INDUSTRY ears are keenly awaiting Eddy Weaver’s next hotly-tipped release this summer. The elusive and relentless music machine that Eddy has skirted on the periphery of prominence for more than 25 years. Eddy Weaver, the force behind the phenomenon, took to the decks at the tender age of 16 and quickly found himself firmly ensconced on the club land stage by 20. Four years later he was charged with the daunting task of charming and chilling Passion at the Emporium’s heaving crowd in The White Room, where his weekly set featured alongside Sasha, Todd Terry and Boy George. Eddy explained: “This was the time for the ‘super club’ DJs to shine. Most of the big names packing out venues had an association with recording.” He was signed by Peerpressure that same year. Eddy (Tastemakerz) were singled-out in music industry magazines with reviewers voting uplifting anthems such as ‘I Got to Love Somebody’ as their tune of the month, and above the lofty heights Moloko and Jamiroquai in the recommended lists. Eddy has remained a constant source in the studio, producing a prolific infectious list of tunes, under a range of pseudonyms and varying genres. Tastemakerz remain on Soundcloud, and Eddy is his middle name.
