Luke McCarthy is a 20 year old student from Southampton. He and his friends work with a very successful local club night called WaxEvents. Every week they get top DJs from around the world to play a one–two hour set. Luke interviewed these artists after the shows and used the expertise gained from these interviews, along with his own experience, in writing this book.
