‘Saying that I love Fabric would be an understatement. Fabric is my Saturday night and my Sunday morning. It’s an integral part of my life. Nothing makes me happier than walking down those 43 steps. I remember in December 2011, I’d been in bed for three days with tonsillitis. I arrived, had a double espresso and proceeded to dance non-stop for six hours. I sweated so much that by the time I got home there was not a single trace of bacteria left in my body. That morning, I established that Fabric is an essential part of a healthy lifestyle.
‘After almost ten years, it’s all a blur with some intensely vivid memories. However, Sunday mornings in Room Two, from 5am until close, is special for me. As the “weak” depart, you’re surrounded by dancing machines who are there until the end. Some of my highlights include sets by PAS, Sandwell District, O/V/R, Vatican Shadow, Samuel Kerridge and every birthday set by the wonderful residents Craig Richards and Terry Francis. I’ve always said that the day Fabric ceases to operate is the day I leave London. As long as Fabric is here, then I’ll be here. That won’t change.’
