 82 real name Daley Padley has gone from growing up in Leeds to playing sets at Coachella, back 2 backs with the legend, Pete Tong, and recently setting up his own record label, Knee Deep In Sound, named after his breakthrough 8 minute deep-house stomper 'Knee Deep In Louise'. Live, Padley is a permanent must-see for house music fans like myself. Playing in a dark tent at this year's Parklife festival as part of Heidi's Jackathon line-up, his deep-house and techno knowledge meant the whole two hour set was essential listening. Dropping tracks like , 'The End' and 'Shadows' from his debut album 'Little Black Book'. I say listening, because you could only just about see Padley through the green strobe lights wich amped up the rave atmosphere. His sets are always rammed and with an upcoming UK tour in October, it can't come soon enough!
