Having stated he’d relocate to Australia for quite a few years now, it seems that noted American trance DJ and producer Christopher Lawrence has finally made good on his word, with news surfacing that he has now set up shop in Melbourne. Having been based in Los Angeles for the past fourteen years, in recent times Lawrence was outspoken and critical towards many of the US government’s foreign policies and had made his intentions of moving to Australia with his family widely known.

“DJs tend to move abroad a lot. I had been thinking about moving overseas for a while and my wife is Australian, so it was a natural choice,” Lawrence remarked. “I have traveled the world and Melbourne is a fantastic city. It is very cosmopolitan. Every time I tell a DJ I’ve moved to Australia, they say it’s their favorite country to visit.”

Lawrence isn’t Melbourne’s only resident who’s world renowned dance scene, with Carl Cox also famously spending up to 3 months of each year at his property on the outskirts of the city. Like Cox, Lawrence will maintain a base outside of Australia for touring, with Los Angeles to remain his ‘home away from home’ in the US. “One thing is for sure,” Christopher laughs. “I’ll be racking up a lot of frequent flyer miles.”
