Electronic Generations is the product of the live hybrid sets the artist performed from his Melbourne studio during lockdown.
The album, which is scheduled for release on September 16th via BMG, is the result of live hybrid sets played from Cox’s Melbourne studio during lockdown, when he remixed, produced and created a host of new music.
“I feel very lucky to have the opportunity to share this album,” he said. “As a live artist and a DJ I get to play all over the world and to see people enjoying the shared experience of being together and dancing.”
He added: “I’ve pulled together all the elements that I’ve learned from watching those crowds, added my sound and tried to bring you a true electronic music experience.” The digital version of the 17-track album arrives with a second volume of pre-remixes by collaborating artists such as Juan Atkins, whose version of album track “Deep Space X” is due for release this summer.
It also features collaborations with Nicole Moudaber and Fatboy Slim. Moudaber, who produced her version of album’s track “How it Makes You Feel,” joined forces with Cox for the second time since the pair’s 2014 release, “See You Next Tuesday.” It follows the release of Fat Boy Slim’s pre-remix of “Speed Trials on Acid.”
My maternal grandmother, Ermine Burke, was born in Barbados. She lived a simple life on a farm with my step-grandfather, John Branford. They’d kill one of their animals for a Sunday roast. My sisters [Andrea and Pamela] and I swore we’d turn vegetarian because of it. One minute we’re outside playing with the animals, the next they’re being served on a plate.
My mother, Patricia, had me when she was 21. She’d moved to Manchester with my father, Henry Carlyle, in 1958 and I came along a few years later. They were young and migrated with the idea that they would earn a lot of money and go back to Barbados one day. They finally returned in 1984 but my sisters and I stayed in the UK.
Mum worked as a midwife and a district nurse; she’d whiz around in an Austin 1100 to visit pregnant women. She was on 24/7 for her work, but she loved it. She made sure our Sundays were family time.
A huge influence in my career was dance music industry heavyweight Judy Weinstein. She was supportive of me as a young DJ coming through the ranks. I met her in 1990 at a music conference. Judy encouraged me to continue in my quest to be a world-renowned DJ. To know she took an interest in me as a human being says a lot about who she is.
I have always had long-term relationships and always wanted a life partner. Being a world-travelling DJ made it difficult to navigate a relationship because I was always away or on stage at 2am. Having a girlfriend didn’t work that well with those hours.
I got married in 1993 to Rachel Turner. She was 22 and I was 32. We were married for three years, but she felt I was wrong for her and I felt the same. It was difficult to split because when I went to the altar I meant marriage for life. It was horrible to go through that.
I am not a player. My parents were together until they died – Mum six years ago and Dad last year of COVID-19. They taught me what mutual love and respect looks like.
I’m in a relationship with my partner of 12 months, Gemma. She has an 11-year-old and I am conscious of being a good role model around him. We’re taking it easy relationship-wise. I haven’t mentioned it on social media because that can be a relationship killer. But I’m nearly 60 and want to find love and stability in my life.

My sisters used to gang up on me, and we’d always fight for Mum and Dad’s attention as kids. I am Mum’s favourite, but there was always a day when one of us was favoured more than the other – which meant extra perks, such as more food at dinner time. My sisters and I found it difficult to understand where we fitted in because we came from a minority family in the UK when there was a lot of social change. I was always around white people and not a lot of black people.

We’d play kiss-chasey at primary school. I never got chosen by the girls as their first choice; they tended to go for white guys before me. I always ended up kissing the girl I had a crush on.
My first kiss was with Dawn Sales. She was 16 and I was 17. It happened at a party at my parent’s house. I had one too many shots and we just started kissing. It was young and innocent and I’ve never forgotten her. I was a late bloomer when it came to girlfriends. I didn’t lose my virginity until I was 18.
Mum had her heart set on me being a pianist but totally supported me when I told her I wanted to become a DJ. She ordered a mobile DJ kit with turntables and amplifiers from a catalogue and told me if I earned £2 a week she’d buy it for me. I’d started studying electrical engineering and had a job at Peugeot but the decks got me in the end.
