Craig Bartlett is on a mission to spread the Soulful House message all over Wales and beyond!

Resident of the most talked about night in Wales, LAMERICA, playing the best soulful house, a night which attracts the best crowd around and brings the biggest names.

Craig Bartlett. 37 years of age, Husband & Father, DJ/Promoter.

Craig Bartlett began DJing in 1990, being a Resident at the only two nights dedicated to house music in Cardiff at the time.

In 1993 when a brand new concept "Spice Of Life" was born Craig was asked to be involved. This night changed the face of clubbing in Wales introducing the city to a wider audience and it also meant that guest DJ's knew where it was, (Cardiff that is). Craig has since played all over Wales and West.

Craig has been fortunate enough to travel extensively spreading his Soulful House Ethos around the world at such places as Club 13 and Propaganda (Moscow), Club Terrarium, Bon Bon, Estonia, Poland, the Ukraine and Babylon, Izhevsk, King Karmehena Club, Frankfurt, Denmark, Take 5, D club, Switzerland, and Soul on the Beach for the past three years at the Winter Music Conference in Miami.

Over the past Summer seasons Craig has guested regularly at Pacha and the Space Terrace for the Ministry of Sound. Es Paradis, Summun for Garage City, El Divino for Soul Heaven, El Divino for Kinkymalinki and El Divino for Mn2S.

On not so distant shores Craig makes regular return visits to Belfast, Glasgow and Edinburgh.

Back on home turf Craig plays regularly at ZooGrooveStereo, Garage City, Mn2S, Faith plus many more.

This year saw Craig hosting a stage at Escape into the Park, and also djing at Bloom Festival.

INFLUENCES
The people who have influenced Craig over the years and who have ultimately led him into the DJ profession are MAW, Frankie Knuckles, David Mancuso, Larry Levan, David Depino and Joey Llanos to name just a few. Craig has been very fortunate to play alongside a lot of his idols and feels very lucky to have his dreams realised.

LAMERICA
Craig Bartlett has now firmly established himself as the Ambassador for “Proper” House Music in Wales and the West.

LAMERICA has grown in popularity since its inception in 1998. LAMERICA has built up a reputation, second to none for promoting real house music. The glamorous house night has gone from strength to strength. The vibe is friendly, educated, electric and second to no one! The music policy is real house music, from sweet soulful house to urban jackin house and everything in between. LAMERICA draw the biggest DJ’s from the likes of, MAW, Louie Vega, Kenny Dope, Tony Humphries, Frankie Knuckles, Derrick Carter, Junior Jack & Kid Creme, Sandy Rivera, Joey Negro, Timmy Regisford, Karizma, DJ Spen, plus live performances from such names as Arnold Jarvis, Barbara Tucker, Michard Watford …

LAMERICA recently celebrated its 9th Birthday in July 2007.

What about 2007 and the future? More of the same”, lots of big name DJ’s and great venue production, bigger, bolder and stronger. LAMERICA will be (if not already) one of the best nights in the UK.

LAMERICA is not just a night it’s a way of Life!
