Graeme Park biography

Born in Aberdeen and grew-up in Kirkcaldy, Scotland. Worked at Select-a-Disc record shop in Nottingham, England, sourcing obscure House music records that he later deejayed at local The Garage club in 1986. Soon formed the Submission record label and under a variety of names released some of the first UK House material. Was later invited to join Mike Pickering at the decks of the infamous club Hacienda in Manchester, England, in 1987 where he played for a decade. Continues to DJ all around the world and also remixes for many artists. The Haçienda is now an apartment building (the developers asked Parky to DJ at the launch; he politely declined). At the back of the building there is a time-line, carved into steel, detailing the history of the club from Madonna‘s early performance to its closure. And there’s Graeme’s name not once, but twice, carved into the metal for time immemorial. What other DJs (what other venues?) have had that significance in clubland?

    What's interesting in Manchester?

    Manchester has become one of the largest cities in Britain over the past hundred years. Although Manchester is a city with a very rich history, the main focus of its development has always been industry. The center is almost entirely furnished with warehouses and factory buildings, entangled with a network of canals and old railway bridges. It is quite natural that no one gave such kindness to the reduction of production: in the former shops now open fashionable bars, in factory warehouses - designer shops, and under the old bridges "settled" nightclubs. It was for the active nightlife of the city and got its middle name - Madchester.
