Biography
editBorn in Strasbourg, France, under the name of Noël Fuchs, Dr Mu moved to London in the mid-80s, but it was not until the mid-90s that his music career took off. He was a resident DJ at Heaven and Turnmills, two major nightclubs in London, and a guest DJ across the UK and Europe. He carried on performing in more underground clubs almost until the end of his life.[1]
Dr Mu also wrote his own music, released on several labels and remixed by various artists. His second single release, which sampled an Inuit folk tune by an elder from the town of Qaanaaq, Greenland, was acclaimed in the music press.[2]
