The Story About Dekkster

What does Dekkster do?
Dekkster the HouseHaed is a house DJ and performer. DJ:ing at parties and clubs and sometimes makes his own tracks.

A little history:
I discovered house House Music in 1986 when I bought the Marshall Jefferson “Move your body” record. It took a few listenings before I got hooked… but then. House Music was in my system. It was followed by more of what available back then; it wasn’t easy to get house tracks in Sweden back then. It was about 7-8 years before house was played at clubs and bars at any degree in Sweden. “Move your body” was followed by tracks like “Jack your body”, “French Kiss” etc. A lot of it was old school piano house, and then came stuff like Tyree Cooper’s “Turn upp the bass” etc.

In 1988 I started dj:ing at some smaller venues I western Sweden. By this time house was considered something strange that regular “Svenssons” would not dance to, and rather leave the club than anything. So the crowds were small.
