Justin Robertson is a pioneering DJ, producer, and remixer whose influence has helped shape the UK’s electronic music landscape since the early 1990s. Emerging from Manchester’s vibrant club scene, he first gained recognition as the mastermind behind the seminal club night Most Excellent, which became instrumental in bridging the gap between acid house, techno, and indie. Developing a reputation for eclectic, genre-blending sets, Robertson quickly found a home at institutions like Hacienda and Back to Basics.
His passion for musical exploration led him to launch his “Deadstock 33s” project—a blend of leftfield electronics, psychedelic undertones, and raw groove, showcasing his range beyond club bangers. He’s also celebrated for his remix work, reinterpreting tracks for iconic artists such as Björk, New Order, and Happy Mondays. Beyond DJing and production, Robertson is also a visual artist and published author, bringing a distinct aesthetic and intellectual curiosity to everything he touches.
With a career that has continually embraced innovation and reinvention, he remains a respected and inspirational figure in global dance music and beyond.
