Top British techno champion Dave Clarke has renounced his unofficial title of Britain's angriest DJ, claiming he's given up his trademark vices of port cigars and ridiculously fast cars in favour of a new mild mannered existence.

"Now I'm pretty relaxed, I have nothing really to be moody about," said Dave on his latest press release. "I'm still a maverick, probably just a bit more delicate about it."

The press release accompanies his first London gig of the year, happening on Thursday February 6th at System (Wardour Street, Central London).

"I was called moody a lot in the old days," he conceded.

"But if anybody went through what I went through - not being paid, dealing with it by myself, having to do shit that made no sense, getting no satisfaction out of it - I think they'd be moody as well."
