Goldman Sachs chief executive David Solomon — who also goes by the moniker DJ D-Sol — says he has real estate moguls Steve Wynn and Sheldon Adelson and '90s dance veteran Paul Oakenfold to thank for his love of house music.

Solomon, who has led the US bank since October 2018, told The Boardroom: Out of Office podcast that he had been more of a “Bruce Springsteen guy” before stumbling into electronic music around 10 years ago.
