Stu Allan – Biography

Stu Allan has been one of the UK’s top Hardcore DJ’s since the very beginning. His hardcore radio shows on Key 103, Manchester were legendary and his productions as Visa have been some of the all time classics (included on this album with new mixes).

Stu regularly does sets and this mix includes some of his biggest classic floorfillers as well as showcasing some of his brand spanking new and exclusive mixes and productions which are being released on the Nukleuz label (www.nukleuz.com). You can catch Stu at Vibealite, TFI, Illusion, Diztruxshon, HTID and many other hardcore events. The big Daddy of Hardcore in the mix. Raise your hands and salute DJ Stu Allan.

In 1982 Stu Allan took up DJing. Between 1984 and 1986 his mixes/remixes were featured on Piccadilly Radio, Manchester on various shows including Timmy Mallet, Chris Evans and Tim Grundy.

In July 1986 he was given his own show on Piccadilly Radio. He was originally filling in for the regular DJ on a 6 week vacation, but the reaction was so great from listeners that he was signed on permanently. He began featuring Hip Hop and a new style of music called House. “Love Can’t Turn Around” by Farley Jackmaster Funk was the first record Stu played on the radio. This track got the attention of the people in charge of the station and Allan was asked to explain why he was playing this “music”. He said he believed this was what listeners really wanted to hear (having seen clubbers going wild to tunes like “Jack Your Body”, “Jack The Groove” and many other underground Chicago label tunes at his gigs), and convinced them that his choice of music was right when the station’s ratings improved massively. During this period Stu produced a soul show called “Souled Out” and a hip hop show called “Bus ‘Diss“. He would also have a house hour which would feature the seamless mixing he is known for.

Stu Allan was also a regular DJ on the Vibealite rave scene, performing at many of their events across the North of England (Taken from Wikipedia)
