The Love Dove Generation centres around the east London rave scene of the late ’80s/early ’90s and is the autobiography of Daniel Light, professionally known as Billy “Daniel” Bunter, who started out as Britain’s youngest rave DJ aged just 15. Daniel rose to the top of the pile at the legendary Labrynth, 12 Dalston Lane, E8 before embarking on a global career in music that continues to this day. This book not only reveals Daniel’s ascent from the backstreets and markets of Wood Green, north London, but also chronicles the progression of the UK rave scene – with contributions from The Prodigy, Slipmatt, Mark Archer (Altern 8), Eamon Downes (Liquid), Rat Pack, Kenny Ken, Uncle Dugs, Jon Doe and many more... including Joe “Labrynth” Wieczorek who created the infamous club that established the Billy “Daniel” Bunter name.
From the sleeve,
“Twenty five years ago, when I first started out in the rave scene, I never really had a plan; I just knew that music had to be part of my daily life. It’s mad to think I have gone from selling spuds to DJing all over the world, releasing gold-selling albums in the process – and now I have written and published my very own book. Life has been full of ups and downs, with good times and bad, but I’m still here to tell the story. I hope you enjoy reading about my life as much as I’ve enjoyed living it.”

The book has been written with Andrew Wood who has written about music for The Daily Telegraph, Guardian Guide and Select and has interviewed numerous musicians and bands including Beastie Boys, Happy Mondays and Primal Scream. Andrew was formerly Deputy Editor of Loaded magazine.
