Absolutely shocked he got me into dance music back in the day.

Met him at a carrera GT race meeting at donington and he was really into his racing.

Left behind some absolute classics for us to listen to though

RIP Maxi :(


Maxi Jazz, the lead singer of dance group Faithless, has died at 65.

Writing on Facebook, the group wrote: "We are heartbroken to say Maxi Jazz died last night. He was a man who changed our lives in so many ways.


"He gave proper meaning and message to our music.

"He was a lovely human being with time for everyone and a wisdom that was both profound and accessible. It was an honour and, of course, a true pleasure to work with him.

"He was a brilliant lyricist, a DJ, a Buddhist, a magnificent stage presence, car lover, endless talker, beautiful person, moral compass and genius.


"Rollo, Sister Bliss & The E-Type Boy x".

Faithless formed in 1995 and is perhaps best known for its trance hit Insomnia.

They have headlined some of the biggest festivals in the world, including Glastonbury.
 
As an indie kid I was never a fan till my gf dragged me to their pyramid stage performance in 2002 which converted me. We even managed to get god is a DJ played in church at her funeral.

Seen them numerous times since and they were amazing every time, Maxi had so much energy on stage, must checkout his more recent stuff, RPI :(
