Patrick Forge (born
Ipswich ,Suffolk ) is a BritishJazz ,Jazz-dance andSoul musicDJ who spent much of the late 1980s and early 1990s DJing alongsideGilles Peterson at the famous Dingwalls club in Camden,North London .Back in the 80s, Patrick worked for Reckless Records in
London , and worked on the pirate radio station Kiss 100.When Kiss 100 FM was given a legal licence in September 1990, Patrick became one of its DJs with a once-a-week show.
His current show on Kiss 100, "The Cosmic Jam" from 0100 to 0300 on Sunday nights, used to dovetail perfectly with his old colleague
Gilles Peterson who was onBBC Radio 1 from 2300 to 0100, however Peterson's show has since moved back to its original slot on a Wednesday night, but at a later time from 0200 to 0400.The two DJs play similar styles of music, have played at numerous clubs and also
music weekenders . If anything Patrick strays more intoLatin-Jazz styles more nowadays than Gilles, but has also been known to drop tracks from Crosby Stills and Nash, Pentangle, America andEllen McIlwaine .He is also a member of Brazilian influenced group
