Thirty years behind the turntables — and still spinning history.

In this opening episode of TIMELESS with Teddy, legendary UK DJ DJ Kofi joins the conversation to reflect on a remarkable career that has shaped dance floors and music culture for decades.

An international turntable specialist, DJ Kofi rose to prominence after winning the prestigious DMC World DJ Championships UK title in 1995. From there, his journey took him across the globe, touring and performing alongside artists such as Gorillaz and Kelis.

In this wide-ranging conversation, Kofi shares unforgettable stories from his 30-year career — from DJing in some of London’s most exclusive clubs and parties, to watching tennis with Grace Jones in a Wimbledon Championships executive box.

He also reflects on a defining moment in music discovery — inviting a then-unknown Estelle from the crowd to perform on stage, a connection that later led to her joining his radio show on Choice FM.

From the clubs to the airwaves, DJ Kofi’s journey is a story of culture, influence and longevity in the music industry.
