Nagajan
Based near Nottingham in the UK, Nagajan had plenty of inspiration to draw upon when he first started getting involved in dance music back in 1996. He first started a Sound Engineering course in Leicester, progressing onto the turntables six months later. Nagajan’s early influences were from the likes of Tuff Jam, Todd Edwards, Kenny Dope, Kerri Chandler, DJ Disciple, Armand van Helden. From here he took on residencies at Director’s in Milton Keynes and Lime Light in North London. Nagajan took to the underground house scene after listening to a set by the Inland Knights at The Bomb in Nottingham and since has not looked back.
Wanting to get even more involved in the business, Nagajan went on to opening his own record shop called In The Groove Records. The shop quickly developed a strong reputation for House Music, with regular shoppers including Nic Fancuilli, Yousef and the MYNC Project. In The Groove quickly became a regular spot for many club DJ’s from in and around the Midlands. Here at the shop was where Nagajan met Ian Straker (Strakes) and Peter Morgan (Pete Dafeet); quickly discovering their talents in dance music Nagajan went on to set up Lost My Dog with his two friends. As well as running the record shop Nagajan also got very involved in club promotions and setup nights in Loughborough, Leicester, Nottingham, Sheffield, and Manchester.
