London-born former DJ and human potential expert, Christopher Dines, has been busy public speaking. Having DJed at legendary club nights such as Defected in the House at Pacha, Ministry of Sound and City Loud at Turnmills in his early twenties, Dines has made the transition onto the global human potential platform as a rising star gaining applause in Hollywood. Dines has been endorsed by Hollywood’s Celebrity Image Consultant Daniel DiCriscio, Former Led Zeppelin, Ossy Osborne, The Who tour manager Richard Cole, 24- Emmy Award winning journalist Michael Cogdill, Hollywood Emmy award winning screen composer Michael J. McEvoy, music business personality Eddie Gordon and, former BBC Radio 1 DJ Danny Rampling. Christopher’s brand new book “A Ticket to Prosperity” is released on Wednesday 7th July 2010.
We see that you’ve been busy Christopher. What have you been up to?
I’ve been creating a positive organic energy for the launch of my book, “A Ticket to Prosperity,” and have also been talking at human potential events.
How does it feel speaking to a crowd rather than playing music?
Playing music and talking to people are totally different. But I see them both as healing people. I used to heal people through my music, playing and remixing records. Now I do it by talking and sharing spiritual principles that can help people.
You’ve attracted wide spread attention by gaining applause in Hollywood. Tell us more?
This was not planned. At 23, when I was travelling the world as a DJ, I had no idea that I would write a book and talk at events on spiritual principles. It’s mind blowing. As for the endorsements, it just came together organically. It’s beyond my wildest dreams!
Who is your favourite DJ?
I haven’t a favourite but I could give you a list of names off the top of my head: Tony Humphries, David Morales, Paul “Trouble” Anderson, Chris Samba and MAW. I am a young old school kid at heart.
Although you are not DJing on the circuit anymore, what is your favourite club and do you still go clubbing?
Club Deep in LA is my favourite club night. It’s a deep, soulful night that runs every Sunday evening. I am a big fan of Garage City too. I love dancing but it has to be the right energy, DJ and venue. If someone like Frankie Knuckles is in town, then chances are I’ll attend.
Who are your heroes?
Honestly? I would have to say Mickey Mouse. I love Disney!!!
Do you or would you DJ anymore?
I have no desire to be DJing in nightclubs every night. I DJ at the occasional private party but that’s as far as it goes. However, my focus is to help people through writing, talking and television.
What’s in the pipeline for Christopher Dines?
Lot’s of speaking, travelling and television appearances. I am teaming up with Mr Daniel DiCriscio in Los Angeles, creating a spiritual event to encourage people to flow with life. We want popular culture personalities talking to and sharing their experiences with the kids. It’s essential that people believe in themselves and have a clear understanding of their spiritual nature, which is all knowing and all powerful.
And finally what message do you have for the kids out there?
Create something positive in life that can help and serve people. Always seek to improve and of course, believe in what you do. There is a power much greater than you that can bring you an incredible life, if you let it. Dream your dreams and understand that you’re a winner.
