About Me

At 25 years old Allan Banks is turning heads, playing everything under the house banner from soulful to electro.
After spending a childhood loving the music scene and using all his money to buy music it wasn't long before he got himself a set of turntables. He didn't start pushing his music until 2006 where he qualified for the final 36 in the Turnmills find a DJ comp.
Over the past years he has met many influential people but it was only in the last 2 years that he met people that inspired him to come out from the studio and into the clubs.
Since September 2006 he has been back to Turnmills playing main room and has worked with some great people holding events at clubs such as Pacha, Brixton Jamm, The Egg & Ministry of Sound. Since becoming a regular for GrooveMonkey he has played for events such as ClubClass & Dirty @ Pacha.
Currently he holds multiple residencys in Maidstone (Get Down @ Sourcebar, GrooveMonkey @ Sourcebar & Every Saturday @ Players Bar) and one in London @ Hoxtons finest Club & Bar "Zigfrid". The future see more production work including triple track releases in Q1 2009, gigs in Paris & Madrid and more work back in his hometown of Maidstone in the UK.
