Mark Ronson has been a DJ longer than he hasnât: his entire adult life, sometimes working four or five nights a week, since he was 18. âWhat is that?â He casts his mind back and counts. âTwenty-five â no, 27 years. Jesus.â
In this time, he has been a staple of the New York scene, the studio partner of Amy Winehouse and a superproducer of artists from Ghostface Killah to Lady Gaga. He has his own instantly recognisable, vintage-leaning sound and is the invisible touch on songs that define not just years but decades.
But there was a moment last year when Ronson wondered if the pandemic might be his cue to bow out gracefully, by forcing him out of the club. âI really did think for a minute: OK, maybe Iâm never going to go back to DJing again,â he says. âLike, whatâs the elegant evolution here, without looking like an idiot who just tried to stay at the party too long?â
