Dj Pete Cosby //BIO//

Peter Holzbar aka Pete Cosby is a Dj, promoter, organizer of parties and beginning producer based in London. First introduced to electronic music at the age of 15 in legendary club Arzenal near the city Kosice in Slovakia where he is from. The club had hosted up to four floors of music, organized 24 hour parties and among the Dj's who played there are Christian Smith, Dj Trava, Michael Burian, Martin Haberland, Tvyks, Sterbinzky, Loutka, Galagha and Gabanna.

At the age of 19 he has moved to London where bought first Cdj's for his 20th birthday. After three years of bedroom djing he took a spot behind the decks in Acton's Tune Inn bar. Next one up was Liquid bar where he became short of as at home. Firstly started playing for other promoters but soon enough established his own night. After three nights under different names, Metropolis party was born. Since then there were nine Metropolis parties held in Liquid Bar in Willesden. It is a free clubnight with full license to run till 4 AM hosting mostly slovakian and czech Dj's living in London. Residents of this night are myself, Dj Peat and Ms Monique.

While organizing and playing at Metropolis parties, Pete has met a lot of talented musician's. And with two of these guys started live project called Pete Cosby //LIVE//. First one was Andy from Oxford who plays one of the sexiest instruments in the world, saxophone. And later on two of them were joint by Paul from Ireland who plays percussion. Paul is a drummer in progressive metal band Deadly circus fire. Among the venue's where they played together are Liquid Bar, Warehouse project in Willesden (London) and Area club in Vauxhall.

After playing so many times at Liquid bar, Pete has got noticed by bigger promoters. First it was NASA promotions and their Echo boat parties and afterparties in June and in September. Then it was unexpected email from Twilo promotion and he has secured slot on the main floor of PACHA club London. Later on he played on second stage for Promised. And at last, prime time of 00:30 to 01:30 on the main floor of famous Pacha club for same promotion agency, was mind blowing. The latest success was playing on the main floor of massive Area club (1500 people) for RepublicArtists and DirtyDubbin in September.

Pete Cosby is definitely the one to keep an eye on. Especially if his starting production will be half as good as his Dj sets.

Music Description and Mixing Style
I love house music and that is what I play mostly. I play funky, electro and progressive house most often. I like to play drum and bass sets as well because its more jumping and its a new challenge for me. My sets always include some sort of saxophone track. The most favorite one is The man with the red face by Laurent Garnier.
