Dean Rudland is a British DJ, compiler, and general manager of record company Acid Jazz Records.
Initially interested in 1960s soul music which he found via the early to mid-1980s mod revival scene, Rudland began DJing at club nights before meeting Acid Jazz Records founder Eddie Piller.[1] As well as assisting with the signing of artists on Acid Jazz, Rudland helped put together the label's popular compilation series "Totally Wired".[1]
Whilst working for Acid Jazz Rudland met Tony Harlow, who worked for Blue Note Europe. The pair released a number of compilations which collectively became "The Blue Series".[2] Throughout his career he has relaunched EMI's Stateside label as well as worked for Fania, and currently works for Ace Records as an A and R consultant, running their BGP label[2] as well as continuing to work for Acid Jazz.
