DJ Maxwell (3)

Maxwell is an Australian DJ currently living in London UK, playing Hard Dance, Hard House and Hard Trance. He also plays House and Techno under his PetaMax alias. Maxwell has been mixing dance music for over 20 years in both vinyl and digital formats. He started out in the late 90s on 2 belt drive turntables after falling in love with the music played on Fresh FM in Adelaide. As soon as he was able to go clubbing, he fell in love with the hard dance scene in Adelaide and was a regular in clubs across the city including Heaven and Rise. Maxwell had a residency at the Indigo Room and played in other venues around the city. Life eventually got in the way of music and he took some time out for university and work, but in the early 2010s his love of mixing was re-ignited when he was introduced to digital mixing and since then he has been honing his skills, focusing on the vocal hard side of hard house. Maxwell has played for Tidy/Ideal, closing out the 2017 Summer Gathering Festival and has played on line ups alongside DJs including BK, Andy Whitby, Technikal, Steve Hill, Dark by Design and Rob Tissera. He regularly plays at events for Hard House Korruption, has also played in Brisbane, Australia for Beatwave and has played in various Adelaide Clubs in the late 90s and early 00s. Maxwell has recently joined the Global Hard House admin team. Maxwell produces under the name Pete Maxwell and has 2 Toolbox top 10s and a number 1. His next track, a collab with Matt Clarkson, is out on Tempo Trax in November 2020.
