Green Velvet (aka Cajmere) studied chemical engineering at the University of Illinois, where he exposed himself to the energetic culture and lifestyle of house. In 1991, midway though graduate school, Cajmere returned to Chicago to pursue his dream of producing house music. The Relief label also gave birth to the experimental and eccentric, afro wig-wearing entity we know as Green Velvet – a Cajmere alter ego.

Green Velvet produced the first release on the Relief label, “Preacher Man.” He followed up the debut release with “Flash” in 1995, which brought about unexpected praise and worldwide recognition.   Today he’s released on Soundcloud the 2016 Reboot of Flash with remixes from Eats Everything, Latmun, Oliver Dollar, Alberto Ruiz & more..

The full release comes out on 22nd July on his Relief Records…

Grahame Farmer’s love affair with electronic music goes back to the mid-90s when he first began to venture into the UK’s beloved rave culture, finding himself interlaced with some of the country’s most seminal club spaces. A trip to dance music’s anointed holy ground of Ibiza in 1997 then cemented his sense of purpose and laid the foundations for what was to come over the next few decades of his marriage to the music industry.
