Stuart Pilling has carved out a reputation for delivering credible, versatile House sets that connect deeply with the dancefloor. From his early days as resident at the legendary Temple nightclub in Bolton — where he played weekly to 3,000 partygoers — to appearances at Eden Ibiza, Cream Spain, and residencies across the UK, Stuart has built an international profile that balances underground authenticity with professional energy.
His journey has seen him perform alongside some of the biggest names in dance music, including Roger Sanchez, Todd Terry, Sam Divine, The Shapeshifters, Graeme Park, Yousef, Marshall Jefferson and Low Steppa. Today, he continues to shape the scene as a resident for Love to be Sheffield and host of a fortnightly radio show on Grant Nelson’s D3ep Radio Network.

Love to be Festival 2025 - 06/09
6th September 2025 saw the SECOND edition of the Love to be festival and WOW… talk about pulling out all the stops and came back even bigger and better! 3 stages (Main Arena - Pictured, Music Factory Arena and VIP Arena) on offer and a HUGE array of DJs to choose from and this it reallyfelt we were spoilt for choice. I had the absolute pleasure of setting the stage for the ICONIC voice of Ultra Naté, a dream come true for me to do and hopefully I did not disappoint. From then the main arena was packed all the way through until the end of Mark Robinson’s set at 11pm. Immensely proud to have been a part of it and cannot wait until next year.
I highly recommend you jump on next year’s edition… head to the link below to grab yours!
Why is ‘partying’ on the decline?
There’s been a lot of talk as to why clubs are closing, less and less people are making the choice to go out, and those that do prefer day events. This is a GLOBAL problem and I came across a short video earlier this week that touches on some of the reasons from an American standpoint! However the same logic can be applied to the UK too. What do you think?
D3ep in Chelmsford - 20/09
Thank you Chelmsford and D3ep Radio….
Thank you to everyone who came down to ACanteen in Chelmsford in September. Was a great night and check out a couple of the pictures and reviews below.
Was great to be down in Chelmsford for the second tour date in the D3ep Radio UK Tour. Packed to the rafters from around 9pm, the canal side bar is a a very unique and beautiful nightspot made for both relaxed hazy evening drinks or dancefloor hypnotics. ACanteen, owned by DJ & Producer Jimpster was the PERFECT spot for this tour date!
The night was warmed up well and truly from MH Switch that delivered a classy 2 hours of House, journeying between Soulful, Funky and Vocal before handing it off to Head Honcho Grant Nelson, who of course delivered! Hard Times London resident followed with a 60 minute excursion into blissful, driving House before legend Richard Earnshaw picked up in the way only Mr Earnshaw can. Then it was my turn… I decided to play a deeper set than I had originally planned such was the surroundings, sharing music by Random Soul, Jimpster (fittingly), Scott Diaz, Hardrive and Saison amongst others. finally I passed over to Pascal Prevot (pictured) who delivered!! Playing what can only be described as a sublime set… with the classic Todd Terry remix of Martha Wash’s 'legendary ‘Carry On’ was without a doubt the highlight for me!
A superb night and proud to have been part and looking forward to 2026’s Manchester date (watch this space)…
