DJs from all genres of dance music have used his tracks on their mix CDs. From Jeff Mills, Laurent Garnier, to Danny Tennaglia, Carl Cox, and Paul Oakenfold. The diversity and appeal of cowie's music is obvious. He has recorded and released around 150 12" solo releases under many aliases during his career and continues to release quality productions on many labels.
Described as “The Master Of funk Techno" by Carl Cox, Cowie simply keeps pushing his own barriers when DJ’ing or in the studio. There is no doubt that Chris Cowies ability to adapt and change to the ever changing dance scene is undoubtedly one of his strengths. Now Chris has dropped all the aliases and exclusively DJs and produces under his own name, pushing his unique sound around the globe…. He has performed across the world from Russia and China to Australia and the US.
Chris Cowie's achievements are to much to mention here. Two of his solo albums, Chris Cowie 'Best Behaviour', and Vegas Soul 'Pure' were voted best albums of the year in many UK magazines. His 'Pure' Album came 6th place out of 100 in the Highly Acclaimed UK Dance MUZIK MAGAZINE Awards.
This album was only beaten by huge acts such as The Chemical brothers, Underworld, Leftfield", Daft Punk and Moby. He was also nominated for the highly prized BBC Radio One Essential Mix of the year along with 5 other DJs all of which are massive names in the dance scene. "I didn't win, the honors went to a joint back to back DJ set with Sasha and Darren Emmerson which is hard tag team to beat. But I was very happy to be nominated".
