Veris is about records: digging , collecting and playing them out, in something like that order.
I've been doing this from about 1987 and can be seen as part of a generation of DJ's and collectors who have been heavily influenced by Hip-Hop and it's surrounding culture. Electro, Chicago and Detroit house were and still are an important influence, I was lucky enough to grow up in Manchester (UK) where all these genres were celebrated together. This open mind policy has filtered through in to my DJ'ing and the evenings I have promoted over the years such as 'press' and my current project 'the program'. My collecting has touched on early Hardcore/proto Drum'n'bass, Electronica, Deep House, Detroit Techno, new and old Electro, US Garage..... ..Funk, Soul, Psych, Library, Jazz, Funky Reggae, Brazilian funk, Island Funk, Soundtracks.........
The Program has been running since 2002 and was started with my close friend Dean Bradley ( Left hand Corner). It continues to run in many venues and guises - please check the events listings for future programs.
