From Los Angeles - EDDIE AMADOR @ Centro this Friday Jan 15, 2009

Ediie Amador BIO:

It begins in Los Angeles in 1998. Eddie Amador pens the now-famous lyrics (“Not everyone understands house music…It’s spiritual thing, a body thing, a soul thing…”), sets them to a hypnotic, pulsating beat, and the seminal dance club anthem “House Music” is born.

A legendary DJ, producer, and remixer, Eddie is considered by many a house music prophet. His love for the music and his ability to create unforgettable house anthems made him a fixture in the club culture of LA, but it was “House Music” that really kicked his career into high gear. With its irrepressible groove and deep, soulful lyrics, “House Music” was championed by the best DJs on the planet, Carl Cox, Danny Teneglia, Deep Dish, Masters at Work, Frankie Knuckles, Roger Sanchez, Pete Tong, and Danny Rampling.

“House Music” went on to become a global hit and secured Eddie an album deal with Deep Dish’s Yoshitoshi label, yet it was his next track, “Rise,” which proved that Eddie Amador was no one-hit wonder. Catapulting into the Top 20 of the UK national chart, “Rise” propelled Eddie to the status of a world-class DJ, and he was now performing at such super clubs as Ministry of Sound in London, The Queen in Paris, Centrofly in New York, Crobar in both Chicago and in Miami, Stereo in Montreal, as well as Pacha and Space in Ibiza.

Eddie has gone on to perform in over 40 countries on six continents. While playing the dance meccas of the universe over the last few years, Eddie remixed tracks for labels like Strictly Rhythm, Ovum, CAUS-N’FF-CT, Jive-Electro, MCA, Universal, King Street, MUTE, Azuli and Deep Touch. Meanwhile, he was still turning out prime cuts for Yoshitoshi and his own Mochico imprint.
