South Beach Recycling is London-born, Dorset-based DJ and producer Gary Ellis. Forty years around records, club nights, radio and underground parties have shaped a sound drawing on spiritual house, jazz, soul, Detroit, Chicago and dub.

Since house music hit UK shores in the late 80s, he has run a record shop, worked across three radio stations and promoted underground parties. His focus remains simple: strong records, proper rooms and line-ups that make musical sense.
