The Valley

In his native Ayr, in Scotland, Ewan McVicar revitalised the town’s club culture, sparking a movement that remains fervent and committed, four years since it was first formed. This is typical of Ewan’s community-focused outlook.

Still a relative newcomer to the international circuit, his commitment to building a local scene in Ayr, combined with his DJ skills and fearless approach to production make Ewan one of the most promising artists of his generation. Nominated in the Breakthrough DJ category at the DJ Mag Best of British Awards in 2020, he is ascending rapidly up the ranks.

Grammy nominated, platinum-selling record producer Paul Michael Woolford aka Special Request has been working tirelessly for over 20 years both in DJ booths globally, and in a myriad of recording studios, to redefine and reinvent all shapes of dance music.

You are as likely to hear his music on the radio as you are in a basement club or on a runway for designers like Fendi, Givenchy, Burberry, Marc Jacobs and many others. He has built his own body of work under the name Special Request into a vehicle that can pretty much cover any creative endeavour, to the extent that the late Virgil Abloh designed the artwork for one of his releases. Woolford reworked Virgil’s debut single with Serpent With Feet ‘Delicate Wings’ for the 2021 release through Sony/Columbia.
