Voted the #14
DJ in the World by DJ Magazine’s prestigious ‘Top 100’ poll and winner of “Best
American DJ” at the WMC IDMA’s in 2005, Christopher Lawrence
is recognized worldwide as one of the World's top DJs and producers.
Dubbed "A Superstar DJ" by the US’s URB and “One
Of The Most Popular DJs On The Global Circuit” by DJ Magazine,
Christopher Lawrence is one of the biggest,
most respected and popular
names in dance music today.
Named the #3 Trance DJ in the World by BPM Magazine’s ‘America's
Favorite DJ’ poll for 2006, Christopher was outranked only by Tiesto
and Paul van Dyk. A recent recipient of the "Best DJ" award
at the Dancestar US Awards, Christopher's production skills, coupled
with his ability to take international dancefloors by storm with his
tough techno trance sets, place him in high demand worldwide. Once an
outsider in a world dominated by European and UK DJs, Lawrence has risen
to the top of the international dance music heap. He is now considered
one of the key global players and America’s leading dance music
export, playing main stage at the world’s biggest festivals and
superclubs.
Described as an "All Round International Jetsetting Superstar" by
M8, Christopher clocks up over quarter of a million frequent flyer miles
a year and a list of international events too long to mention. In the
past year alone, Christopher has toured China, United Kingdom, Mexico,
Ibiza, Australia, Taiwan, Netherlands, Panama, Peru, Puerto Rico, Japan,
Nicaragua, Costa Rica, Malaysia, Colombia, Singapore, United Arab Emirates,
Greece, Russia, El Salvador, Turkey, Ukraine, Slovenia, Panama, Brazil
and Canada. One need look no further than the top clubs and festivals
to find Christopher’s name.
Meanwhile, back in the US, Christopher continues to be one of the countries
most sought after DJs, headlining high profile events from Arnold Schwazzeneger’s ‘Terminator
III’ party to Sony’s ‘Playstation 2 Tour’ and
the famed Coachella festival. He was also the only US DJ invited to headline
all three of the inaugural Ministry Of Sound, Cream and Gatecrasher tours
of America.
Described as "A Highly Respected Producer" by Mixmag, Christopher
won a preliminary Grammy nomination in 2002. With a discography of groundbreaking
tracks, Christopher’s notable releases ‘Attention’, ‘Scorcher’, ‘Shredder’,
'Navigator', 'Interceptor', 'Renegade', 'Rush Hour', 'Cruise Control'
and ‘October’s Child’ have been hammered by DJs from
Paul Oakenfold, John Digweed and Paul van Dyk to Tiesto.
This past several years have been Christopher’s biggest to date
on both the DJ and production front, following the release of two artist
albums. His debut album ‘All Or Nothing’ and the follow up, ‘Un-Hooked’,
a retrospective of his work for Hook Recordings, both topped the iTunes
dance charts and met with widespread chart and critical acclaim from
the worlds toughest critics including Washington Post, Rolling Stone,
Remix, DJ Magazine and CMJ. Album tracks were licensed by media outlets
from Clear Channel and MTV to Electronic Arts, the worlds largest video
game company.
Christopher also gained attention with the release of his new website,
which was nominated in the “Best Music Website” category
of the Webby Awards, which is considered the Academy Awards of web design.
Designed by the award winning 2Advanced, Christopher’s website
currently receives more traffic than any other DJ in the world, besides
Tiesto. Check it out at /www.christopherlawrence.com
In the late nineties, Christopher established himself as one of the
US's biggest selling DJs selling over a quarter of a million mix CDs
following
a string of record breaking releases including 'Rise', 'Temptation',
'Christopher Lawrence Presents Hook Recordings’, ‘Empire’, ‘United
States of Trance’ and 'Around The World'. Christopher's most recent
mix ‘Exposure IV' has been described by Remix as “The U.S.
Trance Master’s peak-of-career mix” - reiterating the fact
that Christopher continues to be one of the World's most evolving and
respected DJs.
Christopher’s label Pharmacy Electronic Music is officially launched
in May 2006 with his first mix compilation in four years, ‘Subculture’.
On the big screen, Christopher has appeared in ‘Midsumernight's
Rave', as well the documentaries ‘Liquid Vinyl’, 'Intellect', ‘Put
The Needle On The Record’, ‘World Party On Tour’ and ‘American
Massive’ to name a few. A music video for Christopher’s single,
Freefall, shot at California’s Electric Daisy Carnival has also
been featured on television around the world.
In the world of international dance culture, there are DJs who are
leaders and those who are followers. Christopher Lawrence is a true
leader.
