David Morales is a Grammy Award-winning DJ and producer who has remixed Mariah Carey, Whitney Houston, and U2, and shaped the sound of house and garage music across three decades. His late-night set at Northwood House in Cowes on 13 June starts at 9pm in the grounds of a Georgian mansion overlooking the Medina, which is not the room most people associate with this kind of music, and the contrast is the point.
Northwood House is a Cowes landmark that most visitors to the island never reach. The Georgian house and its grounds provide a setting that gives a Morales DJ set something a nightclub cannot: history, scale, and a quality of acoustic outdoor space that only appears on rare occasions. Morales delivers the kind of soulful, bass-driven house music that rewards being listened to rather than just heard, and the Cowes night crowd that this booking will draw will understand the significance of the bill.
