In the early 90s, he started performing live in raves and clubs in Canada. He was then known as "Everything", because his live sets could range anywhere from
techno to
house,
ambient, and
drum and bass. Fred Everything's career as a DJ began in 1993, when he opened for
Sasha at the Metropolis club night in
Montreal. After building up a reputation in the US and Canada, he moved to Montreal in 1996, including
Under the Sun in 2000. Fred Everything became popular in Europe in 1997 when he performed at a festival in
Glasgow, Scotland. Two years later, he moved to
London for three months to do an extended European tour whilst also doing production work with numerous other
deep house artists, including AtJazz, Nigel Hayes, and Bougie Soliterre. Towards the end of the 1990s, a remix of
Derrick Carter's "Life Is Like A Circle", as well as the release of
Under the Sun gave Fred Everything more popularity as a
remixer. He went on to remix a large number of tracks, the most well known of these being his remix of
Bran Van 3000 and Roy Davis Jr.'s track "Watch Them Come". This led to a compilation of his remixes,
From The Deep- A Collection of Remixes 1998-2001, being released by Bombay Records in 2002. Everything also writes articles on house music for the San Francisco-based music journal
XLR8R. He also won two awards at the Mimi Gala that year, which voted him "Best DJ in Montreal" and "Best Electronic Artist". ==References==
