This month, the elusive, up-and-coming south London DJ known only as Love Remain is feeling like he’s come full circle. He’s been preparing for his headline live show at Fabric, the first club he ever went into. “I was 18,” he tells me, before quickly revealing that this is, of course, a lie. He was 17. Fabric’s bouncers are a lot stricter these days, but the club’s musical halls are just as hallowed as they were back when he first snuck in.
“It’s really amazing,” he says, “I went with my management to look at the venue [ahead of the gig] and to just walk around there in the day, it's nice to see it. It felt strange going in there when there's no one there. It's somewhere I've been in loads - I’ve always had aspirations of playing there and being able to do my own thing.”
