Timeline
2001 – 2024
David Kendrick. Born the year that England decriminalised homosexuality for consenting adults aged 21 years and over, in private. He went to school in the Northeast Midlands. He studied Architecture at Leeds School of Architecture during the embryonic Rave & Acid House scenes, where his love of repetitive beats spawned an early DJ career, running the Gay Rave ‘Jungle’ at Leeds’ iconic Warehouse club. As a designer he is self taught & was inspired by the visual language of late 20th century dance music and the International and New Formalist architectural styles he saw as a young kid in Toronto, Canada. David spent the majority of the 90s as a DJ, resident at Manchester’s iconic Haçienda (Flesh, Freak nights) and was the Saturday night resident DJ at Ben Kelly’s other creation; Factory Records HQ which was relaunched as Paradise Factory: a multi-floor gay club. The transitional alchemy from H.O.U.S.E to H.T.M.L. happened by chance with a job at Defected Records in 2001 as their webmaster…. and the rest is history as they say.
