She began gospel singing with her mother in the Holloway Community Singers and she has also recorded with Albertina Walker in The Caravans gospel group. Holloway was also a cast member of the Chicago troupe of Don't Bother Me I Can't Cope.

Holloway found moderate disco success when she placed eighteen songs on the Hot Dance Music/Club Play chart, including four Number ones, and was featured on Dan Hartman's disco classic, "Vertigo / Relight My Fire". In the early 1980s, she had another dance hit with "Crash Goes Love", before she had her first Number one in the UK with "Ride On Time" by Black Box, which featured vocal samples from her own Salsoul recording, "Love Sensation". This happened again in 1991 when Marky Mark and the Funky Bunch featured her vocals in the chart topping cover version of the song "Good Vibrations". Although both songs were notorious for initial copyright infringements (see: white label), they did help elevate Holloway to legendary status in the dance music/disco community.

A more recent dance chart entry was "Relight My Fire" (credited to Martin featuring Loleatta Holloway), which hit #5 in 2003.

Her latest hit "Love Sensation '06" peaked at #22 in the Dutch Top 40[1] and reached #37 on the UK Singles Chart as well as #49 in Australia.

Holloway died on March 21, 2011 from heart failure. She was 64 years old. She is survived by her four children.

This is just perfect. Laurent was, is and will alwys be the best for me. Still as humble, pasionnate and true to his art as he was more than 25 years ago. Much respect Laurent, this should be a bible for the newer generation !!!! And for some of the odest too ;) !

Excellent interview, his comments about the future are interesting too and whether contemporary house and techno is genuinely pushing the genre forward or overly deferential to what came from Chicago, New York and Detroit originally. Personally, I still hear DJs that blow my mind - Motor City Drum Ensemble being my personal favourite at the moment, musically I guess his sound is quite traditional but he puts it together in a forward looking, slick and danceable way - I just love hearing him play. Laurent has always been a favourite of mine, I must admit I never really felt techno music until I heard him DJ for the first time, he made me understand what it was all about, and I'll be forever grateful to him for that gift. What's more, anytime I saw him DJ he always looked as if he was having as much fun as the crowd, but more than anything else as a DJ and a producer he was never scared of taking risks or trying new things. It's true it's left people confused at certain points, but he's never been staid or boring. A true pioneer of electronic music - European techno and house owes him an enormous debt.

i enjoyed his sets @Timewarp so much ! :o
30:35 He is soooo right, i love long dj sets..
You just get in the mood to dance the whole fucking night.
God i cant wait for timewarp 2016..

this is why i've enjoyed playing on the radio so much in the past... doing 3 hour shows was good already but there were time when i could stretch to 5 or 6 hours on FM radio, taking people on a long journey.

great energy Laurent.
if today people don't come to see you after a set to find out what is the music you played, it's not because they are not interested in, it's just because the can use shazam or internet to get the info.

LaRouchesupport

I suspect you are missing the point here. He said he doesn't get to have that feeling for the last 5 years or so. Now, did his mind happen to go find the music on the internet anonymously you think ? I don't know about that.. But I know the reason why this is so, It has to do with mass cultural pessimism which is literally booming in the west during that period... i.e. people don't tend to see the light at the end of the tunnel any longer. The Political/economic policies used in the west are so doomed and anti human in their essence, and people tend to feel that without even knowing... But, I can assure you that in China you will have no problem finding such feeling today. Cause there is no such thing as cultural pessimism there as we speak, they have an environment of cultural optimism due to proper human like political/economic system in place.. They call it a WIN-WIN economical system being spread around the world slowly, as we speak. While in the West we have a WIN-LOSE economical system I hope you get the Idea...

I agree with Laurent on much of what was talked about in this interview. I'm glad to hear that there are others feeling the way I feel dance music has become and what direction it may be going.

Juliana Botero Duque

This is delightful! Just to be able to travel in time with his stories & knowing a bit more about the history of this magic music is quite a treat. This guy is a total class act. Same with some of the old schoolers, we owe them respect because they were the pioneers of a movement that has reached amazing heights today. Long live electronic music 🙏🏻❣️.

one of the many things that is Jack is the cable that runs from the mixer to the sound system

I hate it when people think house and techno is a drugs thing. It was an African American dance thing, the British turned it in to a drug/rave scene, people don't realise that and this deep and soulful music with a lot of heart just gets forgotten.It's good to hear someone who was there before that and after to explain this. Garnier you're a legend and continue to rock the world!

Willy Junior

@Nik Nak This is why British culture is great.

@Nik Nak Could you stop always think about race when you talk about music ? Techno and house are not an "african american" thing. Without Kraftwerk, which is a "white german" group, or even white EBM and New Wave bands, there isno techno in the first place. Enough with your bullshit, the british developed a lot more the techno and house scenes than the "african american". Thanks to the german and the british, these genres have spread around the world. The UK rave scene was also a fight against the government, it is much more than a "drug shit" thing.

Nik Nak

bookmarkthis Disco music, Soul and Jazz for house. Techno is more complex, aspects of industrialisation in society in Detroit, futuristic themes from technological innovation and capitalist society. Giving techno it's mechanical aesthetic. As house, acid and techno spread to the uk. It was in the late 80s the second summer of love turned new electronic dance music in to a rave/drug thing and it spread to the rest of Europe and blew up in America. Ironically considering that's where it's roots were. At its start house and techno music was about creativity and making new beats, regardless of aspirations of being in the main stream and as far as the current scene goes it still is. But I'm British and can tell you the uk is the worst country to rave in and has the druggies crowd. It's just the society I live in and Britain has always been a society of excess. Sex, violence, skin head culture, drugs, money. This music is all I've got.

J'ai découvert comme beaucoup Laurent au milieu des années 90 quand ma grande soeur achetait ses albums à la FNAC... c'était encore une époque de grande découverte comparé à maintenant où la musique électronique n'a plus beaucoup de nouveaux genres, à mon grand regret.

I remember him playing in La Luna but he was playing New York garage. If you listen to his first ep it's pretty cheesy. I think he picked up on what Cyril (Deep) was playing circa 91 and changed his style..fair enough. Has he ever acknowledged Eric Rug?!

Nino Joy

Maybe we're talking an another story here, but I think Spiral Tribe, and free partys were at the time, and still, very important for the recognition of techno music in france

Laurent Garnier est le meilleur représentant français de la musique électronique dans le monde . Une personne passionnée,intéressante ,ouverte qui sait parler de lui et de sa musique... pour une fois on peut etre fier d'etre français ...longue vie à toi Laurent !!! Guetta sucks,Garnier is amazing ...

baze.djunkiii

8y↑1

i don't get the french part in your post and i don't like guettas music either, but: at least - coming down to what i know - he's one of the few famous EDM guys that actually originated from the real club scene and started out as dj in small underground clubs before, for whatever reason, he found his home in the super commercial bigroom stuff. so i think he potentially could do proper dj sets still because he learned his craft from scratch.

I know the reason why Laurent is saying he doesn't get that feeling of hearing something new that is just so amazing and all...?

Nothing wrong w/ sync. It’s not easy or a cheap way to play. It simply is a shift in focus from beatmatching.. to mixing and content

back in the days it wasn't all about the next drop and tracks were telling a story of their own so there's tunes that need to run for 5 or 6 minutes to fully unfold their potential. they're still out there and those are the ones i do prefer to repetetive tool stuff tbh.
over like 18+ years on the decks i've come down to find myself playing an estimated 12-16 tunes per hour on average and that's defo a good amount to keep crowds busy and excited.

MrZilbon

+Jef Damen I don't see any problem here. But hey, who am I, just go ahead and teach him how to mix.
