Jody Wisternoff

A pivotal figure in the UK's rave scene since the early '90s, Jody Wisternoff is renowned for his keen ear for talent and his role in shaping the sound of the Anjunadeep label, where he co-curates the chart-topping annual compilation series. His career began back in 1986 at the age of 13 as a finalist in the DMC World DJ Championship, and he quickly became a mainstay of the UK rave scene, performing at legendary venues like the Lakota club in Bristol and for iconic promoters such as Fantazia and Universe. A chance meeting with Nick Warren in a record store led to the formation of Way Out West, the pioneering duo behind several UK-charting singles and the UK dance number one hit ‘Mindcircus’. Their 1997 self-titled album garnered both critical acclaim and commercial success, and 20 years later, their Anjunadeep album ‘Tuesday Maybe’, became a firm favourite among the Anjuna fanbase and saw popular reworks from electronic music royalty including Guy J and Ben Böhmer. Since then, Jody has released two solo studio albums on Anjunadeep, including the acclaimed ‘Nightwhisper’, which has garnered over 20 million streams and received support from BBC Radio 1 and SiriusXM Chill. Across his distinguished catalogue, Wisternoff has amassed over 70 million streams, with his tracks earning praise from DJs including Eelke Kleijn, John Digweed, Nora En Pure, Chicane, and more. Now, Jody Wisternoff presents his new album 'Welcome To My World' set for release on December 06 on Anjunadeep.
