 "A wild ride of a life... Oakenfold's story is extraordinary" - The Times


Follow Paul Oakenfold – world-renowned DJ and dance music pioneer – as he tells his incredible story of a phenomenal career at the beating heart of dance.

Paul's journey takes him from a musical baptism in 1980s New York and underground club nights in London to running a seminal dance record label and a legendary trip to Ibiza that introduced him to trance and changed the face of dance music forever.

A breathless adventure through music, Ready Steady Go is a story of dance, trance, excess and success.©2022 Paul Oakenfold (P)2022 Welbeck Publishing Group Entertainment & Celebrities Music Celebrity Hip-Hop Success

This book is a great insight to the God of EDM. His rise to the top from humble beginnings is such a good listen.

Adversity/seek the positives/commit/succeed. What a journey. Live in New York is still the best album I ever bought.

Overcomes everything

Back to the 80s and 90s, fake I D, dropping and dancing at M.O.S. oh, they were the days, planet perfecto bullet in the gun is still played in my house to this day. The brilliance and multi layered talent of Oakey makes him more than a super star DJ, he's a legend of his craft. Totally understand why he didn't read his audio book, but Robert Elms did it justice. I absolutely loved the book and brought back memories of my clubbing days. for a fan of dance trance and everything in between, it's a must listen. 5 stars.

Loved it

I thought I knew a fair bit of Oakenfold having been there at Cream in the late 90s, but wow what an adventure and congratulations to the man.

I have just finished the book with my son who found it positively inspiring (maybe without so many f bombs - such is life) but the positive motivational piece of following your dreams, going to the unknown, keep reinventing and disrupting makes Paul a legend and this book showcases his entrepreneurial spirit and personal journal. Also thank you for opening up on your very personal and emotional journey at the end was extremely moving and humble.

All the best and highly recommend those curious on Paul, the history of dance music or just want some pep talk on going out there and succeeding with life.
