Biography
British producer, remixer, and DJ Dave Seaman stands as a longtime figure in progressive house, having amassed an extensive catalog of remixes, original productions, and DJ mixes. Active as a party DJ from the 1980s onward, he assumed the editorship of Mixmag and shifted the publication from a DJ-focused newsletter into a mainstream magazine that chronicled the emerging acid house and rave movements. The magazine’s mix series launched with a Seaman and Carl Cox mixtape that is widely acknowledged as the first legal, commercially released DJ mix.
In the early 1990s Seaman assembled the production team Brothers in Rhythm, which issued a handful of original tracks yet gained greater recognition for its remix work, reworking material by non-dance artists such as Garbage, Placebo, and Alanis Morissette while also writing and producing for Take That, Kylie Minogue, and Pet Shop Boys. The group’s alter ego Brothers Love Dubs delivered the well-known early-1990s club hit “The Mighty Ming” on Stress Records, the pioneering progressive house label Seaman founded. His mixes have appeared across multiple volumes of the DJ Culture, Mixmag Live!, Renaissance, and Global Underground series, including split editions with Sasha + John Digweed, Masters at Work, BT, and other established DJs. He has additionally served as resident DJ at Miami’s Groovejet club.
During the early 2000s he launched the Audio Therapy label, which released his own 12"s alongside records by numerous up-and-coming producers. Mix CDs on the imprint followed, beginning with 2005’s This Is Audiotherapy and continuing with a second volume in 2009. While continuing to deliver Renaissance and Global Underground mixes into the 2010s, Seaman adopted a more tech-house orientation for 2013’s The Selador Sessions. Beyond Borders: Berlin appeared on Armada two years later.
