Carl Cox (born July 29, 1962 in Oldham, Lancashire, England) is a popular international techno and house DJ. He began as a hardcore and acid house DJ in the mid 1980s, making a name for himself as the "Three Deck Wizard" in 1988, when, during the Second Summer of Love, he began to play on 3 turntables at once. He has played at such famous clubs as Shelly's, Sterns Nightclub, Heaven, Angels and The Haçienda, as well as huge raves for Fantazia, Dreamscape, Amensia House. He now spearheads two record labels, Intec Records and 23rd Century Records.

Carl Cox began 1996 with the launch of his own record label, Worldwide Ultimatum, releasing his debut self-produced album 'At The End Of The Cliche'. This album was a culmination of influences gained from 18 years of the experience. It took over two years to complete and stormed up the UK charts attaining a position of #22. In addition, he began his own management company, Ultimate Music Management, which has blossomed under his watchful eye and boasts a roster which includes such well-known DJ's as Josh Wink, Laurent Garnier and Judge Jules.

Carl Cox's achievements do not stop there. He has appeared on Top of the Pops and in 1996 was awarded the International Dance Award "DJ Of The Year" for the second year in a row. Muzik magazine crowned him "DJ Of The Year" in their readers poll and he received "Best DJ Of The Year" accolades in Scotland, Ireland, France and Germany. He has graced the covers of England's biggest music magazines including Mixmag, Muzik, DJ and Wax. Cox also joined the prestigious team at London's Kiss 100 radio station with his own "Ultimate Mix" show on Saturday nights and was awarded the "DJ Mixer Of The Year" by its listeners. Currently his radio show is broadcast on the entire Kiss Network 2-4 on Saturday nights (Sunday mornings).

Carl Cox has rocked dance floors the world over and has conquered corners of the globe previously left untouched. He may be the only DJ to have played midnight, New Year's Eve 2000 3 times -- in Sydney, Honolulu and Los Angeles! Maintaining a constant tour schedule, playing throughout the UK and Europe, he recently mesmerized thousands in Israel, South Africa, Japan and Australia. Cox appeared at the legendary Love Parade (one of the world's largest raves) in Berlin playing to over 80,000 people. He is the featured DJ this year at T In The Park, at Australia's Future Music Festival, and continues to play the UK's biggest clubs including Slam, Cream, Lakota and Ministry Of Sound. He was also very notorious in the 2006 Rock in Rio Festival in Lisbon, Portugal

F.A.C.T. 2 is the follow-up to his highly successful F.A.C.T. which sold over 70,000 copies in the UK alone.
